England Police came under attack from demonstrators as a rally against plans to increase powers for dealing with peaceful protests spilled over into violence.

The 'Kill the Bill' event in Bristol saw a police station attacked, officers suffer broken bones and a number of police vehicles set alight. What started as a non-violent demonstration in the city centre against the government's Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill turned ugly after hundreds of protesters marched from College Green to the New Bridewell police station. Its windows were smashed using a skateboard while a nearby police van was graffitied and set on fire.
Uniformed officers, carrying riot shields, tackled the blaze
Police said missiles had been thrown at them, including a firework, and that they had been verbally abused.
