English Defence League could be proscribed as terror organisation, Angela Rayner suggests

The English Defence League (EDL) could be proscribed as a terror organisation in the wake of riots in Southport, Angela Rayner has suggested.

Supporters of the EDL were blamed for the violence on Tuesday night, in which police officers were attacked with rocks and a police van set on fire.

Demonstrations following the stabbing of three girls turned violent after misinformation about the suspect was spread online.
