Warning: Viewer discretion is advised

Hundreds of counter-protesters have gathered at sites across the country ahead of anticipated far-Right demonstrations.

In Walthamstow, a crowd of 100 counter-protesters amassed carrying banners of ‘Oppose Tommy Robinson’ and ‘Refugees Welcome’ amid fears that far-Right agitators are planning to target an immigration lawyer’s office in the town centre.

Elsewhere in London, hundreds of counter-protesters gathered outside an immigration advice centre in Brentford and there was a counter-demonstration by the old fire station in Hackney.

Around 50 counter-demonstrators have also gathered outside a migrant centre in Birmingham and there are between 300 and 300 of them in Brighton.

It comes as police forces brace for more than 100 far-Right demonstrations and 30 counter-protests tonight. Almost 4,000 riot officers have been deployed across the country and a further 2,000 are on standby.

GP surgeries closed early and City workers were told to leave the office amid fears that staff and patients could be caught up in the unrest.
