We have identified a number of people we want to speak to in connection with a range of offences and we are asking for the public's help to track them down We know people may have travelled from outside of London, so we're asking for people across the country to take a look at those pictured
Sit Down was used in a video posted by Robinson on X that was highlighting the size of the protest. In his own post on the platform shortly after 5pm on Saturday, when many of the protesters were still gathered around Whitehall and Trafalgar Square, Booth criticised the activist for including the 1989 record in his content. The 65-year-old said: Disgusted to see the cynical use of Sit Down by TRobinsonNewEra. No permission was granted, and we are looking into our options.
Scotland Yard said there had initially been no incidents of note as both groups marched towards Whitehall, but as the marches met one another on either end of the street, divided by metal barriers and lines of police, some supporters had tried to breach the line that was put in place to keep the groups apart. Skirmishes broke out with the Met police confirming officers were targeted with thrown objects.
