Phxt Seventeen-year-old British conservative activist Young Bob has launched the first official Turning Point UK “Prove Me Wrong” stand in central London today, marking a significant milestone for the movement’s expansion. Supporters say they are excited to see Charlie Kirk’s vision continuing to inspire young conservatives across the Atlantic.
LONDON, UK — Seventeen-year-old British conservative activist Young Bob made headlines today after setting up the first official Turning Point UK “Prove Me Wrong” stand outside University College London (UCL). The event marks a major milestone for the movement’s growing footprint in Britain and a symbolic continuation of Charlie Kirk’s American conservative legacy.
Seated at a small table draped with a blue banner reading “The West Needs Conservatism – Prove Me Wrong,” the young campaigner invited passersby to engage in open debate about conservative values, free speech, and the future of Western politics. The setup mirrors Turning Point USA’s popular “Change My Mind”-style activism, designed to spark discussion rather than division.
Announcing the launch on X (formerly Twitter), Young Bob wrote:
“I am thrilled to announce the first official Turning Point UK ‘Prove Me Wrong’ stand is now set up and open outside UCL! I hope Charlie would be proud of what we are doing to continue his legacy.”
Supporters across social media applauded the move, describing it as a refreshing show of youthful leadership and a sign that Charlie Kirk’s message of faith, freedom, and individual responsibility continues to resonate “across the pond.”
Founded in the U.S. in 2012, Turning Point USA has inspired a global network of young conservatives through its emphasis on free markets, limited government, and open dialogue on university campuses. Its UK branch has adopted a similar mission — encouraging students to challenge prevailing political narratives through reasoned debate.
The London stand marks what many see as the start of a new wave of conservative student activism in the UK. For Young Bob and his supporters, it’s not just about politics — it’s about proving that open discussion and conservative ideas still have a place in Britain’s academic and cultural conversation.
