Tyler Kay and Jordan Parlour sentenced to 38 months and 20 months in prison respectively for stirring up racial hatred online during the summer riots.

Tyler Kay , 26 , and Jordan parlour, 28 , have been sentenced to prison terms for their posts.

But some posts that did not cross the line into criminality may still have real-life consequences.

UK ’s head of counter-terror policing, Assistant Commissioner Matt Jukes , said “X was an enormous driver” of posts that contributed to the disorder.

He says there were about 1,200 referrals - posts flagged to police by members of the public - alone in relation to the riots.

But Mr Jukes found Telegram , host of several large groups in which disorder was organised, hard to deal with.
