Officers have announced that they are closely monitoring the activities of counter-protesters during the Armistice Day commemoration in central London. While the two minutes of silence on Whitehall were observed respectfully and without incident, law enforcement has encountered aggression from counter-protesters, who have gathered in significant numbers in the area.
In a statement, the police force emphasised that the far-right crowds present are not a unified group, but rather comprised of different factions. The counter-protesters have begun dispersing into various parts of central London, prompting the authorities to track their movements closely.
The police force has made it clear that they will take all necessary measures to prevent any potential confrontation between the counter-protesters and the main protest, which is scheduled to depart from Park Lane later in the day. Officers have vowed to utilise all available powers and tactics to ensure the safety and security of all participants.
