00:00We will talk about the situation in the UK after the 29th of July, which was very disturbing.

00:06Where did this whole thing start?

00:08What is the latest update on this?

00:10In the segment of the programme, we will talk about it.

00:12On 29th July, in the north-western region of the UK, in Southport,

00:16after the death of at least three children in a dance class,

00:19violent protests started in several cities across the country.

00:22Immediately after the attack, wrong news was spread in social media posts

00:26that the suspect was looking for political asylum,

00:29who had reached the UK by boat in 2023,

00:32and baseless rumours were spread that he was a Muslim.

00:36After spreading the news on social media,

00:38protests against immigration and Muslims in the UK began.

00:42The next day, more than a thousand people

00:44participated in a protest with the protesters in Southport.

00:47Immediately after that, a riot broke out near a local mosque.

00:51People threw bricks, bottles, and other missiles at the mosque and police.

00:54In several cities across the UK,

00:56the crowd attacked the residences of mosques and shelters,

00:59set fire to cars and buildings along with the library,

01:02and the shops were looted.

01:04In Hill, Liverpool, Bristol, Manchester, Blackpool, and Belfast,

01:08there were also violent protests.

01:10According to the British police,

01:12the group on the far right in this violence

01:14was a supporter of the English Defence League.

01:16According to the British police,

01:18more than 400 people have been arrested since Tuesday, 6th August.

01:2111-year-old children are among them.

01:24The British Prime Minister,

01:26on this occasion, trusted his people

01:28and said that the people who do hooliganism

01:31will regret it.

01:52So no, I won't shy away from calling it what it is.

01:55Far-right thuggery.

01:57Be it no doubt, those that have participated in this violence

02:01will face the full force of the law.

02:05The Muslims and other communities there

02:08are afraid to say that

02:11they have never seen such a situation before.

02:15My home city, my place where I was raised,

02:19where I was born, where I can flourish

02:22and where I can succeed in.

02:24But seeing the events that have just taken place

02:27in the UK as a whole,

02:29it's really scary seeing the people writing,

02:32looting the shops.

02:33This is kind of a racism.

02:35There's no place in Liverpool like that.

02:37In Liverpool, it's not like that.

02:39You know, we always live together.

02:41Not just Muslim, not just Muslim.

02:44I'm from India.

02:46To be honest, I can't come out and tell the protesters

02:51or the people who are running towards me,

02:53hundreds of crowds,

02:54that, oh no, I'm not a Muslim.

02:55I'm from India.

02:56Please don't spare me.

02:57That's not possible.

02:58So everyone is scared.

03:02Mr. Farid Qureshi is with us now.

03:04Thank you very much from England for joining us, Farid.

03:07I told you how these incidents started.

03:10Then we saw the government response.

03:12What is the situation there now?

03:14If you could give us a detailed analysis,

03:17what is the sentiment there?

03:19What is the government's reaction?

03:21What is the mood there?

03:22Are people still scared?

03:25First of all, the government has shown its reaction.

03:27But along with that, the public has also come out.

03:29We saw two days ago,

03:31that when the far-right organizations

03:32called for demonstrations in 100 places,

03:34the peaceful citizens who were against it came out.

03:37And they were in such a large number

03:39that the far-right demonstrators were almost finished.

03:41They couldn't be seen anywhere.

03:43And in a very clear manner,

03:45the British society gave a message

03:47that in this society,

03:48there is no place for the progenitors.

03:50Overall, if you look at it,

03:51there was a fear in the Muslims

03:53in the beginning,

03:54how it was propagandized.

03:55And there is a long story behind it.

03:57It didn't happen that an incident started in Southport

03:59and then these riots started.

04:00But a media played a role in this.

04:02Twitter played a big role.

04:04Twitter's current ex,

04:06Elon Musk, tweeted.

04:08In addition to that, Nigel Farage played a big role.

04:11The leaders of EDL,

04:13Tommy Robinson,

04:14who is not in the UK right now,

04:15also played a big role in instigating this fire.

04:19But on the other hand,

04:21when the state decided

04:23that the violence against the progenitors

04:25would be dealt with strictly,

04:26we saw its practical manifestation.

04:27That within a few days,

04:28the courts started making decisions.

04:30People were punished day and night.

04:32People are still being punished.

04:34And a clear message was given

04:36that this will not be accepted.

04:38Now, if you look at it,

04:39even before the death of the children,

04:41incidents like this happened.

04:43Last year, there was a woman,

04:45a nurse from a white farm,

04:46who killed seven children.

04:48Her name was Lucy Letby.

04:50She was punished.

04:51But we didn't see any demonstration against her.

04:53In this matter,

04:54since a media campaign was launched

04:56that immigrants are the root of all problems,

04:58and the prosperity of the country

05:00is the basis of all problems,

05:02that's why they were targeted.

05:04Otherwise, if an environment

05:05hadn't been prepared in advance,

05:07we wouldn't have seen such demonstrations.

05:09People were angry.

05:11People beat them up.

05:12Police shot them.

05:13So Farid, what is the situation now?

05:15Because obviously,

05:16we are sitting here in Pakistan

05:17and watching the visuals on social media.

05:19But since you are integrated in the community,

05:21and when we talk about immigrants,

05:23apart from Pakistani, Muslim,

05:25Indians and all other people of color

05:27are also affected by this.

05:29Because when you see a hate crime,

05:31you can see the colour,

05:33but then behind it,

05:35if the community doesn't see it,

05:37then everyone can be a victim.

05:39What is the situation there now?

05:41Has there been a calm down?

05:43Yes, yes.

05:45Since these punishments started,

05:47people came out and said

05:49that we are against genocide.

05:51After that, there has been a calm down

05:53in the society.

05:55We haven't seen such incidents again.

05:57Police visited the mosques.

05:59They met the imams of the mosques.

06:01They told them that the state is with them.

06:03Politicians from different communities

06:05visited the mosques.

06:07The Prime Minister himself went to a mosque

06:09and told the Muslims that

06:11we will not allow genocide in this society.

06:13So, after this clear state,

06:15society's attitude,

06:17it has been seen that

06:19things are getting better now.

06:21The atmosphere of fear is decreasing.

06:23And it is also seen that

06:25in the areas where Muslims are less,

06:27there are more incidents.

06:29London is the capital.

06:31There are more than 40 percent

06:33immigrants here.

06:35We haven't seen such incidents here.

06:37People have given some reactions.

06:39But on a large scale,

06:41the things that have been seen in the north,

06:43in Sunderland, Liverpool, Radham,

06:45outside the immigration centers,

06:47there were no such things here.

06:49But overall, things are getting better

06:51in Britain now.

06:53The people who are dancing

06:55have also found out that

06:57we are not going to be saved.

06:59We have been sentenced to 32 months in prison.

07:01Courts have also started their work.

07:03Because of this, things are getting better.
