Last year a man was convicted of assaulting two female officers and a male member of the public at Manchester Airport in July 2024. He will be sentenced next month. Two juries have been unable to deliver a verdict relating to alleged assaults on a male officer.

We have deployed extra patrols around the city-region, with a particular focus on providing a high-visibility presence within our Jewish communities in north Manchester, Bury and Salford. If you have any concerns, please report them to us by calling 999 in an emergency or 101.

We are aware of today’s events in Golders Green in north London. Our thoughts are with all those affected by the incident, particularly those in the Jewish community in that area. The safety of everyone remains our highest priority.

The vast majority of protesters & counter-protesters have now left St. Peter’s Square. Officers have worked with city centre partners to minimise the impact on locals, businesses & visitors. We thank the public for their patience & cooperation throughout the day.

The Britain First speeches have ended & the majority of the group has already dispersed. Officers continue to safely facilitate the counter-protest group that remains in St. Peter’s Square. Today’s police operation has resulted in just three arrests so far.

A small breakaway group of protesters had made their way down the side of the Town Hall. Officers were met with resistance as they moved them away from the nearby counter group & some force was required. Officers are working hard to maintain safety & order.

Earlier, counter-protesters had attempted to break police lines and attempted to throw punches. PAVA spray was deployed as a tactic instead of using further additional force. There are no reports of any members of the public being injured.
