The riots, sparked by the tragic murder of three young girls at a Taylor Swift-themed dance studio in Southport, have led to widespread chaos, including injured police officers, looted shops, and a burned hotel. Mibengé and Chris discuss the role of disinformation surrounding the suspect's identity and its impact on anti-immigrant rhetoric.
