Far right hate group Patriotic Alternative clash with campaigners in protest outside Scots 'asylum seeker hotel'

A man has been reported for an alleged hate crime offence as an extreme far-right group clashed with dozens of campaigners after hijacking a community protest over asylum seekers being housed at a Scots hotel.

Another man was also arrested for breaching bail conditions as members of racist Patriotic Alternative staged a demonstration outside the Muthu Glasgow River Hotel in Erskine, on Sunday afternoon, where 170 men aged between 18 and 40 - are being given a temporary home.

The rally had originally been organised by locals from the Erskine Against Asylum Hotel group before members decided to boycott it.
