Metropolitan Police commissioner Sir Mark Rowley argued that 70% of rioters already 'have criminal backgrounds' charged previously with criminal damage, violence and football banning orders, while more arrests are being made.
Sir Keir Starmer was yesterday accused of having 'no plan' for reducing migration as he dodged questions about it in the wake of the riots. The Prime Minister was asked whether now was the time to acknowledge 'underlying tensions' in communities over record migration levels in recent years.
He said: 'There's been too much immigration in this country for too long and a huge proportion of the population knows that. So there are underlying tensions, fears and problems. And now that the thuggery and crime seems to have abated, we need to have a measured national conversation about that and I'm amazed that that's not recognised by the Government.'

The figures appear to show that former PM Rishi Sunak was right when he claimed that migrants were 'queueing up' in Calais waiting for a Labour government to scrap the Tories' flagship immigration policy.
The Prime Minister told reporters: 'Anybody involving themselves in disorder, whatever they claim their motive, will feel the full force of the law.' Saying that the sentences yesterday 'sent a very powerful message', he added: 'It is important that we don't let up here.'
