UK: Starmer slow to condemn violence after largest far-right rally in decades

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is facing criticism for a slow response to what is considered the largest far-right rally in decades, held in London. Led by activist Tommy Robinson, the event featured speakers like Elon Musk and French politician Eric Zemmour, who promoted anti-migrant, anti-Muslim, and racist conspiracy theories. The rally was characterized by Christian nationalism, with speakers calling to ban other religions and a Palestinian flag being torn on stage. Violent clashes erupted between protesters and police, resulting in 26 officers being wounded. Campaigners argue that the Labour leadership's own anti-migrant rhetoric is fueling the growth of this far-right movement.
