Nearly 6,000 public order officers are being mobilised to respond to any disorder in the coming days, according to police sources.<\/p>\n
The Metropolitan Police said it was “aware” of events planned in parts of London on Wednesday and would “use every power, tactic and tool available to prevent further scenes of disorder”.<\/p>\n
Earlier the director of public prosecutions, Stephen Parkinson, told the BBC prosecutors were considering terrorism offences for some suspects.<\/p>\n
He also said his teams would consider seeking the extradition of social media influencers allegedly playing a role in the disorder from abroad.<\/p>\n
Separately, Jordan Parlour, 28, from Leeds, appeared before magistrates to indicate a guilty plea to a charge of using threatening words or behaviour intending to stir up racial hatred, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said.<\/p>\n
The CPS said the charge related to a series of Facebook posts made by Parlour in connection with disorder in Leeds on 3 August about attacking a hotel where asylum seekers were housed.<\/p>\n
He has been remanded in custody until a sentencing hearing on Friday.<\/p>\n
The government also said on Tuesday said it would make more than 500 new prison places available to ensure those taking part in the violence could be jailed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
