# Unite the Kingdom Rally The **Unite the Kingdom** marches are [[Tommy Robinson]]'s London street rallies, billed as "free speech" demonstrations. They are where the [[Musk UK Campaign]] went from online to in person. ## 13 September 2025 The Metropolitan Police estimated **110,000–150,000** people in central London. Robinson claimed police had estimated 3 million, which Full Fact found false. **26 officers were injured, 4 seriously, and 25 people were arrested.** The march was sponsored by Advance UK, whose leader Ben Habib spoke. [[Éric Zemmour]] was among the foreign speakers. [[Elon Musk]] appeared by video link: **"Whether you choose violence or not, violence is coming to you. You either fight back or you die."** [[Keir Starmer]] responded that Britain would not stand for "people feeling intimidated on our streets because of their background or the color of their skin." ## 16 May 2026 The second march drew **about 60,000** by the Met's estimate, well down on September. 31 people were arrested across this march and a Nakba Day march held in London the same day. The Home Secretary barred eleven of Robinson's planned foreign speakers. Robinson framed the day as a call to electoral organizing ("Are you ready for the Battle of Britain…"), and Restore Britain got the loudest crowd response of the parties he named. He credited Musk from the stage: "None of this would have happened if it wasn't for one man. Thank you Elon, on behalf of Great Britain." ## See Also - [[Tommy Robinson]] · [[Musk UK Campaign]] · [[Elon Musk]] · [[English Defence League]]
