@dalias @liztai I don't think the "protests" by the far-right have ever *not* been violent. But it was previously "I'm a drunken yob who thinks he can punch a few police officers because it's my right as an Englishman" and scuffles broke out. Now it's full-on broken windows and torching stuff.
I guess the election didn't help either. Now we have the Labour party in power for the first time in 14 years and they're not seeing their racist dreams in government manifestos and they don't like it.
