Anti-racism campaigners have staged a counter-demonstration outside a hotel used to house asylum seekers in Falkirk.
Stand Up To Racism activists were among those taking part in the Aye Welcome Refugees counter protest outside the Cladhan Hotel in Falkirk.
It comes after the group Save Our Future & Our Kids Futures announced plans to hold a protest outside the building on Sunday.
In a post on social media the group said âour concerns are about the immigration issues facing our communitiesâ and said that it âdoes not and will not stand for racismâ.
The group said it will continue to demand answers about the hotel and added: âWe will keep standing for our community, our children, and our future.â
It is the latest in a series of protests outside the hotel in recent weeks.
On Sunday demonstrators from each group stood on opposite sides of the road with police keeping them apart.
Outside the hotel anti-racism protesters held signs with messages such as âstop the far rightâ, âI was a stranger and ye took me inâ and âthese poor people are not your enemyâ.
Across the road some demonstrators waved Saltires and Union flags, one emblazoned with Unite The Kingdom and held messages such as âFalkirk says noâ and âveterans before migrantsâ.
