A bold claim. Though this 4'30" footage boasts a rallying cry soundtrack and is considered to be powerful and/or inspiring by many, it's not immediately clear what it's for or who's behind it. If you're familiar with British socio-political trends, you'll recognise that the answer is 43-year-old Tommy Robinson (born Stephen Yaxley-Lennon). Described by mainstream media as a far-right activist / agitator, and by himself as "a journalist, activist and public figure fighting for the forgotten people of the UK", the father-of-three is associated with calls for free speech, a friendly attitude towards Israel, and a belief that Britain is being overwhelmed by Islamic influences. His vehement, energetic style appeals to many, for various reasons: his 'Unite The Kingdom' rally in favour of free speech last year drew some 150,000 people - by police estimates - to central London. What do you make of this campaign?
