London, UK. 7th October 2017. Police move in in large numbers to get marchers to move past Stand Up To Racism supporters handing out the flier 'Some questions for the leaders of the FLA' and continue their march . Although the FLA strongly denies accusations that they are racist and against Muslims in general, there were many former supporters of far-right groups such as the EDL among those marching. As the FLA marched past, a number of individuals came to shout abuse at those handing out the fliers, threatening them and photographers. One man pulled all of the fliers one person was holding and threw them onto the pavement while others took them and tore them up, though a few took them and started to read them. Some of the FLA attempted to stop the abuse and threats, and police pushed a number of marchers back into the crowd attempting to keep order. There were a few minor scuffles and at least one photographer was assaulted before police persuaded the last FLA marchers to move on towards Westminster Bridge.
