Hundreds of thousands of people expected at London march against the far right – live

Together Alliance march begins in central London at midday; a separate event organised by the Palestine Coalition is also taking place

The anti-discrimination group Stand Up to Racism are members of the alliance and Sabby Dhalu has said the Together Alliance’s formation was a direct reaction to growing far-right sentiment espoused in last September’s “unite the kingdom” demonstration.
