Alex Armstrong has launched a blistering attack on Sir Keir Starmer after the Prime Minister vowed to block \u201cfar-right agitators\u201d from entering Britain ahead of this weekend\u2019s Unite the Kingdom rally in London.<\/p>\n

The GB News presenter accused the Labour leader of targeting political opponents while failing to crack down on other extremist demonstrations in the capital.<\/p>\n

Posting on X, Alex wrote: \u201cStarmer attacks the upcoming Unite the Kingdom rally, hailing how he\u2019s banned some social media critics from coming to Britain.<\/p>\n

\u201cMeanwhile, hate marchers have been parading around London for years under his watch, with ZERO intervention by the PM until an alleged terror attack against Jews.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou cannot make it up. This was a speech for the far left of his party, not for the country.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alex’s comments came after Sir Keir used a major speech on Monday to condemn the upcoming demonstration, which is being organised by hard-right activist Tommy Robinson.<\/p>\n

The Prime Minister described the march as an event \u201cdesigned to confront and intimidate\u201d Britain\u2019s diversity, while promising to stop overseas activists travelling to the UK to attend.<\/p>\n

Sir Keir said: \u201cThat is why this Labour Government will block far-right agitators from travelling to Britain for that event because we will not allow people to come to the UK and spread hate on our streets.\u201d<\/p>\n

Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood has reportedly used Home Office powers to revoke entry permissions for at least seven individuals ahead of the protest.<\/p>\n

Among those who are said to be blocked are US-based commentator Valentina Gomez and right-wing commentator Joey Mannarino.<\/p>\n

The Unite the Kingdom rally is expected to attract more than 100,000 people to central London on Saturday, according to police estimates.<\/p>\n

A separate pro-Palestine march marking Nakba Day is also due to take place on the same day, prompting the Metropolitan Police to prepare a major security operation.<\/p>\n

One user replied on X: \u201cDangerous stuff indeed @Alexarmstrong. This is entirely unacceptable.”<\/p>\n

Another added: “Keir Starmer\u2019s decision to block activists from entering the UK to attend the Unite The Kingdom rally on May 16 is a blatant attack on free speech and the democratic right to peaceful assembly.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat about all the Muslim hate preachers he allows? They all need to be shut down once and for all,” penned a third.<\/p>\n

One commenter claimed: \u201cWe have a government that is anti-British, anti-Christian and hates free speech.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another said: \u201cWon\u2019t he just be adding numbers to the march? He really is a bit silly.\u201d<\/p>\n

A further user wrote: \u201cWe have had free speech in Britain for a very long time and long may it continue\u2026 well as long as it\u2019s approved by \u2018my government\u2019 and it\u2019s left leaning! Absolutely tone deaf dictator!\u201d<\/p>\n
