Five people have been arrested after a group of masked men tried to storm a hotel housing asylum seekers in west London.
It comes as demonstrations have taken place at hotels across the country today.
The Metropolitan Police said a group of masked protestors attempted to enter the Crowne Hotel in West Drayton via the rear entrance, damaging the security hoarding which surrounds the building.
The force said officers were already at the hotel and called for more support to stop the men breaking in.
A separate group then made their way towards a nearby Novotel on Cherry Lane, while another group moved towards a Holiday Inn. Three people were arrested and cordons were put in place in the surrounding area.
