R3 Soundystem's throwing a protest rave against Donald Trump this week

Donald Trump is visiting London tomorrow for a discussion with Boris Johnson over NATO and R3 Soundsystem is holding a public rave in protest.

The ‘DANCE MUSIC AGAINST TRUMP/BORIS/FARAGE’ protest will be held in Trafalgar Square on December 3 at 6pm.

Confirmed DJs so far include Seth Troxler, Jamie xx, Homobloc, Midland, HAAi, A Guy Called Gerald, Norman Jay, 808 State, SHYGIRL, Mike Dunn, and Shanti Celeste, with more being added regularly.

“Kick out the Tories, Impeach Trump & Reject Farage!” is in the description of the group’s GoFundMe page which helps to fund the protests.

This will mark R3 Soundsystem's fifth protest since the Stop Trump event in July 2018. London’s last state visit saw the US President tweet London Mayor Sadiq Khan, calling him a “stone cold loser” and saying he is doing a “terrible job”.

The group’s name ‘R3’ stands for: RESIST (the right-wing shift in British politics), REJECT (kick out the Tories, impeach Trump and reject Farage), REVOLT (come together against the populist hijack of British politics).
