Chaotic new police footage shows mayhem that erupted across Manchester in far-right riots

Newly-released police footage shows how far-right riots brought mayhem to the streets of Greater Manchester. In Newton Heath thugs smashed the windscreen of a bus and tried to kick in the doors and bricks and bottles were hurled at police as dozens gathered outside a hotel housing asylum seekers.

One clip shows a bare-chested man launching a missile at riot police, while another shows a woman hurling abuse at the officers.
