Sharon Osbourne has declared she will be attending a Tommy Robinson rally that’s been organised to oppose immigration.

Last year, the far-right activist and founder of the English Defence League organised a Unite the Kingdom rally that saw more than 100,000 people turn out in London.

The event sparked several incidents of violent disorder that also left some police officers injured.

In the months since there have been several more similar rallies organised, with the next set to take place next month.

This week, Robinson shared a video on social media in which he spoke about May 16 marking the date ‘Britain rises and reunites’.

‘It’s the date the world hears our roar, and that we have had enough of migration and mass immigration and the oppression from a tyrannical government,’ he said.

He then went on to speak about the Labour Government and how his supporters needed to rally to ‘get rid of the tyrants in power’. Robinson then claimed they were responsible for ‘open borders, police oppression, corruption in the judiciary and abuse of the British public’.

‘We’ve had enough of it,’ he said, before making several inflammatory and racist remarks.

Robinson said that after the rally in September, ‘the world was watching’ and he wanted to ‘bring London to a total standstill’.

‘They have tried to silence us for decades, but we will be silenced no more,’ he added.

Despite Robinson’s incredibly controversial and provocative comments and claims made in the video, Sharon didn’t seem to care and expressed her support for what he said publicly.

Commenting on the clip, she declared: ‘See you at the march.’

In recent months, the wife of late Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy – who died in July last year aged 76 – has become more vocal about her political leanings.

In February, she declared online she wanted to run against a convicted terrorist who is standing for election in Birmingham.

After Shahid Butt – who was jailed in Yemen for his role in a terror plot – was announced to be running to be a local councillor in in Sparkhill in the upcoming May local elections, Osbourne decided to throw her hat in the ring.

After watching a video about Butt shared on social media by Great British National Protest founder Richard Donaldson, Osbourne weighed in.

‘This has nothing to do with racism. I think I’m gonna move to Birmingham and put my name down for the ballot to be on the council,’ Sharon commented on Instagram, since picking up nearly 2,800 likes.

She later added: ‘I’m serious.’

Donaldson, whose video Osbourne responded to, is an ex-British Army soldier who has become a far-right campaigner. Last year he raised more than £30,000 in donations to help fund an anti-migrant movement calling for people to engage in protests outside every hotel housing asylum seekers ‘until they are all deported’.

In 2021, Osbourne infamously left the US chat show The Talk after a heated on-air debate about racism, in which she defended Piers Morgan over his criticism of a high-profile TV interview given by Meghan Markle.

In the explosive clash with her co-host Sheryl Underwood, Osbourne was accused of giving ‘validation’ to ‘racist’ views.

She then used expletives, raised her voice and demanded that Underwood ‘educate’ her on racism, before telling her ‘not to cry’ when she became emotional.

The backlash was so significant that the show was then taken off air while network CBS carried out an investigation, with the broadcaster also saying what unfolded was ‘upsetting to everyone involved, including the audience watching at home’.

It also added that Osbourne’s behaviour towards her co-hosts during the episode ‘did not align with our values for a respectful workplace’.

She later described feeling ‘set up’ and like she was a ‘sacrificial lamb’.

Metro has contacted representatives for Sharon Osbourne for comment.

Robbie Williams To Lead Star-Studded Ozzy Osbourne Tribute At This Year’s Brits


Brit Awards organisers have announced plans to honour Ozzy Osbourne’s legacy at this year’s ceremony.

On Thursday evening, it was revealed that the awards show will end with a star-studded musical tribute to the Prince Of Darkness, who died in July at the age of 76.

As well as Ozzy posthumously receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award on Saturday night, the show will also conclude with a rendition of his track No More Tears, curated by his wife Sharon Osbourne.

Robbie Williams will lend his voice to the performance, which will also feature several musicians who worked with Ozzy over the years, including Adam Wakeman, Robert Trujillo, Tommy Clufetos and Zakk Wylde.

Ozzy and Sharon previously hosted the Brit Awards back in 2008, alongside their two youngest children, Kelly and Jack Osbourne.

Brit Awards committee chair Stacey Tang said: “Ozzy Osbourne has been a mighty force in modern music. Possessing an unmistakable voice and unique presence, he reshaped the sound and spirit of rock, inspiring generations of artists who followed.

“This Lifetime Achievement Award recognises a remarkable legacy built on originality and enduring influence, that continues to connect with fans worldwide.”

This year’s Brits will also feature performances from British stars like Harry Styles, Raye, Olivia Dean and Wolf Alice, as well as international talent including Rosalía, Alex Warren and Sombr.

Ejae, Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami – better known as the singing voices of KPop Demon Hunters’ Huntr/x – have also pre-recorded a performance as part of the night’s proceedings, with Mark Ronson set to perform a medley to celebrate his Outstanding Contribution win.

Olivia Dean and Lola Young are going into this year’s Brits with the most nominations, with Jacob Alon already unveiled as the latest recipient of the Critics’ Choice Award and PinkPantheress making pop history with her Producer Of The Year win.

Noel Gallagher is also set to be honoured with the Songwriter Of The Year title in a controversial move given he’s not actually released any new music in the last 12 months.

The 2026 Brit Awards will air live on Saturday 28 February at 8.15pm on ITV1.
