Foreign Office Minister Andrew Mitchell says the violence in Knowsley was 'completely unacceptable'.
The government has said it is trying to stop the "excessive use of hotels" to house asylum seekers after violence outside accommodation in Merseyside.
"Often they are caught in desperate jeopardy, but equally we have a duty to house them appropriately and to work with local people. Sir George Howarth MP, Labour MP for Knowsley, said the protest was triggered by "an alleged incident posted on social media". He said the protest initially involved "mostly women and children" but "kids with masks and balaclavas" later arrived.
