'Day of Rage' protesters clash with police during anti-government demonstrations in Westminster




Anti-government protesters hoping to 'bring down the government' and 'shut down London' clashed with police outside Downing Street today. They ignored pleas from Grenfell Tower residents who urged them not to 'hijack' the disaster in which at least 79 were killed. A group called the Movement for Justice By Any Means Necessary (bottom right), who marched from Shepherd's Bush to Downing Street today, is said to include survivors of the fire. Zeyad Cred, who lives in the shadow of Grenfell Tower, 'begged' activists to 'keep this peaceful'. But when the group arrived outside Downing Street Street today, activists confronted and screamed at police officers (top and bottom left), resulting in a number of arrests (centre and top right).
