100 people charged over Britain's week of riots: Woman who used fiery wheelie bin as a battering ram and Facebook hate posters among those rounded up by police - amid fears of six more rallies tonight

100 people have now been charged over Britain's week of riots, the Crown Prosecution Service chief has confirmed as he warned influences whipping up hatred from abroad that they are not 'safe' from prosecution.

Director of Public Prosecutions Stephen Parkinson has said thugs could face terrorism charges as the legal system fights to bring offenders to justice.

It comes amid fears of six more rallies hitting the country's streets tonight, with police anticipating a busy day on Wednesday as they monitor reports of at least 30 possible gatherings.

Far-right thugs are now plotting attacks on immigration lawyers, with a list of 36 solicitors' firms, refugee shelters and advice agencies shared on a Telegram group with more than 14,000 alongside a call to attack them at a specific time tomorrow night.

More than 400 people have now been arrested in the wake of seven days worth of disorder. Mr Parkinson said around 100 charges have been laid so far.

The CPS chief hit out at those who had used the internet for the 'purposes of incitement and planning', telling the BBC: 'If you're engaged in that activity, then you can be prosecuted for the substantive offence that you have caused (due) to what you've been doing using the internet.'

And in a warning to those acting outside the UK, Mr Parkinson said: 'Some people are abroad. That doesn't mean they're safe.
