what are london protests about

The London protests on September 13, 2025, were primarily about anti- immigration sentiments. Over 110,000 people participated in a large right-wing rally called "Unite the Kingdom," organized by far-right activist Tommy Robinson. The demonstration was framed as a fight for free speech but focused heavily on opposition to immigration, with nationalist and anti-immigration rhetoric. The protest saw clashes between some demonstrators and police, resulting in injuries to 26 officers and multiple arrests. There were also around 5,000 counter-protesters opposing the far-right march. The event highlighted tensions around immigration issues in the UK, with far-right political figures from Europe also speaking at the rally and controversial statements being made about immigration and Islam.
