On Friday's Backchat, Global Focus talks about the unrest in the UK.
Violent protests have erupted across Britain after false social media posts claimed a foreign asylum seeker was responsible for the fatal stabbing of three children. Far-right extremists attacked mosques and migrant accommodation, prompting both Hong Kong and a number of countries to issue travel warnings.
But Prime Minister Keir Starmer vowed to bring an end to what he called "far right thuggery" and warned that the perpetrators will feel the "full force of the law".
So how powerful has social media been in fuelling disinformation? How challenging are these events for the new government? Are police and judicial authorities coping?
