UK: Labour Party activists to protest outside party headquarters, July 20

Event

Activists from the opposition Labour Party are planning to demonstrate outside the party’s offices in London July 20 to denounce the leadership’s alleged attempts to distance itself from left-wing policies. Participants will gather outside the premises on Victoria Street, Westminster, at 12:00.

While the event is likely to pass off without incident, heightened security measures could prompt localized traffic disruptions. Isolated scuffles are possible if protesters attempt to breach security cordons.

Advice

Avoid the protest as a routine security precaution and to mitigate possible disruptions. Allow additional time for travel in the immediate vicinity on the afternoon of July 20.
