Well if there is ,,great minds think alike.
Shame it wasn’t the same day as the FLA one, they could have joined together in their demonstration.

Because if they don't report it, it obviously never happened..

At least 30k on the march and again no mainstream media wanted to report it, Why ??
A BBC reporter was there but when asked if he was going to show it he refused to give an answer.
The mainstream media are clearly not doing their job,,, and they wonder why so many people do not trust them.

Anyone wanting to get a selfie with that cretin Tommy Robinson needs their head testing.

The first on your list was the Independent.....tarring it as a far right march
I gave up after that, i could guess what the others wrote about it ignorant lot.

People protesting against the terror attacks, and saying we don't want them here. Obviously just a bunch of right wing fascist racists, innit?

So he's given you several links showing that the march hasn't been ignored by the mainstream media. Including stories in The Mail and The Express and The Spectator. (those left wing ********). . perhaps he should have stuck them in a different order?
Also, if Tommy Robinson is going along to support then I'm afraid most reasonable folk will consider it far-right even if it isn't intended to be sadly.

Lots of newspapers covered it. Nothing on BBC. However, London has large marches all the time. This one, like many, isn't really relevant to headline topics on this subject. They have devoted time to changes in terror legislation which is more relevant.

That doesn't sound like they're reasonable, makes them sound more backward than he is.

For thinking something TR has attached himself to might be right wing?

i fail to see how Tommy Robinson gets the moniker of a far right activist........he is merely making the islamification of large parts of Britain into a mainstream news item...or trying to.....as i have said before this is not a problem for sussex folk but the people of large parts of the north , midlands & London , particularly East London are living with this on a day to day basis .......what do you suggest they do ...?? Move...??

Correct, though you originally said far-right and have amended to just right-wing, two terms that may aswell mean the same thing nowadays. As an aside, the bloke votes labour so they must be right wing too.
How exactly would they stop him from attending? This is a question any actual 'reasonable' people would ask before painting it far right.

You wonder how many on the march have read the legislation to find out what they disagree with and would like changed?
Brighton Fella, which parts do you have a problem with?

I think the point he is making is that your thread's assertion that there was a 'total' media blackout was incorrect.The first on your list was the Independent.....tarring it as a far right march
What investigations and checks did you under take before posting your alternative facts?
Surely the first thing you did was Google the event to see what media had covered it?
Of course if you had you would have found all the links posted by Kalimantan Gull.
