In today’s programme on Radio re:volt, we delve into the unsettling wave of violence sweeping across the UK. With over a hundred arrests following right-wing riots, cities from Hull to Bristol are reeling. Central to these disturbances is a tragic stabbing by a British-born individual of Rwandan descent in Southport, which has been falsely attributed to an asylum seeker, amplifying xenophobic attacks. We connect with Ren, a dedicated activist from F-strike, who has been at the forefront of feminist demonstrations in the UK. She brings us her first-hand insights into the surge of anti-Muslim rallies, the recent counter-demonstration in Belfast promoting unity, and the concerning shift in public discord.
