Two major protests are taking place on Saturday in London, with the Metropolitan police warning it may be one of its busiest days in recent years.
Tens of thousands of people are expected to march for Unite the Kingdom, an event arranged by far-right activist Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, better known as Tommy Robinson, and the annual pro-Palestine Nakba Day march.
