Morning Wire · Is Britain Having A Patriotic Awakening? · 25 May 2026 podcast

But very quickly, we began to see that it's often about what's happening here as well.

We see very few British flags or English flags.

There's a kind of quite a hostile and aggressive approach here.

Many people say they're scared to come into London.

And often it's presented that if you criticize those things, you're an Islamophobe or you're a racist.

But actually, there are many people, as they say, of color that are not comfortable with these things and people that are moderate Muslims as well.

They don't want to be associated with things that in many instances have ruined their own nations.

And yet it becomes presented as a whole thing.

And

So then what happened is that the organizers, what they've now said is that they're doing it around the Nakba, which is in the creation of the state after the Arab-Israeli wars in 1948, that basically they have this Nakba, which is the disaster.

And within that, they also said this is a counter-demonstration to unite the kingdom.

So that was their reasoning.

And it was so interesting because the thing is, words are really important, as Orwell and others always reminded us, because when you make a word meaningless, it's very dangerous because you need to be able to use and identify these words to actually... Because there are people that are actually...

far right and there are people that are racist and we need to be able to decipher and discern that and explain it and I think we should thrash those ideas out in society and let the antiseptic of reason illuminate those things and we can debate them actually Britain's got a very good record of being very welcoming of out of all of Europe and internationally of having lots of different people and communities that's something very different to people's concerns about mainly men young men coming in on boats and illegally

into communities and we've had 200,000 since, you know, only in the last sort of nine or 10 years.

We've got many people on a watch list with intelligence services.

We've had a variety of incidents, terrible things like knife attacks and other things.

And then of course, rapes and sexual assaults.

And so people have got genuine concerns about those things and they should be able to discuss these things without them being smeared and branded.

And that's something that's very concerning to people and people are very furious about it.
