"ALL He Does Is Bash Muslims!" Tommy Robinson & Palestine Rallies ANGER Piers Morgan Panel
5/18/20261 hr 16 min
Piers Morgan covers the two rallies making headlines in Britain this weekend that both caused their fair share of controversy - plus some head-scratching over their turnouts. Tommy Robinson touted his Unite The Kingdom march as ‘the biggest event in British history’ - police say about 50,000 attended - but it wasn’t even the biggest event in London this weekend, given that 84,000 people went to the FA Cup final at Wembley. And there was some equally creative accounting going on a mile away at the rival march in support of Palestine. MP Zara Sultana said she was “proud to join 250 thousand people” at the Nakba rally, which police say was attended by 20,000. Piers Morgan is joined by The Young Turks’ Cenk Uygur, Politics Joe’s political editor Ava Santina, political commentator Don Keith, who was barred from entering the UK to attend Robinson’s rally and Sintish, also known as Based & Bougie, who attended the Unite the Kingdom rally and had some choice words to say about Piers there… Then; former lieutenant colonel and spokesman for the IDF Jonathan Conricus is a regular on Uncensored - and for the first time joins us in our studios to debate British-Palestinian journalist and activist Kieran Andrieu on Gaza and Israel.

What happens all the time with anti-Muslim hatred is projection. For example- I'm not anti-Muslim ... Israelis talking about- I like Muslims who like me. Hold on. Hold on.

I have a no stupid people rule for this show. The way you started this panel and the way you've ended it suggests that you shouldn't have passed our bar.

Well, later in the show, we will debate Israel's threat to sue The New York Times in claims of an Israeli plot to hijack voting at Eurovision Song Contest. We'll begin with the competing rallies held this weekend in London. Tommy Robinson's Unite the Kingdom march has captured the imaginations of many conservatives around the world, not least among the US right wing. And imagination is certainly the word I would use for it. Millions of people have seen this image over the last 48 hours, alongside claims that half the country turned out for Tommy. It shouldn't take a genius to figure out that's not London. In fact, that's not even a real photograph. The police say about 50,000 attended, and despite the usual cries of conspiracy, there's no evidence or reason to think that they're lying. Tommy Robinson, on the other hand, is either lying or just very bad at
