Billionaire Elon Musk came out in support of the anti-immigration protests in the United Kingdom, urging the Britons to “fight back or die” for their rights.Addressing the protesters at “Unite the Kingdom” rally virtually, the Tesla CEO said, “My appeal is to British common sense which is to look carefully around you and say if this continues, what world will you be living in this. This is a message to the reasonable center, the people who ordinarily wouldn’t get involved in politics, who just want to live their lives. My message is to them, if this continues, that violence is going to come to you.”“Whether you choose violence or not, violence is coming to you. You either fight back or you die,” he added.
Calling out the Keir Starmer-led UK government’s immigration policies, he said, “There’s a massive incentive on the left to import voters. So if they can’t convince their nation to vote for them, they’re going to import people from other nations to vote for them. It’s a strategy that will succeed if it is not stopped.”Meanwhile, clashes broke out in London during one of Britain’s largest far-right demonstrations, organized by activist Tommy Robinson. Police said between 1,10,000 and 1,50,000 people attended the rally, far more than organizers had expected. Violence erupted when some protesters tried to enter restricted zones near counter-demonstrators, prompting police intervention. Twenty-six officers were injured, four seriously, and 25 people were arrested. A counter-march by Stand Up to Racism drew about 5,000 participants nearby, with roughly 1,000 police deployed to keep the groups apart.
