London chaos looms as hundreds of thousands plan to join pro-Palestine march on ... trends now

Pro-Palestine activists are set to march through the streets of London at the same time the Festival of Remembrance is being held at the Royal Albert Hall next week.

Protesters have descended on the capital in support of Palestine over the past three Saturdays - and this is set to continue on November 11 which is Remembrance Day. 

The main Remembrance Day events are taking place on the Sunday, including a parade at the Cenotaph and a service at Westminster Abbey, but the Festival of Remembrance will see two performances at the Royal Albert Hall at 2pm and 7pm on Saturday.

The festival is described as a 'commemorative event dedicated to all those that have served and sacrificed from Britain and the Commonwealth.'

The Friends of Al-Aqsa have planned a pro-Palestine march through the capital on November 11 - and have hired coaches to take activists from Leicester to London.

Organisers said: 'At the last march in London on 28th October we made history as half a million people marched in the capital, making it the biggest Palestine demonstration in British history. 

'Let's see if we can make the 11th November National March even bigger.'

The group plans to leave Leicester at 8.30am but they have not yet confirmed the route that they will take.

The Met Police have said it is aware that this weekend is one of 'huge national significance' and they have warned they will use 'all powers available' to prevent disruption.

It's understood that there were actually around 100,000 demonstrators last Saturday, where pro-Palestinian protesters called for an immediate ceasefire in hostilities between Israel and Hamas.

More than 1,000 Metropolitan Police officers were on duty for the march from Victoria
