"The police van was completely blown up and there were a lot of fires," the head of the charity said.

Protesters who turned violent outside a hotel housing asylum seekers in Merseyside have been condemned by police and MPs.

The founder of the refugee charity said she felt "really scared" and as if she had entered a "war zone" when protesters clashed with police outside a hotel where asylum seekers were staying in Merseyside on Friday.
