1,000s Gather in London to Hear T. Robinson Deliver Banned Right-Wing Activist’s Speech

LONDON, United Kingdom — Thousands of free speech enthusiasts, alongside a handful of hard-left and Islamist opposition, gathered at Speakers’ Corner in London’s Hyde Park this afternoon to hear a speech written by Generation Identity’s Martin Sellner, delivered by former EDL leader Tommy Robinson.

Sellner was banned from entry by the UK government earlier this month, for daring to lead a right-wing organisation which sheds light on Islamic extremism and mass migration on the continent of Europe.

Robinson — formerly of the Rebel Media — delivered the speech to thousands who gathered in the snow at the historic Speaker’s Corner, the home of free speech in London for hundreds of years.

Marx, Lenin, Orwell, and others have famously given speeches at Speaker’s Corner, which is what drove Sellner and Robinson to pick the spot to deliver the speech (below).

Thousands listened to the speech live in person, while tens of thousands watched online.

Robinson told Breitbart London: “The true battle for free speech started today. This is just the start.

“The public have to support free speech so I want to say a personal thank you to everyone who spent their hard earned money and time travelling to London today.”

The event was mostly peaceful, though a handful of Muslim counter-protesters attempted to shout Robinson down, leading to a few scuffles. Breitbart London understands there were a handful of arrests, and also sectarian Muslim-on-Muslim scuffles.

Snow? What’s that?

Isn’t this March 2018?

The following is not about Pegida or the banned speech in the U.K. but in its own way it still serves:

Robinson told Breitbart London: “The true battle for free speech started today. This is just the start.

I'd say it really started in about the 1750s, became hot on 19 April 1775, was publicly proclaimed on 04 July 1776, and formally decided on 03 September 1783.

Nevertheless, welcome to the party.

Great Britain doesn't have a first amendment. They can stifle anybody they want.

They're slowly becoming Britainistan.

They are admitting to “thousands”. Is that as accurate as our MSM reporting “dozens” of pro-Life, -Second Amendment, or -Trump supporters at an event?

[null and void]

Great Britain doesn't have a first amendment. They can stifle anybody they want.

With no 2nd Amendment, who there can stop them?

The Brits have lost the war against Muslims.

[Maine Mariner]

it was a willing surrender.

[Does so]

When I visited Hyde Park in 1961, I found myself listening to a black African espousing Communism. (A real wake-up!)

They're slowly becoming Britainistan.

Worse, they're hellbent on becoming Airstrip One...

HOORAY Tommy Robinson!

[Phil DiBasquette]

Was this before or after he begat the purple lipped rat eared dogeater?

[Ben Ficklin]

Lutz Bachman didn’t get to hear the speech. He planned on attending but the UK refused to let him in the country, like Southern, Pettibone, and Sellner.

[Albion Wilde]

Go Tommy bump

[aspasia]

Rough bunch. Without security he will wind up like Theo van Gogh.

[leaning conservative]

That was such a perfect adaptation of the book. John Hurt was heartbreaking.

[aspasia]

Any image of violence there will be used to associate with free-speech activists.
