Overview
- Police put the peak attendance at roughly 1,000, a sharp drop from the 110,000–150,000 at Robinson’s September march.
- The gathering passed largely peacefully as officers enforced Public Order Act conditions and made two arrests, including one for assaulting a mounted officer nearby.
- Stand Up To Racism held a counter‑protest of about 200 people that was kept separate from Robinson’s event.
- The Church of England released its ‘Christmas Isn’t Cancelled’ video and bishops warned against using Christian imagery to justify racism or anti‑migrant rhetoric.
- Robinson framed the concert as a religious celebration following a reported prison conversion and indicated plans for future faith‑branded events.
