Prime Minister Keir Starmer said people have a right to peaceful protest after more than 100,000 demonstrators joined an anti-immigration march in London on Saturday. But he condemned assaults on police officers and warned against intimidation based on race or background.
The march, organised by far-right activist Tommy Robinson, drew around 110,000 people waving English and Union Jack flags. Police said 26 officers were injured after being kicked, punched, and struck with bottles. At least 25 arrests were made, with more expected.

Starmer defended the values he said define modern Britain. “Our flag represents our diverse country and we will never surrender it to those that use it as a symbol of violence, fear and division,” he said.
