Thousands joined a Momentum demonstration to oppose far-right activist Tommy Robinson in London.
The march was led by women and migrants standing in opposition to the far right’s attempt to use the issues of sexual violence and child abuse to justify Islamophobia and racism. The counter-demonstration came just two weeks after Robinson was appointed an advisor to UKIP on ‘grooming gangs and prison’, and less than a week from when he was threatened with legal action over a Facebook video spreading misinformation about a refugee child in Huddersfield.
