Police and far-right protesters clash near Cenotaph

Clashes broke out in central London on Saturday as rightwing protesters attempted to reach the Cenotaph war memorial. Protesters could be heard chanting ‘You’re not English any more’ at the police as they pushed against metal barriers in Whitehall. The clashes happened moments before the Armistice Day two-minute silence, when people across the UK commemorate the end of the first world war. The protest was held to counter a pro-Palestinian march through London taking place just after midday
