Migrant protests descend into anarchy as rival groups clash

Migrant protests have descended into anarchy as a wave of demonstrations took place around the UK during a weekend of fury over asylum seeker hotels.

Today more than 30 protests were held in towns including Bristol, Exeter, Tamworth, Cannock, Nuneaton, Liverpool, Wakefield, Newcastle, Horley, Canary Wharf, Aberdeen and Perth in Scotland, and Mold in Wales.

Counter-protests, many set up by anti-fascist group Stand Up To Racism, have also turned out at many of the locations outside hotels housing asylum seekers.
