Turning Point UK (TPUK) is the British offshoot of the influential American far-right group Turning Point USA. 

TPUK launched in 2019 with some fanfare and much derision. The group was intended to emulate the success of its American parent group in mobilising young conservatives on college campuses, but failed to create any organic presence in universities here.

However, following the addition of COO Nick Tenconi (now UKIP leader) to the group, it began to reinvent itself as a street protest organisation, and was a visible presence in the demonstrations against drag queen storytelling sessions in 2022 and 2023. A report by Red Flare in 2024 documented the connections between TPUK and football hooligan groups like Pie and Mash Squad and the Democratic Football Lads Alliance. At a public demonstration in January 2025, Tenconi called for the detention and deportation of “all Islamists” and “all migrants who are here to colonise”.

In September 2025, the leader of Turning Point USA, Charlie Kirk, was assassinated. Tenconi spoke at a London vigil held shortly after his death, where announced that “war has now been declared”.

With Tenconi turning his attention to UKIP, the group had somewhat stagnated, although a new cohort of younger activists have attempted to return the organisation to its roots, most notably Thomas Moffit (AKA Young Bob), who campaigned on behalf of TPUK throughout the summer and autumn of 2025 at London university campuses. However, Moffit was suspended from his position after HOPE not hate exposed his disparaging comments about TPUK and Tenconi in December.
