England fans heading to Monday’s World Cup clash in Mexico City have been threatened by far-Left activists, who accuse Britain of colonialism and backing Israel in Gaza. GB News has the story:
A group called the Anti-Globalist Assembly is protesting England’s participation in the tournament, accusing Britain of “perpetuating a colonial system, as well as for its active participation in and complicity with the genocide in Gaza”.
It has also said it wants to “denounce the repression, harassment and violence that the Mexico City Government has inflicted upon searching families, activists, defenders of land, water and housing, as well as trans comrades and sex workers”.
At least two protest groups are plotting to ambush fans and cause disruption similar to scenes witnessed at the tournament’s opening match.
There, an unruly mob proceeded to smash up a nearby lorry before hurling flares and stones at police officers.
That disorder is believed to have been sparked by a mob of 200 masked men who broke away from two groups of 800 protesters in the Mexican capital.
Now, police are deploying a staggering 7,500 officers around the Azteca Stadium for the match, which kicks off at 1am UK time on Monday.
This represents the largest security operation ever mounted for an England football fixture, with one police officer present for every 10 supporters inside the ground.
The scale of the operation is nearly four times greater than Metropolitan Police resources deployed at Wembley during the chaotic Euro 2020 final.
Approximately 8,000 England fans will be vastly outnumbered by millions of Mexicans expected to fill the capital’s streets.

Oh, well. We stuffed them in the early hours and there is nothing like the sight of crying Mexicans in the morning.
🤣
Foregive me but I do not recall any support for Israel or opposition to Hamas &Co in Gaza and Lebanon. The political class are largely anti-Semitic (especially Green and Labour) and the MSM have taken every press release from Hamas as fact without further enquiry.
I wonder which Gates funded foundation put out the message in Mexico the Britain was what I think we should be rather than what we are.
The ostensible reasons for violent leftist protests are just excuses. They riot and assault their opponents because they enjoy it.
And the left don’t get arrested.
Surely they should protest Spain and their conquistadors!
There wouldn’t even be a world cup for them to compete in if it weren’t for Great Britain.
Seeing as how we invented the damned game.
Thicko’s.
Gunner, I think you’ve nailed it!
As stupid as the Egyptians protesting in favour of Gaza. That’s Gaza that they share a border with, and which they have build a seven layer fence system to keep the Gazan’s out of Egypt. Show me a leftie, and I’ll show you stupid.
The Mexicans are the colonialists. Well, the descendants of the colonialists.
The people in the UK and Europe are the ones who stayed behind and…didn’t do the colonising.
More gaslighting.
Some of them. I think the majority are indigenous or mixed indigenous and conquistador stock. Certainly English football fans in 2026 won’t have had much to do with colonising the area that is now Mexico.
I suspect those descended from the conquistadors have had a virtual monopoly on power and wealth in Mexico. The current President is basically a European Jew.
All true! It’s so weird that out of all the millions of Mexicans in Mexico, the Globalists chose a Lithuanian Jewish woman to represent Mexico on the world stage.
Just like out of all the millions of English, Scots, Welsh & Northern Irish in Britain, the Globalists chose a Nigerian woman of the Yoruba Tribe to represent Britain on the world stage (as soon as they can manoeuvre her into power).
Also interesting that looking at pictures of the past Presidents, most or all of them look 100% ethnically Spanish, so pureblood conquistadors – voted for by a population that is predominantly mixed race or fully native.
Oh well done for finding out that fascinating historical snippet!
I also noticed that in the Dominican Republic, which has a similarly mixed population, skin colour and job role were quite closely correlated, with management and customer facing roles being more likely to be filled by people with lighter skin. Clearly they are all racists!
Wow! I had gathered that about Africa, India and the Orient, but never knew the preference for lighter skin was also in Central America, even affecting people’s job prospects.
It’s so interesting that the entire Third World & their Marxist Enablers in the West always accuse White People of racism, while practicing it worldwide themselves!!! We ought to point this out to them more often.
You mean:
“Just like out of all the millions of English, Scots, Welsh & Northern Irish in Britain, the Globalists chose a Nigerian PRINCESS of the Yoruba Tribe”
Um … just about EVERY WEALTHY NIGERIAN claims to be one of the many Nigerian royal “castes”, and call themselves “Prince” or “Princess” (or even “Queen” if they’re one of the Oba’s umpteen wives, some of whom he marries in groups to get the ceremony over with and save money, being an economical ruler). There are literally tens of thousands of them, and when they come to the West, they all call themselves “Prince” or “Princess”.
It means nothing here. We’ve got our own European royals, and don’t need to import tens of thousands of Third World ones, thanks very much.
You must be on the Yoruba Tribal Woman’s Public Relations team, trolling this website.
Mexico wouldn’t exist without colonialism.
The Aztecs would still be playing their ball games.
And sacrificing their young people by the thousands, ripping out their hearts on the temple altars. But somehow England is to blame !!??? … Young Mexicans should be grateful to the Spaniards who put an end to all that:
Human sacrifice in Aztec culture – Wikipedia
But it wasn’t British colonialism, as I recall. Sounds like just an excuse for a football riot, to me.
England, Global Warming & White Males are always to blame for everything bad that ever happened … at any time in history … anywhere in the world … even in Mexico.
Quite. According to the madleft, white people are “world poisoners”.
And failing that it must be Trump and Putin.
Don’t forget Brexit
If anything is likely to unite the fans and the team, tthis is surely it – we’re england everybody hates us and we don’t care…
What “England team”? Spot the Indigenous Englishman on the England team, just like spot the Indigenous Frenchman on the French team.
