In this report, producer Laura runs through the events that unfolded in Walthamstow last night.

    I think at this point you're more than a Producer Laura.
  • THOSE WHO ARE RIOTING ARE MOST DEFINITELY NOT DOING THIS IN MY OR MY FAMILY'S NAME.

    White English man here very proud of my English patriots out at this protest. The far right have no place in my country. No matter your colour, religion if you love your country be proud to love it and show these thugs how our differences make us great
  • Norwich south mp, clive lewis, turned up to support a group of anti racists near a hotel in Norwich. He was told not too by the party and showed up. Respect
  • Damn, Jo (the first lady they interviewed) really knows how to speak truth to power. We need strong speakers like her to voice this protest and make it clear that the racists of the EDL don't speak for us. Get that woman in a room with politicians as soon as possible.

    They weren't complaining about "2-tier policing" in Brighton after cowering behind the police line for 3 hours 🤣
  • @mehmetemin4713
    Good to see the real values of ordinary British people out in the public, not shut down by the lines of the political parties, the media and the fascists who peddle their views as our "true" values.
  • So refreshing to hear sensible normal decent people expressing common sense and empathy. If I was a police officer I would be secretly relieved that they ignored requests to stay at home. I am also dosappointed that Labour didnt do more to call out Tory hate speech while in opposition.
  • I'm glad to see Britons standing up for their children and their country finally
  • @holdmusic_
    Our grandparents fought a war against people with their attitude and ideologies for 5 years. My grandfather sacrificed the innocence of his youth to defend our peaceful existence. That's true patriotism. The people in this video are true patriots for continuing that important legacy.
