Parliament was recalled for a day on Thursday. The Prime Minister made a statement and a debate took place, led by the Home Secretary, giving the opportunity for the House to come together in condemnation of the crimes and stand together in determination to rebuild the affected communities.
Graham, who returned to London to take part in the debate, said: 'I am utterly disgusted by this thoughtless violence that has destroyed so many homes and businesses and left many people across the country in fear.
'I want to put my thanks on the record for the police who have put themselves at risk to take back our streets, especially those that volunteered to return from leave. It is vital that no false arguments about Human Rights get in the way of the police's efforts to enforce the law.'
Locally, Cheshire Police were very proactive, arresting two men from Runcorn and one from Northwich for inciting criminality via social media sites.
Graham continued to comment on the causes of the violence: 'There will be a lot of reflection in the coming days and weeks about what has happened but one thing is clear, this is about deep rooted problems in sections of our society, this isn't about cuts or young people not having enough to do. This is about a sense of entitlement. This is what happens when there are families with three generations who have never had a job and certain schools where one in five children leave unable to read.
'This is the broken society that we have been warning about. And there is no more room for people to roll their eyes or to scoff at these warnings. It's in our faces and on our high streets now.
'This is why we have to reform our school system and tackle welfare dependency. This is why we need to put responsibility and respect back at the centre of our society. And I fully support the Coalition Government's plans to do so.'
