But aside from Elon Musk, who were the other figures who made speeches? Harriet Williamson runs through the far-right influencers driving the movement.

Tommy Robinson has been fighting for Great Britain most of his adult life. It’s time for Great Britain to return the favor. Tommy will be up on ridiculous terrorism charges in March and this speech I gave at 10 Downing the day they arrested him still rings true today. Please fight for my friend.

This is a protest against a system that has failed the British people. I’m calling for justice for Henry Nowak. His story will not be silenced, and we will fight for the renewal of the UK. With Tommy Robinson 🇬🇧 , law and order will return.
