Lynch partook in calling the mis-targeted „child killers“ and „rapists“ amongst other abuses. https://amp.theguardian.com/uk-news/article/2024/aug/22/peter-lynch-61-jailed-for-nearly-three-years-for-role-in-rotherham-riot https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/edl-southport-riots-tommy-robinson-english-defence-league-b2588631.html https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cl4y0453nv5o https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/southport-attack-riots-far-right-social-media-b2588628.html https://www.thetimes.com/uk/crime/article/the-extremists-stoking-hate-from-hooligan-firms-to-fascist-fight-club-h90qdq569
