Tommy Robinson’s ‘Unite the Kingdom’ protest on Saturday so hundreds of thousands take to the streets, and Tommy also called for the dissolution of Parliament in his latest attack on Keir Starmer.
After the events, former Good Morning Britain presenter Piers, 60, took to social media to share his thoughts. On Twitter /X, Piers shared an aerial view of the jam-packed streets.
He wrote: “To condemn all these people who attended yesterday’s @TRobinsonNewEra as far-right thugs is false. Just as it’s false to say they were all a bunch of angelic choristers. Many were there because they genuinely care about their country, failed immigration policies and free speech.”

However, Tommy, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley, responded by slamming Piers for what he said was “riding the wave”. The 42-year-old reposted Piers’ comment and said: “Don’t try riding the wave you w**ker @piersmorgan.
“People like you made it impossible for people to speak out with your baseless labels “racist “ Islamophobe” “far right “ you have been part of the problem not the solution.”
But Piers wasn’t prepared to let the comments go and was quick to continue the bickering. He replied: “Pipe down, Bottle Job. You’re not a wave I ever want to ride.”
And then, with a proposition for his foe, Piers added: “But if you grow a pair, I’m still up for doing the interview you keep ducking.”

During Saturday’s rallies, Elon Musk appeared on a big screen with a message. However, he has been slammed for telling a far-right rally that “violence is coming” to the UK.
The tech billionaire made the inflammatory comments at Tommy Robinson’s “Unite the Kingdom” protest on Saturday, where he also called for the dissolution of Parliament in his latest swipe at Keir Starmer’s Government.
Business Secretary Peter Kyle said of the rallies: “I thought that they were slightly incomprehensible comments that were totally inappropriate. But what we saw yesterday was over 100,000 people who were expressing freedom of association, freedom of speech, and proving that both of those things are alive and well in this country.
“A small minority of people who are protesting committed acts of violence against our police for which they should and they will be held accountable.”
It’s said that between 110,000 and 150,000 people turned out for the rally, while around 5,000 anti-racism campaigners mounted a counter-protest.
Following the events, Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood condemned violent scenes after protesters clashed with police. She vowed that anyone “taking part in criminal activity will face the full force of the law”.
