On June 14, anti-immigration rallies in Sheffield and Brighton drew hundreds of protesters waving flags and speakers like Siobhan Whyte, whose daughter Rhiannon was killed in 2024 by a Sudanese asylum seeker. Counter-protests led to arrests and viral videos showing forceful police actions, including one of officers securing a crying 5-year-old boy during his father's arrest at an earlier event. Protesters accuse police of harsher treatment toward native Brits compared to other groups, a claim Prime Minister Keir Starmer denies, as footage fuels debates over trust and safety amid rising migration tensions.
