Lee Anderson spoke to Mansfield 103.2's Tony Delahunty about the disorder that has struck many UK towns and cities following the knife attack on a children's club in Southport last week.
Sir Keir Starmer says the criminal justice system has shown a "robust and swift response" in the face of ongoing riots in the UK - after chairing his second Cobra meeting on the issue.
Officers have 30 protests on their radar today - following days of violence and disorder.
The Prime Minister warned anyone involved that they will likely be dealt with by the law, within a week from arrest.
The riots were sparked by misinformation online - following last week's stabbings in Southport.
Lee Anderson told Mansfield 103.2's Director of News that the civil unrest has been bubbling up for some time due to the immigration issue.
