EDL supporters injured as crowds and police clash in Birmingham Angry scenes as English Defence League and Unite Against Fascism hold demos in city centre
An English Defence League protester lay on the ground with blood pouring from his face on to his t-shirt as trouble flared at a demonstration in Birmingham city centre on Saturday afternoon.
Minutes after EDL leader Tommy Robinson began his speech in Centenary Square some of the crowd began clashing with police – pulling down fences around the new Library of Birmingham construction site.
Others pushed a portable toilet around the crowded streets.
