Good Morning Britain's Ed Balls and Ranvir Singh fight back tears and admit 'it's hard to talk' after heart-wrenching tribute to Southport stabbing victims


Good Morning Britain's Ed Balls and Ranvir Singh fought back tears as they discussed the tragic stabbings in Southport on Wednesday's show.

Elsie Dot Stancombe was killed alongside six-year-old Bebe King and nine-year-old Alice Dasilva Aguiar in a horrific knife rampage on Monday at a Taylor Swift-themed summer holiday dance workshop. And today the coastal community united to bring order back to their quiet streets - on local Facebook groups some offered their rooms to people who needed a safe space, while others organised clean up crews to remove the carnage of the night before. On nearby St Luke's Street, rioters chanting 'English till I die' surrounded the Southport Mosque and Islamic Cultural Centre and began hurling rubble at police officers who had formed a protective line around the building.
