British police have raided and arrested an 11-year-old child for participating in a spate of recent anti-immigration protests, some of which turned violent.
Local police confirmed the arrest of the child on Thursday as they widen their crackdown against political dissidents and those who participated in the demonstrations.
The Evening Standard reports:
Police have arrested an 11-year-old boy suspected of taking part in riots in the North East earlier this month. The young boy was one of 14 people arrested during a series of raids in Teesside carried out by Cleveland Police in the early hours of Wednesday.
The force has now arrested 110 people following the widespread trouble in Hartlepool and Middlesbrough, which was some of the worst seen in recent history.
Before police officers set out to carry out raids on Wednesday morning, Superintendent Marc Anderson briefed them, saying: “I was Silver Commander on Sunday August 4 and never in my 30 years’ service have I seen anything like that in Middlesbrough.”
“What the community had to put up with that day was completely unacceptable.”
While some protesters likely engaged in criminal activity, the police are under orders from the country’s new left-wing government to come down hard on anyone involved in the recent disorder.

During the summer of 2020, similar violent protests broke out across Britain in response to the death of George Floyd and the global Black Lives Matter movement.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who was then just leader of the opposition, made clear his support for protests and even photographed himself “taking the knee” in support of Marxist uprising.

Meanwhile, the government and law enforcement are also turning their eye towards censoring or even shutting down social media, after Elon Musk’s X platform was blamed for outbreak of violence because of his support for free speech.
