On Saturday, tens of thousands converged on the streets of London for the “Unite the Kingdom” rally, to speak out against political censorship and mass migration. The rally was organised and led by Tommy Robinson.

Robinson, who previously drew large crowds for a patriotic demonstration in Parliament Square, once again attracted significant numbers. Aerial photos of Trafalgar Square captured a sea of supporters waving British, English, Israeli, and even Donald Trump flags. Addressing the crowd, Robinson declared: “To fight is in our DNA. It’s in every single one of you, it’s in your children. The British are known throughout history as fighters. The sooner we remember it, the sooner we realise every one of us has it. More and more of us need to stand up to them.”


He continued, “Freedom of speech has never been free. Our forefathers died and bled for it. Every imaginable suffering has been endured for freedom of speech – solitary confinement, torture, and death. Freedom of speech is worth fighting for; it’s worth dying for. Death, prison… we will never submit to your lies.”

Robinson is scheduled to appear in court next week on contempt of court charges related to his 2021 libel case involving the Almondbury Community School incident. During the rally, Robinson screened his documentary, "Silenced," which he claims undermines the charges against him.


A small counter-demonstration was organised by the so-called "Stand Up To Racism" group in partnership with the Stop the War Coalition, the Peace & Justice Project, and Unite Against Fascism. This counter-protest was also supported by the Trade Union Congress (TUC) and other trade unions.
