1. *A thug who went viral on social media when a video of him being hit by a brick in the privates while rioting in* [*Southport*](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/all-about/southport) *has been jailed. Brian Spencer, 40, from Southport drank ten pints and a litre of rum before taunting police on St Luke’s Road.*

   *The disorder broke out the day after* [*Alice Da Silva Aguiar, nine, Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, and Bebe King, six*](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-news/alice-bebe-elsie-three-little-29783261)*, were killed during a Taylor Swift-themed dance class at the Hart Space on Hart Street, just a few minutes walk away from the subsequent mass violence. Spencer, of Lytham Road, in Southport, was twice struck in the face and head by flying debris after taunting officers before turning around and being hit for the third time in the crotch with a brick.*

   *Spencer admitted violent disorder and also racially-abused a Polish patient at the Southport Hospital while awaiting treatment for his injuries. It was heard in Liverpool Crown Court today, December 23, how the painter-decorator was at the centre of the riots in the town on July 30.*

   *Spencer was taken to hospital for treatment after police were called to his brother’s home in Southport. He was put in a cubicle to sleep off his intoxication but racially abused a Polish-speaking patient and a hospital cleaner when he awoke, telling them: “Get out of our country, you don’t belong here.”*

   *More than 50 police officers were injured, with riot shields stolen and police vehicles looted and set ablaze. In interview, Spencer denied rioting and claimed he had been trying to stop others from attacking the police. But he later admitted his account was untrue, telling officers what he had done was “naughty”. Spencer, who has 12 previous convictions for 22 offences, said he had drunk 10 pints and a litre of rum before marching to the mosque.*

   *He told officers: “I just apologise again. It’s honestly not me, that. I honestly can’t apologise enough.”*

   *Spencer, of Southport, who admitted violent disorder and racially-aggravated harassment, was supported in court by friends and family. The court heard that he was already subject to the terms of an 18-month community order after kicking a police officer while drunk in December 2023.*

   *Spencer was jailed for two years and six months.*

2. He was the star of this year’s most satisfying video

3. 10 pints and a litre of rum – amazed he wasn’t in hospital after that

4. Honestly I’d say the video of him looking like a twat and getting hit in the balls should have been punishment enough. 

   How embarrassing.

5. He will be in huge danger with Muslim gangs in there too

6. Racially abusing a Polish patient at the hospital, dear me.

7. “Dr*ank ten pints and a litre of rum*”. Jesus Christ, how was he even able to stand, let alone walk after drinking all of that.
