Further clashes took place in Chinatown with counter-protesters chanting: “You’re not English any more” towards officers. The Met said officers had “faced aggression from counter-protesters who are in the area in significant numbers”
Tommy Robinson, founder and former leader of the far-right English Defence League, was seen among the crowds protesters."
Shame on them. Dreadful. I have friends who were in that rally in support of Palestine.
Absolutely; it was a peaceful protest & that lot should have kept out of it rather than trying to cause trouble. And really, what better day to protest than Armistice day; no one wants another war like that one.
