A number of anti-immigration protesters have arrived at the Clayton Hotel in Belfast city centre.

The protest was set to begin at 5pm this evening with protesters arriving shortly after 6pm.

Several counter groups have also turned up and are watching from a distance.

Both sides have begun chanting, however there have been no reports of violence between them.

A sizable police presence gathered in the city centre ahead of the protest.

Police have been moving the anti-immigration protestors away from counter protesters.

The nearby BBC offices went into lockdown ahead of a protest.

The BBC have declined to comment.

Earlier on Monday, four men were remanded into custody accused of taking part in riots and an illegal parade during anti-immigration protests over the weekend.

Several businesses were attacked and some were set on fire during the protests after an anti-immigrant demonstration moved from Belfast City Hall to surrounding streets.

Three police officers were injured and four members of the public reported that they had been assaulted.
