Londoners are set for a peaceful Easter, as there are no major protests or demonstrations scheduled for the bank holiday weekend.
Demonstrators and activists taking to the streets have become a regular occurrence in the capital in recent months.
An estimated half a million people marched through London’s streets last weekend in what organisers have called the “biggest ever anti-far right demo”.
Protesters carrying placards saying “No to racism, no to Trump”, and “Refugees welcome” marched through the capital to Whitehall amid a heavy police presence, with officers lining the streets.
In September, far-right activist Tommy Robinson led a Unite the Kingdom rally through the capital, which was attended by between 110,000 and 150,000 people, while about 5,000 were involved in an anti-racism counter-demonstration.
