London on Saturday- should I be concerned about the marches?

[Sausagenbacon]

I'm travelling to Bristol from London on Saturday. There's going to be a March by Tommy robinson and his followers, and also by the anti- tr group.
I'm wondering if I should be concerned about my journey home. I haven't decided whether to coach or rail.
Any advice appreciated

@Sausagenbacon

I don't think that you should have any cause for concern.

The marches are going to be in the Downing Street area, if I remember correctly.

If you are spending the day in Bristol, you will have left London before the marches start. If there is any residual trouble still going on in the evening, it's going to be in the Whitehall area, not near Paddington, where your train will arrive.

I don't think that there is anything to worry about.

I would get the train for your trip, by the way.

London is huge. You will be fine.

I was there during the last lot, and quite close but we stayed away from the exact area. We didn't see anything, except a lot of police cars. And if you are no where near you would see nothing. And the train terminals are well away on the whole.

What is the anti- tr group?

A march takes place every week in London, you won't notice it.

The counter-demonstration is being organised by Stand Up To Racism:

There are multiple demos every weekend in London, and sometimes during the week.
We all seem to manage.

Right, two cheeks of the same arse.

The Unite the Kingdom march is starting at London Bridge and ending at Whitehall so you will not be affected.

Hmm. Two of my great uncles counter marched in Cable Street. Not Jews. Not even Londoners. Two young socialist farm workers from Essex . I couldn’t be prouder of what they did.
