Black Lives Matter protests: New rules imposed as police try to avoid violence
"If you were planning to come to London, I again would urge you to reconsider, but if you are still intent, please familiarise yourself with what the conditions are," he said.The protests have been inspired by those in the US following the death of George Floyd"Protecting property, protecting people, particularly police officers, is really important and criminality will not be tolerated," Mr Javid said.
"But those who come along with the intention of, or they are able to be drawn into, violence when they come to London, that just won't be accepted and it won't be tolerated."The protests were sparked by the killing of American George Floyd, a black man who died in Minneapolis last month after a white police officer knelt on his neck for almost nine minutes.
