'Enough is enough': Tens of thousands rally in London against mass immigration, censorship, and two-tier policing
On July 27, a massive rally organized by Tommy Robinson was held in Trafalgar Square, London. This demonstration followed the June 1 protest where Robinson premiered his documentary, "Lawfare - A Totalitarian State." Tommy Robinson, a well-known English independent journalist and activist, has faced several arrests and censorship for challenging the government narrative.
On Saturday, thousands of supporters expressed their dissatisfaction and concerns about multiple issues. The fear of losing their identity due to mass immigration was the primary concern. Other issues included censorship, two-tier policing, the cost of living, and biased coverage by state and corporate media.

"We have forgotten to have faith in ourselves," mentioned one of the supporters at Trafalgar Square.
"Our forefathers gave their lives to defend this country—democracy, liberty, and freedom. The least we can do is our part to stand up for the future of our children and grandchildren. It's their futures that we are trying to save," exclaimed another attendee.

Recent riots in the town of Leeds have raised significant concerns and highlighted the problems associated with mass immigration and integration. "At the end of the day, it's going to happen. Now, you bring in different people, different cultures. It's going to kick off," said one participant. An emotional woman expressed, "It's very emotional to me, you know, because this is not England. This is not Britain."
The British people have had enough, and they are making their voices heard by gathering and sending a message across the UK and internationally. Patriotism remains strong among the people in England, and we will closely follow their movement.
