🚨🇬🇧 PARENTS, PLEASE TAKE NOTICE.... 20th NOVEMBER 2026! 🇬🇧 Organised student and youth protests are being advertised across several UK cities on Friday 20 November, including London, Manchester, Liverpool, Bristol, Cardiff, Leicester and Cheltenham. Following the disturbing scenes of unrest we've witnessed in parts of Europe, the last thing Britain needs is violence, vandalism and disorder spreading onto our streets. This is not simply a spontaneous gathering of students asking for better resources. The advertised demonstrations form part of a coordinated international anti-war campaign. Everyone has the right to peaceful protest. But that right does not extend to intimidating the public, attacking police officers, damaging businesses or destroying the communities we all share. 👨‍👩‍👧 PARENTS... KNOW WHERE YOUR CHILDREN ARE. Talk to them. Understand what they are being encouraged to attend, particularly through social media. Make sure they understand the consequences if a peaceful demonstration turns violent. Young people have every right to express their opinions, but they also have responsibilities. Being passionate about a cause is no excuse for criminal behaviour. ⚠️ TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC: If you are travelling into any of the advertised locations, stay informed, plan ahead and avoid any developing disorder. And to anyone considering going out to confront protesters or take matters into their own hands, please don't. We cannot condemn street violence while risking further confrontation ourselves. Let the police deal with criminality. We know who will get the blame should troubles escalate. Britain belongs to everyone who calls it home. With that comes a shared responsibility to respect our laws, our communities and one another. Peaceful protest is a democratic right. Rioting is not. Let's make sure 20th November remains peaceful. Please share so parents and communities are aware. #UKNews #ParentsAwareness #PublicSafety #20November #KeepBritainSafe – at Clayhanger, England
