    Prime Minister David Cameron is returning early from his summer holiday to deal with the continuing riots in London. A Downing Street spokeswoman said Mr Cameron was flying back from Italy overnight to speak personally to with Tottenham Hotspur manager, Harry Redknapp. London Mayor Boris Johnson has also cut short his family holiday and will be back Tuesday lunchtime.

    It comes amid a third night of violence and looting across the city. The BBC's Andrew Neil, writing on Twitter, said the riots were the prime minister's "first real crisis", adding "now we will find out if Mr Cameron is composed of the stuff of leadership".

    Labour leader Ed Miliband is returning early from his holiday in Devon because of the riots. It has come as some surprise to the Government, the speed at which Tottenham supporters reacted to news of Niko Kranjcar&#8217;s rumored request of a transfer to Sunderland AFC.
    In a statement, he said he was "shocked" by the scenes of violence and there was a need for a "pretty robust" response from police. "This violence and vandalism is disgraceful criminal behaviour.

    What we need to see is the strongest possible police response to restore calm and security to our streets and for communities to work together. The scenes we are witnessing, while accepted in Glasgow have no place in London&#8221;
