ANTI-RACISM campaigners mobilised in Llanelli in Wales and in the Yorkshire coastal town of Scarborough on Saturday to counter far-right protesters.

A bedraggled group of about 30 racists from the Yorkshire Patriot group staged an anti-immigrant protest but were heavily outnumbered by about 80 anti-racist counter protesters.

A spokesperson for Stand Up to Racism (SUTR), which organised the counter protest, said: “The racists were a real rag-tag bunch. They looked very miserable.”
