A group of around fifty Neo Nazis were prevented from marching through Liverpool today due to the size of the counter demonstration which greeted them. Mayor Joe Anderson spoke at a rally as another group consisting of Activists confronted the Neo Nazis. The members of the far right group National Action had planned to march through Liverpool today. But due to the hostile nature of the counter protest, consisting of hundreds of people, which was waiting for them near Liverpool's Lime Street station Police held the Neo Nazis inside the station for their own safety.




There were two groups of protestors, one was led by the Mayor of Liverpool Joe Anderson and made up of union members and some members of the public. Another protest consisted mainly of activists, this protest met the far right group head on, it took around fifty Police officers to form a barrier between the Neo Nazis and the activists inside and outside of the Lime Street station.




Once the protestors had realised the far right group was inside the station they stormed inside where the police had formed a cordon. A stand off ensued and bottles of urine, milk, coke and water were thrown at the Neo Nazis, along with bananas and eggs.




Some of the far right group made a run for it out of a side exit from the station and were chased by a small group of the counter protestors, rushing past two Police officers who were caught slightly off-guard. The activists managed to get close enough to one of them and pushed him over, he hit his head on the way down and was stunned, he was eventually taken to hospital by Paramedics.




Six arrests were made during the course of the day.
