'Deleted from society': Tommy Robinson sounds alarm on UK free speech crackdown as Keir Starmer escalates surveillance push



As Britain cracks down on free speech and heightens surveillance measures, it’s becoming a cautionary tale for the rest of the Western world — one that Tommy Robinson has experienced firsthand.

“They wanted us isolated, they wanted us alone, wanted total control, which they had. Total control. I was invisible,” Robinson tells Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck, explaining that the media in the U.K. has branded him as one of the “far-right, racist, extremist agitators who are intent on violence.”

“You couldn’t even mention my name ... deleted from society for daring to show — and what was I showing? The problems of mass open-border immigration,” Robinson says.

“Why do they want to hide it?” he asks. “Because it lays at their feet.”


And U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s latest ad is only proving Robinson right.

“This is our country with a majority who share those values. A majority who may not always be as loud but must always define who we are. So my government will not stand in the way of peaceful protest,” Starmer said, adding, “But we will act decisively against hatred.”

“We will use the full force of the law when that hatred manifests as violence. And we will ban those coming into the U.K. who seek to stir it up as we have done already because this country belong to all of us, and I will not tolerate anyone who seeks to stand in the way of that,” Starmer finished.

Robinson notes that Starmer has already made his last few points in the video crystal clear.

“After the 2024 riots ... he politicized the judiciary, weaponized the media, and he sent mothers to jail for 31 months for tweets. He sent Peter Lynch, a grandfather, to jail, who has died in jail. He sent innocent people to jail,” he explained, noting that Starmer did it to “instill fear in the British public.”

“The problem he’s got is he didn’t instill fear. It lit a fire in the heart of us. ... This is a battle for the soul of this nation, and it’s a battle he’s going to lose. He’s losing,” he continues, adding, “They’re losing. We’re winning the hearts and minds of the public whether he likes it or not.”

UK bans American ‘far-right agitators’ ahead of Tommy Robinson’s Unite the Kingdom march



A massive crowd of British patriots gathered in London on Saturday to participate in Tommy Robinson’s Unite the Kingdom march. However, several international figures who had planned to attend and speak at the event, including some Americans, were absent after Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s government banned them from entering the country.

The Metropolitan Police, which deployed 4,000 officers and admitted it would use facial recognition technology on the crowd, estimated that 60,000 people attended Saturday’s UTK march. However, Robinson insisted attendance was in the “millions.”

'It’s good to know that Britain can enforce its borders and stop people from coming to our country, after consecutive years where legal migration ran above a million.'

Hours ahead of the march, Starmer released a video statement condemning the UTK movement, accusing its organizers of “peddling hatred and division.” He announced that his government had blocked “far-right agitators” who planned to attend the march from entering the country.

Journalist Dan Wootton called Starmer’s video “a despicable and disgusting attack on British patriots.”

“He was wanting to stoke violence,” Wootton told Blaze News. “And hundreds of thousands of proud Englishmen and women proved him wrong. All this Labour government has left now is going after an invisible ‘far right.’”

A press release from the prime minister’s office stated that 11 foreigners were prevented from entering the country “to spew their extremist views.” The government’s press release did not name every individual denied entry, but it did state that it denied entry to “U.S.-based extremist” Valentina Gomez, citing her “inflammatory and dehumanising rhetoric about Muslim communities.”

Gomez blamed the ban on “corrupt politicians” and criticized Starmer for using facial recognition technology against those who attended the rally but not against “muslim rape gangs and violent palestine protests.” A pro-Palestine and anti-Robinson rally was held in London the same day as UTK.

American political commentator Don Keith was also banned from entering the U.K.

“I have no idea why I was banned from the UK other than my friendship with Tommy Robinson and opposition to Keir Starmer’s policies,” Keith wrote in a post on X.

Wootton told Blaze News that Keith was scheduled to co-host Wootton’s podcast, "Outspoken," which was covering the march live.

“This is North Korean stuff,” Wootton continued, referring to Keith’s ban and adding that the media class seems to “think this is completely acceptable.”

“I am disgusted about what’s happening to our country when all we are trying to do is stop an Islamist takeover,” he added.

Joey Mannarino, an American citizen and host on NewsForce, responded to Starmer’s video statement concerning the UTK rally and travel bans.

“I’m one of the people you banned. I went to school in the UK and love your country. I love the people of your country. The British ones. Not the ones your lot caters to,” Mannarino wrote. “You’re truly a disgrace to the beautiful nation which you ‘represent.’”

Others who were banned from entering the country ahead of the march included journalists Ezra Levant and Avi Yemini, politicians Dominik Tarczyński and Filip Dewinter, and political commentators Eva Vlaardingerbroek and Ada Lluch.

These individuals were notified that their presence “is not considered to be conducive to the public good.”

Connor Tomlinson, a London-based political commentator, told Blaze News, “It’s good to know that Britain can enforce its borders and stop people from coming to our country, after consecutive years where legal migration ran above a million. Unfortunately, Keir Starmer only wants to block foreigners warning against the replacement, rape, and murder of the British people from entering, rather than the perpetrators of such crimes.”

Tomlinson called Starmer “Britain’s most hated prime minister on record.”

“This rally seemed more sparsely attended, likely due to divisions in the nationalist base over whether Britain should be involved in the Iran war. But if it plays a role in expediting the destruction of the Labour Party, then it was worthwhile,” Tomlinson added.

Glenn Beck to risk lifetime ban from UK to speak at Tommy Robinson’s Unite the Kingdom rally



Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck, who traveled to London this week to speak at the upcoming Unite the Kingdom Rally on Saturday, warned “The Glenn Beck Program” listeners that it may be his last time in the country.

Beck spoke with U.K. activist Tommy Robinson on Friday to discuss the upcoming march, which is expected to draw a crowd of up to 50,000 people, and the new government threats against those who attend.

'The future of our country is at stake.'

“I was told by Parliament today that if I speak, most likely, I will not be allowed to come back to England ever again,” Beck stated at the start of the program, vowing to speak at the rally even if he is permanently banned from returning.

“I am going to be speaking there, even if it is — sadly, because I love this country — even if this means I’m barred from visiting this country for the rest of my life. So be it,” Beck declared.

He noted that Saturday’s rally would include a tribute to Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated last year while speaking on a Utah college campus. He emphasized that the march would be “very peaceful” and “family-driven.”

A day ahead of the rally, U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer released a video condemning the UTK movement, accusing its organizers of “peddling hatred and division.”

“My government will not stand in the way of peaceful protest, but we will act decisively against hatred. We will use the full force of the law when that hatred manifests as violence,” Starmer stated. “And we will ban those coming into the U.K. who seek to stir it up, as we have done already.”

Beck stated that Starmer’s video “just screams setup to me,” noting that he had a similar “bad feeling” a couple of days before the Jan. 6, 2021, protest at the U.S. Capitol.

Robinson joined Beck to talk about the breakdown of leadership in Great Britain, particularly regarding mass immigration and failures to address violent criminals and terrorists. He noted that the government banned numerous individuals, including journalists Ezra Levant and Avi Yemini, from entering the U.K. to attend Saturday’s rally.

“None of them have got criminal convictions, are racists, or any hatred like that,” Robinson told Beck.

“We’re not talking about him banning football hooligans and extremists here. We’re talking about mainstream political opinions that [Starmer] doesn’t agree with. ... They just banned these 11 people as far-right, racist extremist agitators who are intent on violence. They just make it up.”

Robinson stated that the UTK rally will include gospel bands, Christian pastors, speeches, and other performances.

The Metropolitan Police will deploy 4,000 officers to the UTK event. The department is planning to use live facial recognition technology at the UTK rally, according to MP Deputy Assistant Commissioner James Harman. However, the department does not plan to use the technology at a nearby pro-Palestine protest the same day, which is expected to draw 30,000 participants, GB News reported.

Beck stated that this is the first time the government has publicly admitted to using facial recognition.

“That’s to send a message … [that] you’re an enemy of the state,” Beck said, adding that government officials aim to “make the crowd frightened.”

“The future of our country is at stake,” Robinson remarked.

Fatally stabbed British teen bled out in cop's handcuffs after Sikh suspected murderer cried racism



A 23-year-old Sikh man is on trial in the United Kingdom for the December murder of an 18-year-old Englishman.

Vickrum Digwa is accused of fatally slashing and stabbing first-year Southampton University student Henry Nowak of Essex. Digwa's mother, Kiran Kaur, is also on trial for conspiring with her son after the fact by allegedly removing the murder weapon from the scene of the attack.

Already in the trial, prosecutors have furnished members of the jury with plenty of insights into Nowak's death — alleging, for example, that:

  • Nowak encountered Digwa on his way home from a night out with his soccer team, during which he consumed less than the drink-drive limit;
  • Nowak captured footage on his phone of Digwa openly carrying around an 8-inch Sikh blade, extra to the smaller kirpan blade he was also carrying around his neck;
  • Nowak's phone containing the damning footage was ultimately found in the suspected killer's pocket;
  • the victim, spouting blood, desperately attempted to climb a fence to escape his attacker, only to have the alleged Sikh killer "aggressively pursue him";
  • Digwa's mother was captured on video taking the murder weapon back to the family home;
  • Digwa told his brother while in police custody that he stabbed the victim multiple times; and
  • analysis found DNA from the mother, hairs from Digwa, and blood from Nowak on the knife.

One of the more troubling allegations actually concerns the conduct of the British police who first arrived on the scene.

Around 11:30 p.m. on Dec. 3, 2025, police were called to the scene of an altercation taking place on Portswood's Belmont Road.

Digwa presented himself to the first officers on the scene as the victim, telling them that he was "racially abused and attacked by a drunken man," prosecutor Nicholas Lobbenberg told jurors Thursday.

"He didn't seek help for the man he had injured with his sizeable knife; instead he accused him of being a racist and being drunk," added Lobbenberg, reported the Daily Mail.

According to the prosecutor, police handcuffed Nowak while he was dying from four stab wounds including two wounds to the back of his legs and one in the lung. Only when the pierced and bleeding Briton collapsed did police reportedly start administering first aid.

Digwa's lawyer, Jeremy Wainwright, claimed that the alleged murderer was carrying a dagger "for religious purposes" and had acted in the "heat of the moment" in self-defense — a statement that jurors might have difficulty believing on account of the wounds on the back of the victim's legs.

'His story will not be buried.'

Wainwright also strongly insinuated that his client was responding to a "racially motivated attack" by the dead and unarmed Englishman.

"You will be shocked and upset when you see the state of Henry Nowak and when you hear what's shouted at what is tragically a dying man," said Wainwright. "But did Digwa and his brother at the time realize they were dealing with a dying man, or was their anger generated by someone who was drunk, who had racially attacked them, and they weren't aware of the extent of those injuries?"

In light of the revelations about the dying victim's treatment by Hampshire Police, Turning Point UK and other critics have called for the termination of the officers responsible and for the department to "apologize for their disgraceful behavior believing false allegations of racism, over a man who had been violently stabbed."

Hampshire Police did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Blaze News.

The victim posthumously maligned by the suspect and his attorney was, according to the Villarrealgorithm CF and Southampton University Football Club, "the kind of lad who, when he walked into a room, instantly lifted the mood. Henry had a big heart and an even bigger personality, and he will be incredibly missed by everyone."

Nowak's mother noted in the wake of his death, "Our lives are irreparably changed. Our hearts are broken beyond repair. But his name will not fade. His story will not be buried."

On July 11, Nowak's family and friends will join others at Aveley Football Club for a celebrity charity soccer match in honor of the young man and his memory.

Why Britain’s Elections Portend Trouble For America

Britain is fracturing along ethnic lines, steadily marching toward civil war along with the entire western world — including the United States.

Britain's first homosexual 'parent' via baby purchase charged with rape, sexual exploitation



Barrie Drewitt-Barlow, the 57-year-old multimillionaire owner of Isthmian League football club Maldon and Tiptree, has long been an advocate for homosexuals acquiring children, specifically through surrogacy.

In 1999, Drewitt-Barlow and Tony Barlow became Britain's first homosexual couple registered as "parents" through surrogacy, having purchased twins for hundreds of thousands of dollars. Altogether, the couple ended up buying five children from four surrogate mothers in the United States before Drewitt-Barlow left his "husband" for the young ex-boyfriend of one of the girls in his care.

'They have groomed them,' a UK prosecutor claims.

With his new squeeze, Scott Drewitt-Barlow — and his ex temporarily living with them in a Florida mansion — the homosexual activist quickly obtained another child through in vitro fertilization, and then another two.

While Barrie Drewitt-Barlow has drawn ample criticism over his manner of acquiring babies, he is now in hot water for his alleged dealings with an older demographic.

Barrie Drewitt-Barlow — who claimed on British television last year that he paid a super model over $68,000 for her eggs to reduce the risk of having an "ugly" child — and his 32-year-old "husband," Scott, were arrested in Essex, U.K., on Wednesday and slapped with numerous sexual assault and sexual exploitation charges.

The United Kingdom's Crown Prosecution Service announced on Friday that the elder gay man has been charged with three counts of sexual assault on a male; four counts of rape of a male 16 or older; and two counts of arranging or facilitating travel of another person with a view to exploitation.

Scott Drewitt-Barlow has been charged with one count of sexual assault on a male; one count of rape of a male 16 or older; and two counts of arranging or facilitating travel of another person with a view to exploitation.

Christian Meikle of the CPS stated, "The Crown Prosecution Service has decided to charge Barrie Drewitt-Barlow and Scott Drewitt-Barlow following a police investigation into alleged human trafficking for sexual exploitation and rape."

Prosecutor Serena Berry said, "It is alleged they have both targeted young males, they have recruited them, they have befriended them, they have groomed them," reported the BBC.

Oliver Snodin, the couple's defense lawyer, said that his clients "strenuously denied" the allegations.

Police raided the couple's home in Essex as well as Barrie Drewitt-Barlow's pub in Braintree.

Charles Not in Charge: King’s Visit Hits All the Right Notes but Doesn’t Reflect Reality

King Charles III’s trip across the Atlantic came at a difficult time. The Iran campaign marks a low point for the transatlantic alliance, his host country is preparing to celebrate the 250th anniversary of evicting his family’s rule, and the "no kings" protests remind Britain’s royals that many Americans still equate monarchy with tyranny.

King Charles III hypes NATO, UK's enduring partnership with 'imaginative rebels' in US



For the first time in nearly 35 years, a British monarch has addressed a joint meeting of the U.S. Congress.

King Charles III, no doubt sensitive to the recent political friction between the U.S. and Britain over the matter of the war in Iran, noted at the outset Tuesday night that these are "times of great uncertainty, in times of conflict, from Europe to the Middle East, which pose immense challenges for the international community and whose impact is felt in communities the length and breadth of our own countries."

Charles emphasized, however, that even in such times, it remains clear that America's and Britain's destinies are entangled and that the two countries share a special "bond of kinship and identity" that is "irreplaceable and unbreakable."

After reassuring lawmakers that his presence stateside was not "part of some cunning rearguard action" and lauding the American founding fathers both as "bold and imaginative rebels with a cause" and inheritors "of the British Enlightenment," Charles hyped the need to build upon and renew the Anglo-American partnership, particularly in the military space.

On the theme of renewal and in an apparent nod to President Donald Trump's repeated insistence that North Atlantic Treaty Organization members boost their defense spending, Charles noted that the U.K. "has committed to the biggest sustained increase in defense spending since the Cold War."

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer committed last year to spending 2.5% of GDP on core defense by April 2027. The U.K., which spent an estimated 2.3% of GDP on defense in 2024, has since entertained the possibility of increasing spending to 3% in the next Parliament — an increase that Starmer said would be made possible by reductions to aid spending.

Charles, speaking weeks after the Trump administration signaled an interest in pulling the U.S. out of NATO, said the military alliance is as relevant now as it was during the Cold War and "in the immediate aftermath of 9/11, when NATO invoked Article Five for the first time."

The king — who acknowledged that "the commitment and expertise of the United States Armed Forces and its allies lie at the heart of NATO" — suggested further that the alliance was imperative to keep "North Americans and Europeans safe from our common adversaries," singling out Ukraine as a nation now in need of defense.

Charles closed his speech with an apparent knock at isolationism, stating, "I pray with all my heart that our alliance will continue to defend our shared values with our partners in Europe and the Commonwealth and across the world and that we ignore the clarion calls to become ever more inward-looking."

The last royal address to Congress was given by Charles' late mother, Queen Elizabeth II, in the wake of the Gulf War. Elizabeth similarly spoke with interest about nurturing Britain's "long-standing friendship with the people of the United States."

"We want to build on that foundation and to do better," said the queen. "And if the going gets rough, I hope you can still agree with your poet Emerson, who wrote in 1847, 'I feel, in regard to this aged England, with a kind of instinct, that she sees a little better on a cloudy day, and that, in storm of battle and calamity, she has a secret vigor and a pulse like a cannon.' You will find us worthy partners, and we are proud to have you as our friends."

Authorities In Britain Are Trying To Criminalize Christian Street Preaching

As Christianity declines in the West, we should expect Christians to be persecuted. It’s already happening in Britain.

He’s Crafty: How George Downing Kept His Head

Today, Sir George Downing is remembered, if at all, for the street and row of brick houses in London that bear his name. This happens to be the address of Britain’s prime ministers, the place where the cabinet meets and where the organs of the British state are meant to be held accountable to the will of the people. It is a great irony then, and perhaps mildly appropriate, that Downing the man was as cynical and traitorous a figure as the 17th century ever produced. Winston Churchill, while residing in his edificial legacy nearly three centuries later, would remember him unflatteringly as "a profiteering contractor." All but forgotten however are the elaborate contours of Downing’s career: spy, diplomat, financier, parliamentarian, early New Englander, and member of Harvard’s first graduating class.
