To mark UN Anti-Racism Day, thousands of anti-racism demonstrators marched through London.
'All Refugees Welcome - March Against Racism' protest march was carried out from BBC Broadcasting House down through Whitehall to Parliament Square.
Stand Up to Racism said in a tweet, that around 10,000 turned out to protest in the capital, and some 2,000 marched in Glasgow.
'Massive thanks & #solidarity to all unions, campaigns, organisations & anti racists who made today's #MarchAgainstRacism such a success,' the post added.
A similar protest was carried out in Glasgow’s Kelvingrove Park where crowds were chanting 'no borders, no nations, no deportations' and 'say it loud, say it clear - refugees are welcome here'. Another march is scheduled at City Hall in Cardiff.
At Parliament Square, speakers including Labour MP Diane Abbott, author Michael Rosen and Refugee Council Chief Executive Enver Soloman were also addressing the crowd.
Using the hashtag #MarchAgainstRacism, former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, who also spoke at today's rally in London, tweeted: 'Today we came together to demand the government scraps its Nationality and Borders Bill that would criminalise refugees and those who show the humanity to help them, and instead build a safe passage and security for those fleeing conflict around the world.'
It is believed that the Nationality and Borders Bill may face a rebellion amid growing concerns how policies regarding asylum seekers would affect Ukrainian refugees.
