Haven't heard about any riot in central London. Is there a chance you are referring to the Liverpool Street (a place in London), rather than Liverpool (a city)?

London

More than 100 demonstrators were arrested after clashes with officers in Whitehall on Wednesday night.

During the protest, staged under the title of Enough is Enough, fireworks and flares were let off near a statue of Winston Churchill and towards the gates of Downing Street.

The angry scenes also included loud chants of “We want our country back” and “Oh Tommy Robinson,” referring to the rightwing activist whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon.

Dame Lynne Owens, the deputy commissioner of the Metropolitan police, condemned the “hateful behaviour” towards officers.
