In July 2018, during President Trump's visit to the United Kingdom, demonstrators in support of far-right activist Tommy Robinson as well as Trump were held.[8][9] The march in support of the US president were organized just a day after there was a held a big rally to oppose President Trump's visit to Britain. It had been planned from the beginning that Trump's supporters would merge with those of the EDL founder.[10] The pro-Trump protesters wore Make America Great Again hats chanting "USA" as they also supported Tommy Robinson.[11]

A day before the protests, Scotland Yard had announced that it would impose restrictions to "prevent serious disorder and disruption to Londoners"[10] after violence was witnessed during the previous protest in a bid to free Robinson. The order stated that no vehicles would be involved and the two groups of protesters had to use the route from Temple Place to Whitehall. Even as the two groups merged to protest, Trump himself had not made any public remark on the imprisonment of Tommy Robinson. Nonetheless, his son Donald Trump Jr. had expressed his support for the extremist on his Twitter handle. Also, the Republican Congressman Paul Gosar who also attended the "Free Tommy" rally as well as the former White House chief strategist, Steve Bannon, who had given a message supporting the protest to free Robinson.[10]
