Over 100,000 turn out for right-wing rally in London

More than 100,000 people massed today in central London for the march and rally organized by far-right activist Tommy Robinson.

His latest “Unite the Kingdom” event saw attendees march over Westminster Bridge before rallying near Downing Street for speeches by far-right figures from across Europe and North America.

“The silent majority will be silent no longer,” Robinson told the crowd. “Today is the spark of a cultural revolution.”

“Every day in the papers you read things and you’re being left stunned — arresting people because they dared to talk about immigration or gender issues,” Philip Dodge, a retired baker from Sheffield, central England, tells AFP.

He traveled with his wife to the event, which was also being watched by hundreds of thousands of viewers on livestreams.

“I’m very concerned. I never thought I’d see this in this country.”
