London mayor Sadiq Khan has strongly condemned events linked to recent protests, stating: “There were many appalling Islamophobic incidents, including on the stage of the far-right protest, which I know will be deeply concerning to many. He said it’s clear that the far right organisers of the march were intent on coming to our capital city to spread anti-Muslim hatred and division.” The London mayor angry that no one’s taking meaningful action against it, not even the British Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

London Smith delivers remarks at Rededicate 250 on the National Mall: "I am honored to be here today. On July 4th of last summer, I went to bed after a long day of doing what I loved most. I was a camp counselor at Camp Mystic, where I was honored to care for 17 campers. It was my second summer as a counselor there. I do not believe I was asked to be here today because of anything heroic I did that night. In fact, I could name many other girls who I feel deserve to be here much more than I do. But I do believe I'm here to share what God has done in my life. Not a day has gone by that I do not remember that night, leading my girls out of our cabin through rising waters towards Rec Hall on higher ground. I remember 100 of us climbing to the second floor and crowding onto a narrow balcony, watching water rise to just inches below our feet. I remember losing all hope and feeling completely alone, when my soul stirred my voice to sing the song "Good, Good Father" under my breath. It was a song I would sing whenever I needed the reminder that God is good and on the throne despite my circumstances. It reminded me that He was still a good father, and that above anything else in that moment, I was still deeply loved by Him. And by the grace of God, the water stopped rising and it started to recede. It is hard for me to understand why my life was spared that night while so many others whom I love were not. That is still something that I wrestle with. But even in that grief, I get to hold onto the hope and the promise of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Because I know this: there is still a God of love and miracles in our midst. If you begin to listen, to watch, and to pursue a relationship with Him, I am sure you will see it. Thank you."
