People protest in Liverpool, August 3, 2024

THREE men have been jailed for violent disorder following far-right riots in Liverpool and Southport.

Liam James Riley, Derek Drummond and Declan Geiran were sentenced at Liverpool Crown Court today.

The unrest came in the wake of the fatal stabbings of Bebe King, 6, Elsie Dot Stancombe, 7, and Alice Dasilva Aguiar, 9, in Southport last week.
