Sky News reports:
Why Tommy Robinson rally was different to any other
Police said up to 150,000 people were in London on Saturday for the "Unite the Kingdom" rally led by far-right activist Tommy Robinson.
It's really disingenuous to call this a 'Tommy Robinson' rally, yes he was there and no doubt many of his supporters, but as Sky admits in the same news story:
And it's clear that simply writing off protesters as far right doesn't really capture what's going on either. The audience is too broad to fit just that label.
The MSM, the government and many others continue to pretend that all this is a 'far-right' issue, which it clearly is not.
It's not about right or left anymore but about where you stand on the big issues of the day.
The UK is in the throes of a new kind of appeasement: cultural appeasement in the face of relentless immigration.
Unfortunately, the UK government is clueless about immigration and mostly everything else..
As further emphasised by the government minister Peter Kyle, who went on a popular political TV talk show and seemed to back the appointment of Mandelson - the 'best pal' (in Mandelson's words) of a paedophile - for US ambassador as a risk worth taking.
That says it all.
Another failed risk assessment. Why bother to do them in the first place?
If we swap the US-Epstein, for a home-grown paedophile like Jimmy Savile, presumably vetting and the government would have let that go too?
