Ultra-right march in central London
Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, said on Twitter that he had called a protest"for freedom of speech" and that it was the largest in British history. According to the latest police estimates cited by British media and AFP, the march was attended by around 110,000 people. The Guardian had previously reported that the attendance was expected to be in the low tens of thousands, and warned that it was difficult to determine the exact number of participants.

The BBC server said that the protesters want to march through central London to Whitehall Square. There, in addition to Robinson, former adviser to US President Donald Trump Steve Bannon and controversial presenter Kate Hopkins will also speak to them on stage. The participants also want to honor the memory of American activist Charlie Kirk, who died after the attack at the University of Utah on Wednesday.
Protesters carry British and English flags and banners with slogans such as"stop the boats" and "send them home," referring to the growing number of migrants crossing the English Channel.
According to the Sky News television server, representatives of anti-racism organizations are protesting Robinson's rally with the March against Fascism action. With slogans such as"diverse Britain" and "stop the far right," about 5,000 of them, including several British MPs, set out for the protest march.
London police said they would deploy more than 1,600 officers to the streets in response to the protests."We will treat these as we would any other protest. We will ensure that people can exercise their legal rights, but we will take strong action where there are incidents or offences," Clair Haynes, the police chief, told Reuters.
