Today, we look at the almost 400 arrests made after violence across the country over the past six days.

Sir Keir Starmer chaired an emergency meeting of Cobra on Monday morning to discuss the government’s response to the violent disorder. He announced a ‘standing army’ of police officers to help tackle the riots.
