Two major rallies are set to take place just one mile apart in central London this weekend but politically, culturally and ideologically - they could scarcely be further apart.
On one side is Tommy Robinson’s “Unite The Kingdom” march, presented by organisers as a demonstration about British identity, immigration and national culture. On the other is a large pro-Palestine march, whose organisers say they are protesting racism, war and the rise of the far-right.
The competing demonstrations come amid growing political polarisation in Britain, following dramatic local election results that saw major gains for both Nigel Farage’s Reform UK and the Green Party.
It is safe to say populist movements on both the right and left are reshaping British politics, with tensions over immigration, Israel-Gaza, national identity and free speech increasingly dominating public debate.
Piers Morgan is joined by host of The Crucible, Andrew Wilson, founder of The Proud Boys, Gavin McInnes, leader of Advance UK, Ben Habib, Green Party activist & Birkbeck University associate professor, Ashok Kumar, and political commentator with Joe, Ava Santina, to discuss.
