None

LONDON—Hundreds of police officers lined the streets of London and Birmingham on Saturday to prevent far-right demonstrators from clashing with rival anti-fascism groups on a day of protest following deadly attacks in Britain.

 

In the country's second biggest city Birmingham, dozens of members of the far-right group Britain First took to the streets waving national flags and chanting "Britain First, Fighting Back".

 

Banners declared it was "Time to fight Islamic Terror".
