PHOTOS: Mansfield photographer captures Nottingham protests

A Mansfield photographer has shared images from Nottingham city centre demonstrations over the weekend, where far-right supporters and counter-protesters clashed and were separated by police.

Over the weekend, there were several demonstrations in towns and cities across the UK.

Simultaneous demonstrations took place in Nottingham city centre.

The demonstrations brought far-right and anti-fascist groups face-to-face in Nottingham on Saturday, August 3.

These protests arose following heightened tensions in the country following the killing of three young girls in Southport, Merseyside, last Monday.

Richard Tatham, a photographer from Mansfield, was at the demonstration and captured the following images.

He said: “The world’s gone mad.”
