Click bait from Andy Ngo
Its his take on this event:
UK: Trade Union Congress to lead demonstrations in London June 18

The Trade Union Congress plans to lead a demonstration in central London June 18 to denounce the rising cost of living and demand increased wages and labor protections. Participants will gather at Portland Place from 10:30 before marching to Parliament Square for a final rally. Attendance will likely be in the thousands.

Big crowds take to London streets to protest soaring costs

LONDON (AP) — Thousands of people marched through central London on Saturday in a protest over the soaring cost of living in Britain.

Huge crowds flooded into the British capital for the rally to demand that the government do more to help people faced with bills and other expenses that are rising more quickly than their wages.

Meh, stupid kids being stupid.
As @Kuroneko has pointed out, click bait posted by a guy desperate to "go viral" and increase his income, a distraction from the wider disquiet of people suffering under the current economic distress. What's the point in being outraged over a few kids shouting idiotic slogans cos they think it's "edgy". They don't represent the majority of people at the marches who have legitimate reason to be disillusioned with the UK's disfunctional leadership.

So, what did they chant? This is a forum for READING, don't make me watch a fucking YouTube video.

If that had been a small right wing mob shouting Hitler and Franco would it be called "click bait" ? no of course not it would be all over the TV news, the recent flags all along Whitehall for the Jubilee was compared to Nuremberg by some on the left.

The guardian would have it on the front page today. In fact all the guardian needs to scream "far right" is for somebody to wave a union jack flag.
The far left ie Antifa at a BLM demo throwing bottles and bricks at the cops was called "mostly peaceful" by the Guardian.

"Ho, ho, Ho Chi Minh! Che Guevara! Stalin!"
Just putting the three in the same chant shows the stupidity of those involved.

It's a fair question and possibly/probably you're correct. I can't really think of a similar situation in the UK with people chanting support of Hitler, so it's hard to come to a definitive conclusion for me. Charlotteville in the US jumps out but not sure if that is really equivalent.

Anyone who compares the flags in Whitehall for the Jubilee to the Nuremberg rallies is an idiot best ignored.

The “Hidden Tribes” study, surveyed 8,000 Americans in 2017 and 2018 and identified seven groups that shared beliefs and behaviors. The one furthest to the right, known as the “devoted conservatives,” comprised 6% of the population. The group furthest to the left, the “progressive activists,” comprised 8% of the population. Both are as bad as the other in different ways in my opinion. We should not be giving either group the oxygen they need to peddle their idiotic and divisive ideas. Better to focus on the moderate majority who are prepared to listen, compromise and cooperate with each other.

As for the Guardian at least it's independant, the opinion pieces are often insufferable and I avoid them at all costs but rather independant news than the oligarch owned media of Murdoch and the 4th Viscount of Rothermere who look out for their own and their pals interests.
