Hundreds of far-right protesters have arrived in central London as part of a demonstration organised by Tommy Robinson, while counter-protesters have taken to Whitehall in opposition to the march.
Robinson, real name Stephen Yaxley Lennon, led the protest which set off from Victoria around 1pm with plans to march onto Parliament Square.More than 2,000 officers were deployed for the protests in London today, including up to 400 from forced outside the capital.The protest was organised by Robinson to call on the resignation of the Met Police chief Sir Mark Rowley.Posting a video on X, Robinson wrote: “We're sick of two-tiered policing and justice system in our country.
The Met assured the public ahead of the protests that enough officers would be deployed to prevent the marches in Parliament Square and Whitehall from coming together. Police also said they would be policing events related to the Champions League Final at Wembley on Saturday evening.T/Commander Louise Puddefoot, leading the operation this weekend, said: “Officers have been in discussion with the organisers of both protests in recent weeks.
