Centrepoint drops Sharon Osbourne after Tommy Robinson post

  • This decision follows Osbourne's public endorsement on Instagram of a rally organised by right-wing activist Tommy Robinson.
  • Centrepoint stated that such 'political activity' runs counter to its values of supporting young people regardless of their background, religion, or ethnicity.
  • Osbourne had previously supported Centrepoint through an Omaze campaign, but the charity clarified she was not an official ambassador.
  • The 'Unite the Kingdom' rally, organised by Robinson (Stephen Yaxley-Lennon), is scheduled to take place in London on May 16.
