Further scuffles broke out at anti-immigration protests in the UK on Saturday, with police making several arrests.Demonstrators calling for mass "remigration" gathered in central Manchester , northwest England, for a march organised by the far-right " Britain First " group, which was confronted by anti-racism groups.Meanwhile in central London , rival demonstrators converged outside a hotel housing asylum seekers, following similar recent events that have occasionally turned violent.In Manchester, the two groups clashed briefly at the start of the protest before police split them up, according to an AFP journalist at the scene. "Send them back, don't let them in -- just stop them coming in, we've got hotels full of immigrants and we've got our own homeless people in the streets begging for food but nowhere to live," said protestor Brendan O'Reilly, 66.Counter-protestor Judy, a 60-year-old retired nurse, told AFP she was there "because I don't want to see people full of hate on the streets of Manchester. ""Do they want them all to go back or is it just people with brown skin? I suspect it's just people with brown skin that they want to re-migrate," she added.In London, similar clashes erupted outside a hotel in the Barbican neighbourhood before police intervened.Metropolitan Police wrote on X that officers had cleared a junction where counter-protesters had assembled in breach of the conditions in place. "There have been nine arrests so far, with seven for breaching Public Order Act conditions," added the force.There have been several flashpoints around the UK in recent weeks, most notably in the north-east London neighbourhood of Epping.

This means that 60 years old cannot be fully biologically 50 years old, but 56 years old, The Times said. Rather, the health of younger generations than baby boomers may deteriorate, The Times analyzed.

At the time of his death, he was a serving prisoner at HMP Garth, a Category B prison located at Ulnes Walton, Lancashire.

Busey entered a guilty plea to a single count of criminal sexual contact during a virtual hearing in state court in Camden on Thursday. He was initially charged with two counts of fourth-degree criminal sexual contact, one count of attempted criminal sexual contact and one count of harassment. Busey’s lawyer Blair Zwillman confirmed on Friday that the other charges were dropped as part of a plea deal reached with prosecutors. The actor faces up to five years’ probation and fines when he is sentenced September 18. “In my view Mr Busey was ‘overcharged’ probably based on his star status,” Mr Zwillman said in an email.
