In a Facebook post, the group said: "Pegida UK is holding its first rally in Newcastle. All are welcome to attend. lets show the Islamists we show no fear."

Pegida’s UK has not responded to a request for comment from The Independent, but a spokesman told the Mirror it did not want to attract extremists, or "do anything illegal". He added the group expects between 500 to 3,000 protesters to attend the march.

“We are against radical Islam, hate preachers and believe Muslims need to adapt to our way of life in the West instead of us adapting to them."

Anti-fascists have announced plans to counter the demonstrations, claiming the group is supported by members of the far right.

Weyman Bennett, secretary of Unite Against Facsism, said: "They have tried to do this all over Europe. I think we should oppose it."

Northumbria Police said it had not been contacted by the organisers.Should be interesting but do you think there is any point to such a demonstration?
