Anti-racism rallies go happily on Wednesday, but pressure persists in many towns

Thai nationals who travel to the United Kingdom and those who live there are urged to stay away from anti-racism demonstrations in England and Northern Ireland by the Royal Thai Embassy in London.
The notice was a reply to a month of near-nightly protests, during which mosque and migrant-related services were attacked by anti-immigrant mobs.
It was precisely made available in relation to the anti-racism counterdemonstrations scheduled for Wednesday that American authorities worried might elicit a violent response from far-right organizations.
After authorities flooded the streets of many English towns and cities and reiterated that far-right agitators suspected of using force would not tolerate violence, the rallies ended almost completely peacefully.
Misinformation about the presumed suspect in a knife attack that left three children dead in Southport on July 29 contributed to the earlier crime.
The Thai consulate advised against travelling to some places, including England, Bristol, Manchester, Stoke-on-Trent, Blackpool, Belfast and Hull. Thai nationals can contact the embassy at 44 ( 0 ) 791 8651720 or , via email for information or in case of an emergency.
