One out of every five people arrested after their participation in the 2024 summer riots has since been reported to the police for domestic abuse, the Guardian can disclose.
Police data released under freedom of information (FoI) laws shows that 21% of 949 people arrested for taking part in the violent disorder have been reported for crimes associated with intimate partner violence since August 2024.

Nothing quite like protecting our women and children from these dastardly foreigners

“For individuals arrested by Cumbria police, this figure was as high as 54%.
Offences for which alleged rioters have since been reported include common assault, controlling and coercive behaviour, breach of domestic violence protection notice and injunctions, threats to kill, actual bodily harm, and criminal damage.
The Guardian previously revealed that two out of every five arrested for participating in the riots had been the subject of a domestic abuse report before their involvement in the public disorder.
Calls to protect women and children alongside anti-migrant rhetoric have been a common feature of these rallies.”
Jesus what’s going on in Cumbria?! And the irony of calls to protect women and children having been a common feature of the rallies, the “jokes” write themselves.

Doesn’t most domestic abuse go unreported? I’d guess the number would be much higher.

That’s nice, what do you intend to do with this information?
Rioters, are obviously going to have higher agression rates and more likely to have a past.

We really need to stop public policy being dictated by our most outspoken, violent thugs.

Someone really needs to work out the per capita number for right wing supporters offending rates. If somethings up we need a public enquiry focused exclusively on their culture, lifestyle and religion.

How the hell are men like this even able to find relationships in the first place? You obviously can’t blame victims here – many men put up a facade and few advertise their violent tendencies but it isn’t as if these men are attractive, successful or have good social skills.

I had a quick google of the percent of people in the UK as a whole who are victims of domestic violence, and it came back as 1 in 5.

The type of people from my town that were at the unite the kingdom march were the drug dealers, violent criminals and domestic abusers. No doubt they were there to protect our own. They could try not selling heroin in our town, but hey that’s just my lefty woke opinion.

Problem with these guys they are control freaks and there response when things aren’t the way they like, they respond with violence. Wife not doing what they want them to do – beat her. Seeing to many black and brown people around the place – smash the place up. They’re thin skinned men who can’t accept that the world isn’t the way they want it.

Less than 24% of domestic violence cases are reported. There’s a good chance the other other 4/5 just haven’t been reported.

So these people are literally the scum of society looking for ways to spread their criminality to those outside their house. Thats why they want “immigrants” to integrate, so they’re easier to target!
