Thousands of supporters of Tommy Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, gathered in central London for the 'Unite the Kingdom' rally, despite his absence due to being remanded into custody. The protest was marked by chants demanding Robinson's release and criticism of political figures like Keir Starmer. The rally faced a counter-protest from Stand Up to Racism, prompting a significant police presence to maintain order and prevent clashes. Police reported several arrests, including individuals from both the far-right rally and the counter-protest, for offences such as public order violations and common assault. Robinson faces legal issues related to contempt of court over allegations of breaching a high court order and failing to provide his phone access code to police. Despite tensions, the day ended with a heavy police presence ensuring both groups exercised their right to protest safely.
