Meanwhile in Birmingham, a small group of masked counter-protesters spilt off from the larger gathering in Victoria Square to confront the Britain First protesters by the Grosvenor Casino. The mood has ramped up. The police are telling them to move back from police lines.

The meeting outside Epsom station descended into chaos this evening. Protesters drowned out the Chief Inspector from Surrey Police who was escorted back into the station. The group then set out on a march to a local hotel. It's escalated very quickly...

Very ugly scenes in Epping tonight. Essex Police have seemingly called in help from the British Transport Police to try and manage the situation. The counter protesters are effectively penned in, and have been pelted with rocks, eggs and flour. The anger amongst the crowd is palpable. We're at a stand off and traffic through Epping, past the Tower School, is currently going nowhere.

There's another protest outside of Bell Hotel in Epping this evening. There's a crowd of about 200 here and it's gradually getting bigger. There are 3 police carriers here now and lots of chatter about where the planned counter protest is.

Following news that the Britannia Hotel in Canary Wharf is now housing illegal immigrants, a group of protesters has gathered outside. There's a significant police presence here, but that's hardly surprising given what happened in Epping last Thursday night.

The Met Police have arrived in Epping to support Essex Police with the Bell Hotel protesters. They've parked up their carriers across the road between Piya Bar & Kitchen and Tesco. The counter protesters were escorted away down Tower Road, presumably back to the tube station. And police helmets are clipped.

You get a glimpse of the true emotional impact of the #Grenfell Tower disaster during the Silent Walk on the anniversary, 14 June. When they turn left off Lancaster Road, and you see the guard of honour form up from London Fire Brigade, it hits you hard. Today is going to open up a lot of wounds for many people - wounds that have never really healed.

I've just been told that there are reportedly NO RESIDENTS inside the Britannia Hotel in Canary Wharf, only staff - which sums the evening up. The crowd (if you could call it that) has seriously thinned out now, so I'm ducking out as I've still got work to do elsewhere.

A small group of protesters have swung around the back of the police line to try and outflank the Met line, sparking a confrontation with a wheelie bin tipped over in the street and missiles thrown at the carriers. Some Epping locals are trying to encourage passing traffic to turn around and avoid the chaos. I'll be ducking out myself soon...

Many thanks to my cab driver who gave me the tip off about the scale of the #Coronation rehearsal tonight - after I told him I was a video journalist. Now I'm no monarchist by any stretch of the imagination but this was quite a sight.

Police contain a small group of anti-fascist counter-protesters on Southampton Row - just down the road from Russell Square - moments before the 'For the Children' London protest passed by on its way to Trafalgar Square. That could have escalated very quickly.

I was going to say that the pro-#Israel #BanFran protest outside of the London School of Economics had been well mannered, and then *this* happened and tempers boiled over pretty quickly...

The crowd outside the Royal Courts of Justice has been told that Palestine Action's legal challenge has failed, and the proscription will come into effect from Saturday. A hearing is scheduled for 21 July, where Palestine Action will apply for permission to seek a judicial review to quash the order.
