On Saturday, London witnessed one of the largest far-right rallies in decades, organized by activist Tommy Robinson. The event drew more than 110,000 protesters who marched from Big Ben to Waterloo. The rally quickly turned chaotic as clashes broke out between rally participants, counter-protesters, and the police. Authorities reported that officers were attacked with projectiles and physically assaulted during the unrest.
Elon Musk, the billionaire tech entrepreneur, addressed the crowd virtually, delivering a provocative speech. He called for a “revolutionary change” in the UK government and warned with urgency, “You either fight back or you die.” Musk condemned left-wing activists, claiming they “celebrate murder,” adding fuel to the already tense atmosphere.
The rally’s scale and intensity highlight deep divisions within the UK, as concerns rise over far-right movements gaining momentum. Police deployed nearly 1,000 officers to manage the event but struggled to control the situation as violence erupted.
Beyond the immediate disturbances, the rally has sparked widespread debate about:
- Free speech
- Immigration policy
- Political leadership in the UK
While some government officials have condemned the violence, others acknowledge the underlying grievances the movement taps into.
