Tommy Robinson march in London

Tens of thousands gathered in London for Tommy Robinson's 'Uniting the Kingdom' rally, which aimed to protest against political censorship and mass migration. Robinson, a controversial far-right activist, declared the event as the 'biggest patriotic rally the UK has ever seen', encouraging attendees to reclaim their country and fight for free speech. Counter-demonstrators from Stand Up To Racism, supported by former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn and trade unions, marched nearby, advocating against racism and division. The Metropolitan Police deployed around 1,000 officers to maintain peace between the two opposing groups, warning that any troublemakers would be arrested. Robinson's event featured British and nationalist symbols, while counter-protesters emphasized messages of unity and anti-hate. The stark contrast between the rallies underscored the ongoing tensions surrounding issues of nationalism and immigration in the UK.
