He said: "An initially peaceful protest appears to have been hijacked by a minority of people who are intent on causing disorder. Their aggression has been directed not only at police officers on the frontline but also at other members of the community.

@obbsie Pastor Lorraine is amazing. She quite rightly holds the police to account, but she also gets involved, offers support, works in partnership and gives so much praise where it’s due.

We wear our poppies with pride as we remember those who lost their lives defending the freedoms we take for granted. We honour the sacrifices of those who have served in more recent conflicts and pause to think of those who returned with physical and mental scars. #ArmisticeDay
