why is london protesting

London is protesting due to a massive anti-immigration rally called "Unite the Kingdom," led by far-right activist Tommy Robinson. The protest attracted over 110,000 participants who marched against immigration policies, voicing concerns about illegal migration and national identity. The event became one of the UK's largest right-wing demonstrations and was accompanied by a smaller counter-protest opposing racism and fascism. Clashes broke out during the protests, leading to injuries of 26 police officers, some seriously, and at least 25 arrests. The tensions stem from political debates over immigration, with speeches at the rally spreading anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim rhetoric. Police deployed large numbers of officers to manage the situation and keep opposing groups separated, while the Mayor of London condemned the violence against officers as intolerable.
