A spokesman said: “One police officer suffered bruising to his shoulder and some parked cars were damaged in Russell Street after various items were thrown but the protest passed without major incident. There were no arrests.”

Extra police officers were on duty in the town to keep opposing groups separated and allow the planned march to run peacefully to Dover Eastern Docks.

Traffic on Townwall Street was delayed for 45 minutes.

A spokesman added: “Kent Police would like to thank the community for its co-operation.”
