Extra police from around northern England were drafted into Newcastle upon Tyne yesterday to manage a march by the English Defence League, a political organisation formed in 2009 whose stated aim is to oppose what it sees as the spread of Islamism , Sharia law and Islamic extremism in England. Some people however consider the EDL to be a racist and fascist organisation.

Beadnell Bay
.
.
Beadnell Bay on the Northumberland coast is a 3km long dune backed sandy beach. From late spring through summer it plays host to the largest mainland colony of Arctic Tern in the UK. Over the weekend the area had blazing sunshine and was also breeze free, rare for the North-East coast, as can be seen from the calm waters in this photo.

The wild cattle of Chillingham
.
.
The unique white Chillingham cattle are believed to be the only survivors of the herds which once roamed wild through Great Britain. Today they are kept enclosed , but wild, on a 365 acre estate at Chillingham in Northumberland which has been their home since the 13th century. There are around 80 in the herd and they receive no intervention from their keepers apart from the provision of hay during particularly severe winters.
