Brighton business leaders claim March for England cost city more than £1 million

Brighton is still counting the cost of the March for England, three months after the nationalist protest came to town.

A recent survey of more than 100 businesses showed that they lost a combined £150,000 thanks to the city centre being closed.

Widening this figure out to all the city’s firms, it is claimed the total loss of revenue reached seven figures.

With the policing operation also exceeding £500,000, some are asking for the march to be relocated or even banned.
