There's calls for the army to be deployed in the UK, where violent demonstrations are escalating for a seventh day.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer has labelled the outbreaks as 'far-right thuggery'.

They've continued to escalate since last week's stabbing rampage at a dance class left three children dead and several injured.

This morning, 10 police officers have been injured trying to stop a group storming a Rotherham hotel housing asylum seekers.

UK correspondent Kay Oliver says politicians from all sides agree this is violence, rather than protests.

"We've got Hamza Yousaf, he's a former First Minister of Scotland, saying this situation is so out of control now that the army should be brought in."

More than 140 people have been arrested across Britain so far.
