The violence over the past week in Britain has been horrifying. Sparked initially by the killing of three children on July 29th, the disorder has taken on a life of its own. Thousands have taken part in riots; violence has spread to 22 towns and cities. White nationalists have attacked mosques, asylum hotels and Muslim neighbourhoods and businesses. It is hard to judge how quickly it will all burn out. Plans for more action, this time targeting immigration lawyers, are circulating among agitators on messaging apps such as WhatsApp and Telegram.
