In response to a critical situation in the UK, travelers are being strongly advised to reconsider their plans, especially in London where 65% of stores and businesses are facing disruptions. Concerns for visitors have escalated as a disturbing trend of incidents targeting individuals of Asian descent has emerged, prompting calls for tourists, particularly those from Asian backgrounds, to postpone their trips to the UK until the situation stabilizes.
Meanwhile, anti-racist demonstrators have mobilized across the United Kingdom to counter far-right rallies aimed at targeting immigration centers. Amid fears of escalating violence following misinformation surrounding a fatal stabbing incident, far-right groups had planned protests at numerous locations nationwide. However, the presence of thousands of counter-protesters in over a dozen cities has effectively thwarted these efforts, safeguarding immigration facilities from potential attacks.
