Tens of thousands in London to protest for Palestine

Tens of thousands have descended on the streets of Central London to protest for Palestine and demand a ceasefire. 

London's protest comes after British government officials tried to ban the pro-Palestine demonstration as it coincided with Remembrance Day commemorations. 

Earlier, local news reports said far-right activists had clashed with police in Central London. 

MEE's Aina Khan is on the ground in London and said protestors are streaming through the streets of London despite official calls to ban the protest.

Here is her report: 

Protestors are slowly making their way past Marble Arch near the end of Edgeware Road. 

Chants of "Israel is a terrorist state, free, free Palestine" reverberate across the roads of Central London. 

Zoe Whittington, travelled from South London with her partner and 17-month-old son. 

"I can't stand by and be complicit in what is going on. I believe in peace and I believe in humanity," said Whittington. 

"I can't stop by watching children and civilians being persecuted and killed in the way that they are.

"I want my son to live in a world that is free of this kind of thing and I think it's really important he is here with me today."
