UK Police Prepare for Far-Right Rally and Counter-Demonstrations in London

Date:

London police have launched a large-scale security operation as thousands of demonstrators gather for opposing rallies in the city center. A far-right march led by Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, known as Tommy Robinson, is being met by a significant counter-protest organized by Stand Up to Racism. More than 1,000 officers are deployed to keep the groups separate and maintain public order.

  1. It's interesting this gets called far-right in the media. I see crowds with women, children, Asian-Brits, Black-Brits, as well as everyone else. It seems more like the far-left is reporting on everyone else.

  2. This is the problem here. Everybody sees anything left of centre as left this which is correct but anything that disagrees with the left is far right which is not true. It is just ordinary people trying to get their country back and you need to understand that rather than making out that everything is far right if they don’t believe in the left philosophy

  3. Question: what was the biggest empire and colonisers?
    Answer: Great Britain.
    So this the price to pay for years and years of looting from these colonised countries including slave trade and initiating the Balfour Declaration. Now these people have every right to live and claim their shares. Live with it.!

  4. 1:00 As you know, I'm definitely a good person. But good people don't gain anything from politicians and the media compared to bad people. He may be a bad person, but this is just legitimate violence against violence.
