The guardian live updates mentioned a breakaway group of 2000 (!). I think that was the group that made up the ~80 group-arrest. By the sounds of it this lot would fight their own shadow.
The breakaway group who tried to head for Vauxhall Bridge were only about 200 so they did reach the march. Yaxley-Lennon led his knuckle-draggers up to Chinatown where they promptly started fighting the police, then he made a hasty exit in a taxi leaving his followers to themselves.

Thank fuck they didn’t get to the march.
The Met tactic of kettling them before they even leave the pub is amazing (but does rely on a spooky amount of surveillance).
