Far-right nationalist group 'linked to banner' flown over Man City vs Liverpool clash

A disturbing banner flown over the Etihad on Sunday afternoon has been linked to a far-right nationalist group.

During the enthralling Premier League game between Manchester City and Liverpool - which finished 2-2 - a banner with the words "British to be minority by 2066" was spotted flying over the ground. The purpose of the stunt was not clear at the time.

But a nationalist group named Patriotic Alternative is believed to be behind the incident. The far-right organisation - which is led by Mark Collett, a former member of the British National Party - has claimed responsibility for posting leaflets with a similar message through the letterboxes of residents in Greater Manchester.
