They gathered in central London ahead of a pro-Palestine demonstration on Armistice Day
Counter-protesters gathered near the Cenotaph in central London ahead of a pro-Palestine demonstration on Armistice Day which is expected to be one of the largest political marches in British history. A large crowd of people bearing St George’s flags was seen walking along Embankment and shouting “England till I die” shortly after 10am on Saturday.
Clashes broke out as police attempted to stop them from reaching Whitehall but the group pushed through, with some shouting “let’s have them” as officers hit out with batons. A service took place at the Cenotaph on Whitehall at 11am, which passed off peacefully, and a two-minute silence was observed.
Organisers of the demonstration calling for a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel anticipate more than 500,000 people will join. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has issued a plea for “unity” amid tensions over the march on the day the UK marks the end of the First World War. On the eve of the mass protest, the Prime Minister said in a statement: “It is because of those who fought for this country and for the freedom we cherish that those who wish to protest can do so, but they must do so respectfully and peacefully. Remembrance weekend is sacred for us all and should be a moment of unity, of our shared British values and of solemn reflection.”
