Footage appeared to show people throwing objects at the police vehicle before it was pushed over in Harehills, just east of the city centre. Police said they were called in and found an ‘ongoing disturbance’ involving agency workers and children. More people started to arrive and the agency workers and children were taken to a safe place.

Shameful- How anyone can think, this is ok ?
Surely the Guardian headline is missing the words 'mostly peaceful' at the start?
What have you done British government ?? You have imported the 3rd world shame on you!!!!
BBC gone a bit quiet on this…………surprise!
The video seems to suggest this happened in Leedistan and not Leeds in England……phew…wait what?
What’s the reason for riots
Sky news no comments YouTube wonder why
I noticed that this is all over far right sights across the world.
nothing on the bbc
Why they rioting?
Unrest….. is that what you are calling imported sectarian violence?
Even the Guardian covered this before the BBC 😂
I blame Farage 🤡
Seems to be one demographic of society 🤔
Ah, unusually for the Guardian, we’re allowed to comment on these stories for once. Let me stretch my legs for a minute….
Looking forward the hearing the left try and blame this on white people
Eastern European Roma community at its best 😂😂😂
In singapore these guys would have been canned . If they are migrants they would be deported . The uk has become too soft. What a disgrace.
Banana Republic
SKY NEWS: 'Police car turned over as unrest breaks out in Leeds.'
Why are the comments turned off?
THE GOVERNMENT WOULD NEVER BE, RIGHT…?
I MEAN IT'S NOT LIKE IT HAS EVER HAPPENED BEFORE.
Sorry why bring violence into this ?
Stop benefits
Porkis innit
obviously a lack of diversity is to blame here
Is this the riot in East London 🤔
This must be the Far-right, right wing that Owen Jones has warned us about 😱🙄🤡🌍
Britain's no go zones expand by the day.
Leeds is lost. This will only get worse .
Peaceful community again 😂
