Tens of thousands of people are expected to gather today in responding to the call of far -right activist Tommy Robinson for mobilizing “in favor of freedom of expression”.
“Go on your country, a course for freedom, a course for your children, a path to him,” Robinson wrote in a post on the X platform, referring to the murder of the conservative activist and a staunch supporter of the US President.

The 42-year-old Tommy Robinson, whose real name is Steven Yaxley-Lenon, is known for his anti-immigration and anti-Islamic positions and has been convicted several times, among other things, for public public. He was imprisoned in 2018 for contempt for court and in 2024 for false allegations against Syria.
At the same time gathering and contradiction
The rally is scheduled for 10am (local time, 13:00 in Greece) and will follow a march to Whittle. The organizers have announced the presence of several celebrities from the right and far right, including Steve Banon, former adviser to US President Donald Trump. The leader of the French far -right party “Reconstruction”, Eric Zemur, confirmed that he would be there.
The anti -racist organization Stand Up to Racism UK in the center of the British capital has been planned at the same time. Crowds are expected to participate in this “course against fascism”, as its organizers have called it.
