Tommy Robinson and his supporters have made their way to the heart of London in preparation for a demonstration at Parliament Square. During the protest, the polarizing far-right figure will showcase his most recent film on a sizable display for all to view.

The Metropolitan Police has announced that an event organised by Mr Robinson (real name Stephen Yaxley Lennon) is likely to be attended by groups related to football hooliganism from various parts of the United Kingdom.

On Saturday night, fans who support Tommy Robinson were waving their Union Jack and St George's Cross flags, while the fans of Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid were arriving in London for the UEFA Champions League Final. They were a bit confused by the Tommy Robinson supporters.

At approximately 1pm, the demonstration started from the vicinity of Victoria station and made its way to Parliament Square. At the Square, addresses will be given and a movie will be exhibited.

Laurence Fox and Tommy Robinson were seen leading the protest, while the crowd behind them shouted "we want our country back." The banner they carried stated 'This is London, not Londonistan.'

Control orders were put in place on the Youth Demand organization, who were supporting Palestine, for their static counter protest.

Someone from Scotland Yard wrote on X website: "Rules have been set for this pack of Youth Demand protesters."

Prohibitions have been put in place to stop them from entering Westminster and crossing any bridges over the Thames. Additionally, they are not allowed to step off the pavement. The objective of these measures is to prevent the significant disruption that they have declared their intention to carry out.

The group of people who support their own country's interests came together at Parliament Square to watch a film called 'Lawfare' made by a man named Tommy Robinson. The movie talks about how the policing system is divided into two parts and is not fair. Almost 400,000 people were watching a live broadcast of the event and speeches on X.

The audience was entertained with hard rock music that had lyrics such as "We will protect our kids until the very end."

During a public address in front of a large group of people holding the British flag, a YouTube personality known for his far-right views named Carl Benjamin addressed the recent controversy surrounding his interview with Liz Truss.

He stated: "We are at fault for conducting an interview with the ex-Prime Minister, which was my wrongdoing."

This is the reason I'm facing difficulties. However, I currently identify as a spouse, a parent, and a citizen of England. I acknowledge that we are still living, although if we solely relied on what we see in the media, we wouldn't be aware of it. This brings me to my question, where is our portrayal in the media?

He concluded by stating: "There are significant issues that the mainstream political parties are not equipped to address. As a result, we must take matters into our own hands and proactively work towards finding solutions."

It is important to bear in mind that our reputation as English individuals is at stake. Let us be deserving of the admiration of our magnificent and triumphant forefathers, who are observing us and wishing for our victory. We must emerge victorious for the sake of our offspring, and there can be no turning back or expressing remorse.

The Metropolitan Police declared about the inspection: "Enforcers have recognized persons in the cluster who have a past of participating in violent turmoil."

Many individuals who have been issued football banning orders are part of hooligan organizations in both London and other locations in the UK. Moreover, the crowd segment that is notorious for participating in anti-lockdown demonstrations amid the pandemic and causing unrest is also present.

Though there haven't been any misconducts yet, many individuals in the gathering seem to have consumed excessive amounts of alcohol. The function is still ongoing and has many hours left.

The CEO of HOPE not hate, Nick Lowles, has stated that there is going to be a large gathering of far-right supporters, football hooligans, and those who support Tommy Robinson today. This is likely to be the largest gathering of this kind in years.

It's probable that violence could happen soon. We discovered some very concerning messages from groups of troublemakers in which they've expressed their intentions to harm those who are of different races, individuals who support Palestine, and even the authorities.

The police force mentioned that over 2,000 officers are responsible for monitoring the protests and the Champions League Final at Wembley.

Commander Louise Puddefoot stated that the police officers have recently conversed with the coordinators of both demonstrations. Their main concern is to guarantee that individuals who choose to partake in legal protests, whether it is the main march or counter protest, can do so without putting their safety at risk.

Police officers will be present at these protests, just as they usually are. They will not show any partiality and will ensure the safety of both protesters and bystanders. If any criminal acts occur or anyone tries to disrupt the peace, the police will respond swiftly and decisively.

Despite expressing gratitude to the individual who is leading the protest and publicly advising against any violent acts occurring during Saturday's event, we have reservations regarding the quantity of attendees who are believed to have connections to football hooliganism.

We comprehend that the worry extends beyond the possibility of officers becoming targets. Certain individuals in London, especially our Muslim communities, may experience apprehension and doubt due to statements made by those connected to this incident.

Every citizen of London is entitled to feel secure and protected within the city. We will adopt a strict and unwavering stance against any form of hate crime that is driven by racial or religious prejudices that come to our attention.
