Musk urges London rally to fight back or you die drawing condemnation

Elon Musk urged attendees at a large far right anti-immigration rally in central London on Saturday to "fight back or you die," calling for the dissolution of Parliament and warning that "violence is coming to you," in remarks that have drawn widespread condemnation and renewed calls for action against the tech billionaire. The speech, delivered by video link to the Unite the Kingdom event organised by activist Tommy Robinson, came as tens of thousands of people filled Whitehall and surrounding streets and clashes between protesters, counterprotesters and police left officers injured and dozens arrested.

Estimates of the rally's size varied, with authorities placing attendance between about 110,000 and 150,000 and organisers and supporters posting higher figures. The Metropolitan Police said officers faced "significant aggression," reporting that 26 police were hurt, four seriously, and that between 24 and 26 people were arrested on suspicion of offences including affray, violent disorder, assault and criminal damage. The force said it was continuing a post-event investigation and had released images of people it wanted to identify and trace.
