Parliament Square Reopens After Trump and Tommy Robinson Rallies

Roads to Return to Normal Soon
That lingering protest is now fading away. Authorities expect the traffic and road networks to be fully up and running shortly.
Violence and Arrests Rock Westminster Protest
Assistant General Secretary of the RMT Union, Steve Hedley, was attacked this afternoon amid the unrest. Police have arrested 12 people so far:
- One woman on suspicion of violent disorder
- Two men for public order offences
- One man over fireworks offences
- Eight men for assault at Storey’s Gate, Westminster
All eight men arrested for assault have been taken to a central London police station. The situation remains under close watch.
