PROTESTS will take place this weekend to rally against a far-right group called Unite the Kingdom.

Stand Up to Racism has called counterdemonstrations in London, Liverpool, Derby, Portsmouth, Swansea, Leeds, Nottingham and Ipswich.

Unite the Kingdom uses slogans associated with fascist agitator Tommy Robinson, real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, including “stop the boats” and “save our kids,” and has been linked to the far-right violence which erupted in the summer.
