The homelessness charity said the march does not align with its values after Osbourne confirmed she would attend Tommy Robinson’s rally.
- Homelessness charity Centrepoint severed ties with television personality Sharon Osbourne after she signaled attendance at an anti-immigration rally organized by activist Tommy Robinson.
- Posting "See you at the march" on Instagram, Osbourne announced she would join the "Unite The Kingdom" rally on May 16, described by Robinson as a movement against mass immigration.
- Clarifying her status as a contractor, a Centrepoint spokesperson stated, "Political activity like this runs counter to our values" and confirmed Osbourne was not an official ambassador.
- Public response proved mixed, with some expressing "disappointment" while others praised Osbourne for "speaking up unlike every other celebrity."
- Activist Robinson, also known as Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, leads the May 16 event following a September protest that drew between 110,000 and 150,000 attendees despite his permanent bans from Instagram.
