There were approximately 450 English Defence League supporters in Calderdale and 70 counter demonstrators.
There was also a heavy police presence in Brighouse to ensure public order.
Among those arrested was a 21-year-old Bradford man, who was charged with possession of an offensive weapon in Halifax town centre.

A 29-year-old man from Stafford, was given a penalty notice for disorder and a 25-year-old Pontefract man, detained for breaching bail conditions.
