Yvette Cooper thanks police as major far-right riots fail to materialise
Briefly

Yvette Cooper praised police for handling far-right riots that did not occur, with anti-racism protests instead dominating. Most towns and cities remained calm after previous violent disorder.
Despite preparations for 100 far-right demonstrations, only a few anti-immigration protests happened. The majority of people engaged peacefully with officers. A small group caused trouble in Croydon.
At least 15 arrests were made in London, with offenses including assault, breach of orders, and possession of offensive weapons. Antisocial behavior occurred in Croydon, unrelated to protests.
