Help

Rioting has spread across London on a third night of violence, with unrest flaring in other English cities.

An extra 1,700 police officers were deployed in London, where shops were looted and buildings were set alight.

Shops and restaurants were damaged in Ealing, west London, and there was a fire in Haven Green park opposite Ealing Broadway station.

Liz Pilgrim, a small business owner from Ealing, described the rioters who looted her premises as 'feral rats'.
