Thousands marched through central Manchester today calling for mass “remigration.”

The march was organized by the far‑right group Britain First. Anti‑racism groups confronted them near the start of the protest.

What’s not often covered is how the campaign for returned mass deportations taps into economic anger over housing and asylum backlog in working‑class areas.

Demonstrators and counter‑protesters clashed quickly before police separated them.

  • The remigration demand shows far‑right groups targeting local resentment over hotels housing asylum seekers.

  • Authorities made several arrests amid tense stand‑offs in Manchester and London.

  • The protests happened just as the UK government announced plans to speed up asylum decisions, aiming to cut hotel use and calm unrest.
