Keir Starmer says ‘agitators’ will be blocked from attending Tommy Robinson’s Unite the Kingdom event.
Seven people hoping to attend a far-right rally in central London on Saturday have been blocked from entering the country by the home secretary, Shabana Mahmood.
Keir Starmer, the prime minister, promised on Monday to block “far-right agitators” hoping to attend the Unite the Kingdom event on 16 May organised by Tommy Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon.
Joey Mannarino, a US-based commentator, and Valentina Gomez, a Maga influencer, had their authorisation to enter the UK withdrawn on the grounds that their presence “would not be conducive to the public good”. The identities of the other five banned people are not known.
Mannarino is constantly posting racist hate about migrants in Europe and the UK, that every migrant is a rapist etc.
He’s found his niche which is fanning outrage on social media. It’s good that he’s been banned in my opinion. These deplorables are a waste of space.
