In London on Saturday, there were two marches: the Unite the Kingdom rally attended by ordinary Brits and the Nakba Day 2026 protest attended by “pro-Palestinians.”
“[They] clearly demarcated the two faces of Britain. One is open, loving and unifying (while honest about the threats we face), the other is masked, hateful and has murder in its heart. Britain needs to choose the former, even though our overlords do everything they can to embolden the latter,” Frank Haviland writes.

The Two Faces of Britain
By Frank Haviland, 17 May 2026
“Division” is one of those overused w*nk-words governments employ to tell you whose side of the debate you should find yourself on. In Britain, towns increasingly split along religious fault lines, migrants who refuse either to follow our laws or integrate and grooming gangs that target white, working-class girls, calling them “white slags,” are euphemised as “diversity.” The native British people, meanwhile, who dare to notice them, are increasingly referred to as “divisive.”
So it played out predictably on the streets of London this weekend, as our capital hosted two very different demonstrations. On one side stood the Nakba Day protest, a commemoration of the 1948 displacement of Palestinians. In reality, this was little more than the ongoing “pro-Palestine” marches that have dogged the streets of Britain for the last few years. On the other side was Tommy Robinson’s latest “Unite the Kingdom” rally, focusing on cultural cohesion, the dangers of mass immigration and a stand against the erosion of British identity. The contrast in both appearance and treatment from the authorities could scarcely have been more glaring.
In the days leading up to the event, the Home Office moved aggressively to disrupt the Unite the Kingdom march. Eleven conservative speakers from overseas were banned from entering Britain on vague “public order” grounds, with, one has to say, impressive and uncustomary speed. These included the Dutch commentator, Eva Vlaardingerbroek, whose crime appears to be her criticism of Keir Starmer, the Polish MEP and opponent of illegal immigration, Dominik Tarczyński, as well as Rebel News journalist, Ezra Levant. While said speakers might be considered “racy” outside of BBC / Guardian dinner-party circles, they’re hardly in the same league as the former Al Qaeda leaders Starmer is happy to host in Downing Street.
Alongside the bans, security was ramped up from the get-go. While content to kneel, turn a blind eye, or protect the hate marches from those with the audacity to “look openly Jewish,” suddenly the Old Bill had discovered the meaning of “the full force of the law.” Live facial recognition cameras were rolled out specifically for UTK – technology the Metropolitan Police has been strikingly reluctant to deploy against the hate marches (though, in fairness, what’s the point when the protesters routinely wear masks anyway?). More than 4,000 officers were drafted in, supported by drones, helicopters, horses, dogs and armoured vehicles.
After years of shrugging off “Globalise the Intifada” and “Death to Jews,” the Crown Prosecution Service mysteriously issued new legal guidance on the use of “offensive banners, slogans, chants or symbols”:
If you didn’t know better, you’d swear the authorities had picked a side.
One set of protesters it wanted to see.
One set, it did its best to ignore.
As is so often the case, however, the clue is in the name. Saturday’s main demonstration was called “Unite The Kingdom.” The crowd came from all walks of life: working-class families, middle England, ordinary Brits who rightly believe their country’s rapid demographic and cultural transformation has been imposed without their consent. The other side? “Pro-Palestine” – and therefore “anti-Israel,” “anti-Zionism,” “anti-Jew”; routinely masked, aggressively hostile and as usual shouting charming little slogans such as “Shoot him in the neck like Charlie Kirk.”
With characteristic sanctimony, Prime Minister Starmer declared his championing of peaceful protest, while accusing the UTK organisers of “peddling hatred and division.” Desperate to instruct the plebs in what they were permitted to think, he insisted they didn’t “speak for the decent, fair, respectful Britain” he knew. Sir Keir took to X with the zeal of an Archbishop and the authority of a milk-monitor. If the Starmer administration teaches us anything, it is surely the age-old maxim: never trust anyone whose eyes light up at the sight of a clipboard and a red pen.
Yet even with every obstacle placed in their path: the foreign bans, the selective surveillance, the flooding of central London with police and open provocations by counter protesters such as Led By Donkeys, who blasted “immigration makes Britain brilliant” propaganda into the crowd, the result was telling. The Met Police’s own verdict was clear: the Unite the Kingdom rally “proceeded largely without any significant incident.” Across both events, arrests totalled 43. Several were for outstanding warrants. A handful of officers were assaulted. There were no stabbings, no mass violence, no muggings, no sexual assault. Despite the heavy-handed policing and deliberate wind-ups, the predicted (and longed for) “far-right threat” failed to materialise.
This pattern is not new. At last year’s Unite the Kingdom rally, there was only 25 arrests – an astonishingly low rate, considering police estimates of 100-150,000 attendees (and those numbers are disputed as being considerably on the low side). By contrast, other large gatherings tell a different story. Last year’s Notting Hill Carnival racked up 528 arrests, dozens of assaults on officers and multiple stabbings. Palestine Action protests managed 890 arrests in September 2025, while Just Stop Oil actions have produced hundreds of arrests on single days. And yet only one side of the divide faces foreign-speaker bans, months of ministerial briefings framing them as a danger to the “soul of the country,” and the full weight of the government machine.
There is a reason for this.
The government knows precisely whom it fears: ordinary, decent working- and middle-class Brits, who dare to think the wrong thoughts about immigration and consistently vote “the wrong way.” By attempting to provoke the very disorder it could then condemn and smear, the government continues to use draconian powers to suppress the “far-right thugs” who object to the 30-year invasion it neither wanted nor consented to. It failed. Even with reduced turnout from the previous event, the message from the streets was unmistakable: the double standard is now visible to anyone willing to look.
For a Prime Minister whose approval ratings have collapsed and whose party is reeling from poor local election results, the political temptation is obvious – distract from failures on borders, integration, crime and public trust by painting patriotic concern as the real threat to social cohesion. But the script, written so carefully in advance, has been exposed. In Starmer’s Britain, two-tier policing is not an unfortunate side-effect. It is deliberate policy.
The real division on Saturday was not just the marchers. It was best observed between the governing class, which lectures endlessly about unity while practising division, and the British public that can see the hypocrisy with its own eyes. The Unite the Kingdom demonstrators refused to play their allotted role. That, more than anything, is what the authorities cannot forgive.
For my money, UTK proved three things:
- Britain is not done, no matter how much Cassandras like myself keep wailing that it is.
- Tommy Robinson deserves a knighthood for services to Britain, though I suspect he’s about as likely to get one as I am for services to literature.
- “Keir Starmer’s a Wanker” ought to be released as a single, or at the very least our entry for Eurovision next year
Saturday’s marches clearly demarcated the two faces of Britain. One is open, loving and unifying (while honest about the threats we face), the other is masked, hateful and has murder in its heart. Britain needs to choose the former, even though our overlords do everything they can to embolden the latter.

“I am not fooled by Tommy Robinson, he is simply using British patriots for his own agenda, which is Israel’s agenda…
Under the guise of uniting the country he is creating division to fuel anger and make people focus on the ‘Islam threat’ whilst ignoring the ‘Israel threat’ who are actually the engineers of the Islamic threat.
If you look into who is aiding and abetting the invasion of Islamic immigrants into Europe you will find it’s Jewish NGOs…”

some of us are opposed to murder being waged against the Palestinian people – Christian and Muslim – and I am sure having attended 1 or 2 marches against the mass murders and ethnic cleansing going on, many of the good folks who walked on Saturday for peace do not deserve to be attacked and sloganized as the author above cares pouring
more oil on the fire. unfortunately Tommie has become a Zionist asset. I attended the first Unite the Kingdom walk- but was unable to join Saturday’s because it was deliberately timed to clash with the peace march.If Britain wants peace the British State needs to stop its endless war habit and stop dropping bombs on babies anywhere. Migrations follow from wars.
Hi Paul, I’m hoping you are also opposed to Islamists killing Christians in, for example, Nigeria…
What is happening in Nigeria and Sudan is far greater than what is happening in the Middle East. Have you attended any mass marches against the genocides happening in Nigeria and Sudan by Islamists?
Islamists also target Muslims who do not bow down to Islamism. Did you attend any marches for Gazans being murdered by the Islamist organisation Hamas when Israel began their withdrawal from Gaza? Did you attend marches for the genocide of Christians and Druzes by the new Islamist regime in Syria? Did you attend any mass marches for Iranian protestors killed by the Islamist regime in Iran?
Moving onto communist regimes. Have you attended any mass marches for the Christians, Uyghurs and Falun Gong practitioners being persecuted in China?
If you truthfully answer yes, to all of those questions, I applaud you. If not, I have to wonder why not, and whose asset you have become.
Well said
Hi coline,
How about this.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkhbsR4yiS0
How Tommy founded the EDL
Coline, you’re absolutely right.
Yjnon Oded Plan is behind the mass immigration, the destruction of the white race by muslim and African immigrants.
Well said, Coline. Another very uncomfortable truth for many to swallow.
Funded by Soros and the other Zioz
He would leave if he could.
🙏🙏

can we just stop with all the hating please … on the surface I yaxley lennon is a hero (refer his oxford union speech after calling out rape by muslim abusers in Leicester) … but he appears to be Zionist … instigators of rape and murders in Gaza – FOR GODSSAKE stop this – stop it all … we are all being played, by division and rule by those higher up The Pyramid of Power … the bloody loosh sucking reptiles who love all this, THEY FEED OFF fear energy ………. STOP IT – STOP GIVING THEM OUR ENERGY …..·
Hi Jenn, what do you believe a “Zionist” is?
You believe “Zionists” are “instigators of rape and murders in Gaza.” Not only is that deliberately divisive rhetoric, but its also a big, all encompassing claim to make without providing anything to substantiate it – and it indicates you don’t understand what a Zionist is and causes suspicion that you are simply using “Zionist” as a race baiting buzzword. As you quite rightly state, “can we just stop with all the hating please.”
Do you have a source for the claim you’ve made? I ask because there is a lot of anti-Jewish/anti-Zionist/anti-Israel propaganda being disseminated on the internet – much of it is war propaganda originating from the regime in Iran and other Islamist groups – and in some cases this propaganda is being spread by corporate media as well (you will notice left-wing corporate media is particularly guilty of this.)
For example, in an opinion piece by Nicholas Kristof, published by the New York Times, he clamed Israeli soldiers and prison guards used trained dogs to sexually assault “Palestinian” detainees.
What we need to remember is that an opinion piece is just that – it is an opinion of the writer, it is not evidence based. If the New York Times had any evidence to support Kristof’s claims, it would not have been published as an “opinion” piece, it would have been published as a New York Times’ “investigation.”
Now Israel is quite rightly suing the New York Times for publishing Kristof’s opinion. I’m guessing that as long as the New York Times/Kristof is sued for less than they were paid to publish it, they/he still win/s (financially). So the New York Times/Kristof will see it as a risk that was worth taking – and will likely do it again.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/israel-sues-nyt-over-kristof-column-that-alleged-widespread-rape-of-palestinian-prisoners/ar-AA23bIrE
I’m going to hazard a guess that social media and “pro-Palestinian” outlets/groups were buzzing with the “news” about Kristof’s opinion, but haven’t been so keen to spread the news that the New York Times is being sued for publishing it. Even if the New York Times is made to retract Kristof’s opinion piece and publish a correction, it is too late: the fallacy and resulting hate/discrimination has been widely spread and has already become a belief for many. As you said, “we are all being played.”
The root of the problem is we live in a fake democracy where most folks still believe their vote or a march makes a difference.
Clearly, ‘Tommy’ is a paid agitator for Israel support and the Crown and its government support him from the all evidence. Crown prosecution service plays the usual inadequacy of what the nation actually needs by ignoring reality and just follows the Crown directive.
Engineered devision with both sides going along with it… Unbeknownst to the majority. Differences ought to be put aside.
