Debate Over 'Two-Tier' Policing Intensifies Amid UK Riots
As far-right violence escalates, politicians and police leaders reject claims of biased law enforcement.
- Far-right riots in the UK have led to accusations of 'two-tier' policing, suggesting bias against right-wing protesters.
- Prominent figures like Elon Musk and Nigel Farage have amplified these claims, despite strong denials from officials.
- Critics argue that the term 'two-tier policing' misrepresents the difference between peaceful protests and violent riots.
