More than 100 people were arrested in London on Wednesday night following a far-right protest in Whitehall, with further unrest in Hartlepool, Manchester and Aldershot.
On Tuesday night, an angry mob took to the streets of Southport after a vigil to remember victims of the mass stabbing at the workshop attended by 25 children.
False claims online that the suspect was an asylum seeker who had arrived in the UK by boat had sparked the initial riot, despite pleas from the mother of one of the victims for calm.
The three girls killed in the Southport stabbings were previously named as Bebe King, six; Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven; and Alice Dasilva Aguiar, nine.
Two adults were also left in critical condition after intervening to try and save the children attending the class.
The 17-year-old arrested on suspicion of murder and attempted murder following the knife attack was named as Axel Rudakubana on Thursday.
A legal restriction, preventing him from being named, was lifted by the judge in the case.
Rudakubana is also accused of the attempted murders of eight more children, along with dance teacher Leanne Lucas, 35, and businessman John Hayes.
Up until now, the teenager’s identity could not be revealed because suspects under 18 receive automatic anonymity in all UK court cases, except for in exceptional circumstances.
Rudakubana, who spent the entire 55 minutes of the hearing covering his whole face, with his grey sweatshirt pulled up to his hairline, and at times rocking back and forth and side to side, will next appear at Liverpool Crown Court on October 25.
A provisional trial date, lasting six weeks, was scheduled for January 20, next year.
Judge Menary told the defendant, who did not acknowledge the judge and continued to keep his head down: “You are remanded to youth detention accommodation until these proceedings have been completed.
