EDL protesters outflanked
A SO-CALLED “Brexit betrayal” march led by far-right extremist Tommy Robinson was “vastly” outnumbered by counter-demonstrators, opposition organisers said.
The English Defence League (EDL) founder and Ukip members marched with supporters through the streets of London yesterday before a rally beside Parliament Square.
Amid fears of violence, Scotland Yard placed restrictions on the march as well as on a counter-demonstration organised by Labour supporters and anti-fascists.
Among those marching against Robinson’s crowd were Labour grassroots group Momentum and Unite Against Fascism.
