More than 100,000 protesters have packed central London for the ‘Unite the Kingdom’ rally with the Metropolitan Police declaring “it is not possible” for more people to march towards parliament.
The MET Police confirmed “there was a very large turnout” with roughly 110,000 protesters gathering in central London.
“It is not possible for any more people to get into Bridge Street, Parliament Street or Whitehall,” the MET Police said on X.
“We’re working with organisers to provide exit routes for the crowds.
“We’d ask people to follow the organisers’ calls to remain calm.”
The police added that its officers were “having to intervene in multiple locations” to stop protesters from accessing “sterile areas”.
Police added that officers were also stopping protesters from breaching police cordons or getting to opposing groups.
“A number of officers have been assaulted,” the MET Police said.
