Britain First Rally - Bromley - Saturday 4 November 2017

Britain First Rally - Bromley - Saturday 4 November

This message was sent via the Bromley Neighbourhood Watch Association 

Message from the Borough Commander:

I am sure you will have seen or heard that there is going to be a rally by Britain First on Saturday and this has raised the possibility of a counter-rally by other groups. They plan to meet in Bromley North and walk to Bromley Police Station, taking a route that includes the High Street. It is not clear how many people are expected to attend.

This situation has been monitored by us in the last week and we planned to bring local resources on duty earlier than planned to police it. However, we have now secured central resources to cover the event and these will be supported by a team of local officers. There is a command structure in place and an operational plan to police the event. From a local perspective, Insp Gary Byfield will be the lead for community engagement in the lead up to the event and also on the day. We are in contact with local businesses that may be concerned by the prospect of the rally and its impact on a busy Saturday afternoon. We will circulate more information in due course.
Regards
