🚨 **Alarming Arrest After Rally Chaos in London** 🚨
Over the weekend, central London was a scene of chaos as tensions soared during the “Unite the Kingdom” rally organized by far-right activist Tommy Robinson. With crowds between 110,000 and 150,000 strong, and a significant counter-demonstration of about 5,000 anti-racism protesters, the atmosphere was charged.
Amidst the commotion, a shocking moment captured on video sent ripples across social media. A man was allegedly heard saying, “Keir Starmer needs to be assassinated,” along with other threatening remarks. This led to the arrest of a 56-year-old on suspicion of malicious communications. He was taken into custody but has since been released on bail as investigations continue.
The weekend’s events saw a mix of peaceful protests overshadowed by isolated violence. The Metropolitan Police reported that out of 24 arrests made on the day, most were linked to the “Unite the Kingdom” rally. As chaos unfolded, authorities anticipate making around 50 more arrests, and eight individuals have already been charged with various offences, from assault to public disorder.
Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley expressed concern over the minority who resorted to violence, marring an event that drew vast crowds with varying views.
