A massive London march organised by far-right activist Tommy Robinson, which drew up to 150,000 participants, descended into violence on Saturday after a small group of his supporters clashed with police who were separating them from a counter-protest. At least 25 people were arrested during a march organised by far-right activist Tommy Robinson in London, named ‘Unite the Kingdom’, which drew up to 150,000 people.
The demonstration, which took place on Saturday, quickly turned violent as protesters clashed with police forces as they attempted to separate them from counter-protesters.
London says at least 26 police officers were injured in the scuffles, four of them critically. Police Assistant Commissioner Matt Twist said that officers had policed without “fear or favour”, adding that one officer suffered a concussion, while another suffered broken teeth.
“The arrests are just the start,” said Twist as the London Metropolitan Police vowed to find all those responsible and hold them to account.

I wonder if they were really arrested because they looked like they were having negative thoughts about Muslim grooming gangs.
These sorts of idiots usually show up. There’s no way to keep them out. .0025%
Who knows if they actually assaulted police - more likely they are the equivalent of our J6 “insurrectionists”.
LIARS! How stupid do they think we are? I hope people in the UK have access to the aerial views. There were easily over 1 million people there. I’ve seen estimates of 3 million!
The crowd size was estimated to be closer to a million
The “ counter protesters” were there to cause trouble
Wonder how many were actually govt agent-provocateurs
Yes “ descended into violence” with 25 arrests incited by a group there to discredit the rally…in a crowd of a million….is a bit “ hyperbolic”
The demonstrators were herded toward counter demonstrators by the police. Yes it was a setup.
I was on X last Saturday as people were complaining about this.
I wouldn’t believe a word British police say.
ABC reported a “swarm of people” and said 100s arrested.
Mostly peaceful, then.
Is this just poor journalism, or were the cops really only focused on the right-wing protestors and allowing the counter protestors to have their way?
Or were the police trying to separate BOTH parties from each other?
The far-left euro news lies.
Think the far-left euro news can give an accurate crowd count? Think again.
Two can play this game, far-left euronews.
See #12.
It seems anyone who can think an independent thought is called far-right.
Why do these News sources have to prefix their headline with the term FAR RIGHT?
Do they ever use the term FAR LEFT for those who support Hamas for instance?
“Malek Fouda”......I think I found the problem
It’s refreshing to be among such clear-headed people as the FR members! And God bless Tommy Robinson.
It was 1m+.
There was certainly more than 150,000 people there.
