/// However, despite the traffic jams and large crowds, police said the protest was largely peaceful as a whole. ///
Interesting to see there were no arrests, I wonder if it would have been the same if the demonstration had been an EDL one?

Good point AOG.
Why EDL supporters are so fundamentally incapable of peaceful protest is beyond me.
Perhaps in a former life some EDL members were football hooligans? Perhaps with greater security inside football stadiums, these young men need a different outlet for their aggression?
But it's true what you say - had if been an EDL march, there would have been arrests, but that might be because they bring weapons to their 'peaceful' protests.

No it isn't.
But what we don't know is whether there were police there at that point. If they were told to get off the bus, and refused, then they absolutely should be arrested - possibly under the Public Order Act.
However, bringing offensive weapons to a protest march is way more serious. Something. That simply cannot be tolerated. This is possibly why so many EDL members end up being arrested.
