Tonight, the liberals told Trump they'd pass a law to stop cross-border smuggling, but in fact,
00:01:46.540
it's a law to spy on you and me. It's June 5th, and this is the Ezra Levant Show.
00:01:57.920
I think the Mark Carney government will reintroduce Trudeau's Bill C-63. You'll know that as the
00:02:12.900
Online Harms Act. That was the censorship law that was on its way to becoming law, at least. It was
00:02:19.000
introduced in the House of Commons, but then Trudeau prorogued Parliament when he was challenged by
00:02:23.980
Christia Freeland, and that automatically canceled all unpassed legislation. So we were saved by the
00:02:30.520
bell. But the bill can simply be reintroduced, and as it happened, Stephen Gilbeau, the extremist,
00:02:37.200
who first started to draft this bill years ago when he was Trudeau's Heritage Minister, well,
00:02:42.320
he's back in cabinet as the Heritage Minister again. I mean, do you think he has had a change of heart
00:02:48.200
about censorship, or do you think he's even worse? And add to that Mark Carney's extreme language
00:02:54.700
during the campaign about censoring US-based social media platforms. He means Twitter and X mainly,
00:03:02.040
but also others like Facebook. If people say mean things, not illegal things, but mean things,
00:03:11.820
Large American online platforms have become seas of racism, misogyny, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia,
00:03:18.980
and hate in all its forms. And they're being used by criminals to harm our children.
00:03:30.160
Those things he listed there, they are not illegal or criminal. They're just offensive, I guess,
00:03:36.320
and everyone has a different taste. So he wants to regulate political speech by basically giving
00:03:41.400
a heckler's veto to anyone who claims their feelings are hurt. They get to silence someone. It's not
00:03:47.740
based on any criminality. What he just said there was as extreme as anything that Justin Trudeau ever
00:03:54.960
did. So stand by for that. I'm sure it'll come back, C-63, especially now that Elon Musk is flexing
00:04:02.760
his free speech muscles. But there are other ways for the liberals to silence Canadians and to spy on
00:04:08.740
Canadians and to basically to do all of what they did to the truckers, to punish us, to do terrible
00:04:14.920
things without even having a court order in their power. I'm talking about when the liberals simply
00:04:20.880
ordered banks to freeze and seize bank accounts of their political enemies hundreds of times.
00:04:27.640
No trial, no arrest, no court order, no hearing, no procedure, no appeal, just some political aid
00:04:34.200
made an enemies list. And next thing you know, you're at the grocery store or gas station and
00:04:40.780
your bank card isn't working because your husband protested against the liberals too much. That's not
00:04:46.620
even the Online Harms Act. That's what the liberals did without any special laws three years ago.
00:04:52.300
Anyways, Mark Carney has started introducing bills. The very first bill of a new parliament is a
00:04:59.100
symbolic one. That's the tradition. So that was Bill C-1. Bill C-2 is always the first substantive
00:05:06.880
bill, the meaningful bill. And what is the first thing, the most important thing that Mark Carney
00:05:12.780
wanted to get done? He just introduced C-2 this week. Well, it's a doozy. Here's a copy of the front of
00:05:18.680
the bill. It's called an act respecting certain measures relating to the security of the border
00:05:25.020
between Canada and the United States and respecting other related security measures. Well, that sounds
00:05:31.300
pretty good. I mean, it's embarrassing that Canada had to be shamed into border security by a foreign
00:05:37.360
leader complaining about the drugs and terrorists just walking across the border. But that's where we
00:05:42.260
are, I guess. But let me ask you a question and give me an answer from your gut. Do you think
00:05:47.480
the liberals would actually make a law that secures the borders and stops terrorists and drugs? Or
00:05:52.500
do you think they would actually plant little surprises buried in the 140 pages of Dan's legalese
00:05:59.060
in this bill that actually undermine our freedom and safety, not make us safer or freer? I mean,
00:06:04.720
based on what you know about the moral character of our government, which of those two paths do you
00:06:10.660
think they chose? It's a huge bill that tries to do so much, which is why it's perfect for burying
00:06:17.300
little surprises in it. The super short summary of it itself is five pages long. Some of it makes
00:06:25.360
sense on the face of it, just like C-63. They talked about stopping revenge pornography and child
00:06:30.620
pornography. So you'd say, oh, that's a good idea. But then they hid the political censorship. This bill
00:06:35.900
does the same thing. Let me read something that sounds on the face of it like not a bad idea.
00:06:41.460
This is from the short summary at the beginning of the law.
00:06:44.560
Part one amends the Customs Act to provide the Canada Border Services Agency with facilities free
00:06:50.280
of charge for carrying out any purpose related to the administration or enforcement of that act
00:06:56.160
and other acts of parliament and to provide officers of that agency with access at certain locations to
00:07:02.320
goods destined for export. It also includes transitional provisions. So that's all about
00:07:08.120
stopping the cars that are being stolen every day in big cities and then shipped off to Africa and the
00:07:14.180
Middle East. Okay, so you're letting border services agencies into export terminals. Sounds like a good
00:07:20.200
idea. It's sort of actually crazy that that isn't the case now. So searching for things at the border
00:07:25.980
makes sense. Here's part two. There's 14 parts. I'm not going to read all of them. Don't worry.
00:07:31.060
I'm just showing you how they're hiding horrendous things in parts of a bill that are good.
00:07:38.420
Part two amends the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act to create a new temporary accelerated
00:07:44.100
scheduling pathway that allows the Minister of Health to add precursor chemicals to Schedule 5 of
00:07:49.380
that act. It also makes related amendments to the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, police enforcement
00:07:55.060
regulations, and precursor control regulations. You can probably guess what that means.
00:08:01.060
It makes sense to me basically stopping the ingredients for illegal drugs, not just the
00:08:07.580
ingredients themselves. Okay, that sounds pretty good. But let me skip ahead to part four, though.
00:08:14.920
It amends the Canada Post Corporation Act to permit the demand, seizure, detention, or retention of
00:08:24.520
anything in the course of post. Only in accordance with an act of parliament. It also amends that act to expand
00:08:31.760
the Canada Post Corporation's authority to open mail in circumstances to include the authority to open
00:08:39.880
letters. Okay, hang on. What again? This is a border bill. I was told this was the bill Donald Trump demanded.
00:08:46.980
Does that just mean what I think it means? The government can just open up your mail without a search
00:08:53.540
warrant now? Why? Why yes. Let's go to the full text of the bill. It's in a strange order. It's written
00:08:59.920
sort of in, not in what I would think would be a logical order, but I want to read it to you.
00:09:05.980
Um, you can see for yourself. The first thing they say is you can only open someone's mail by following
00:09:13.380
these rules. So at least they're saying not everyone can open all mail all the time. They say
00:09:18.880
nothing in the course of post, that's a fancy way of saying something moving through Canada Post,
00:09:24.340
is subject to demand, seizure, detention, or retention, except in accordance with an act of
00:09:28.680
parliament. Okay, thanks very little. So you're saying only parliament can snoop in our mail.
00:09:32.440
Then they say you have to tell Canada Post, if you're a cop, that you took mail from them.
00:09:37.960
You got to let them know within 60 days that you just stole it. Let me read.
00:09:43.460
If mail is demanded, seized, detained, or retained, or in accordance with an act of parliament,
00:09:49.200
other than the act or the Canadian Security Intelligence Service Act, notice of the demand,
00:09:55.940
seizure, detention, or retention, must be given in writing to the corporation within 60 days
00:10:01.640
after the demand, seizure, detention, or retention. Unless the mail has before the end of the period
00:10:09.740
been delivered to the addressee of the mail or returned to the corporation. So they're saying if you're
00:10:16.900
a cop and you take something from the mail, you've got 60 days before you have to let Canada Post know
00:10:23.340
you just took it out of the mail, but you don't even have to let them know if you put it back in the mail
00:10:28.340
and it goes to its final destination. So what's that going to do with the border again?
00:10:34.220
I'll just read a little bit more. They say you cannot get in trouble for opening someone's mail
00:10:39.900
this way. You just can't. Subject to section 41.1, His Majesty and Right of Canada, any servant or agent
00:10:47.940
or mandatory of someone who's mandated of the Majesty and the corporation are not liable to any person for
00:10:55.900
any claim arising from a demand, seizure, detention, etc. So they're saying, hey guys, a lot of bad
00:11:02.780
things are going to happen and you can't do anything about it. You cannot sue us for rifling through your
00:11:08.420
mail. Then they change the burden of proof. Now, of course, police can open mail right now with a court
00:11:13.600
order. They can go into your house with a court order. It's called a search warrant. But they change
00:11:19.880
the burden of proof to having reasonable grounds to suspect. So they let an ordinary cop do it if the
00:11:27.840
cop says, well, you know, I'm a pretty reasonable guy and I think there's something fishy going on. So
00:11:32.940
no search warrant, no judge, no two sides of the story in court. Just, are you reasonably worried?
00:11:41.520
Let me read that for you. The corporation may open any mail if it has reasonable grounds to suspect.
00:11:49.460
And then it cuts that off because that was just the wording that was changed. You can see it now
00:11:54.500
does not require a search warrant, only, you know, reasonable suspicion. Just Chrystia Freeland
00:11:59.600
maybe phoning up some cop to seize the mail of some enemy the way she sees the bank accounts of the
00:12:07.660
truckers. They learn nothing from that. Actually, they did learn. They learned they can get away with
00:12:13.280
it. And who is Mark Carney's new right-hand man in all this? His new principal secretary, but David
00:12:19.100
Lamedi, the crooked former justice minister who approved of the illegal search and seizures of
00:12:25.040
the truckers. So whose mail will be opened? Again, what's it got to do with borders? A terrorist mail?
00:12:32.760
A drug dealer's mail? But like I say, that can be done right now with a search warrant. How about
00:12:38.460
my mail? How about the mail of conservative opposition MPs? How about donors to the conservative
00:12:46.500
party? Can their mail be opened? How about mail that's legally privileged? So when a lawyer writes
00:12:54.440
something confidential to a client about a court case, who's in charge of this? Why, the same crooks who
00:13:01.080
were in charge of the greatest civil liberties bonfire in Canadian history during the pandemic?
00:13:06.100
They want to search and seize your mail now because they're suspicious of you. They have
00:13:10.080
reasonable grounds to suspect you're up to something. And of course, they are suspicious of
00:13:14.180
you because you are suspicious of them. Now, if you would like them, if you would just like them,
00:13:20.240
then they would like you too. It's basically an enemies list they have. It's got nothing to do with
00:13:26.060
border security. What was the word border in any of that? And everything to do with going after
00:13:30.340
their enemies. But then look at this again. This is from the summary of the line here in the front
00:13:35.080
again. Part 11 amends the Proceeds of Crime, Money Laundering, and Terrorist Financing Act to
00:13:42.920
prohibit certain entities from accepting cash deposits from third parties and certain persons or
00:13:48.580
entities from accepting cash payments, donations, or deposits of $10,000 or more. It also makes a related
00:13:55.320
amendment to the proceeds of crime and terrorism financing administrative monetary penalties
00:14:01.480
regulations. That's a mouthful, but let me translate. You can't use cash anymore if it's more than 10
00:14:10.100
grand. Even if it's totally legitimate. Here, let's go to the text. Let's read it for yourself.
00:14:16.000
Look at the bill yourself. Section 136. The act is amended by adding the following after Section
00:14:21.780
77.4. Offense. Cash payments, donations, or deposits of $10,000 or more. Every person or entity,
00:14:33.040
that could mean a company, could mean a church, that is engaged in a business, a profession,
00:14:38.940
or the solicitation of charitable financial donations from the public, commits an offense
00:14:45.240
if the person or entity accepts a cash payment, donation, or deposit of $10,000 or more in a single
00:14:53.240
transaction or in a prescribed series of related transactions that total $10,000 or more. Now,
00:14:59.460
I've never had $10,000 cash in my pocket, but I could imagine moments when that could happen to
00:15:06.080
very ordinary people. I mean, not everyone uses credit cards, whether people playing bingo,
00:15:11.880
for example, or a laundromat that gets paid in bills and coins or restaurants or a bar. I'm just
00:15:19.340
picking examples. You think of your own. There's a car wash I go to pay cash. I mean, a church that
00:15:26.180
passes a donation plate. There are many, there are endless, completely legitimate reasons to have
00:15:32.400
$10,000 on you. And by the way, those are 10,000 Canadian mini dollars. It doesn't go as far as it
00:15:38.420
used to go. It's not illegal to have $10,000, but now it will be, even if it's totally legit. You
00:15:47.860
can't pay for things like that. Sorry, this is a border control law. Who says this is, who says it's
00:15:56.960
wrong to use cash? And on what basis do they regulate you? They won't regulate the border,
00:16:02.360
but they're coming for you. If you use $10,000 in cash. If you're a drug dealer, I get it. If you're
00:16:09.100
a terrorist, I get it. But that's not what the proposed law says, is it? It says every person
00:16:15.420
and it even lists businesses, professions, charities. How on earth is that necessary? How on earth
00:16:22.080
is that related to the supposed purpose of this bill? Donald Trump didn't say, hey, crack down on
00:16:28.020
Christian churches and their donation place. Donald Trump said, fix your border. And Mark Carney said,
00:16:34.260
okay, fix your border. I hear open people's mail and take their money if they use cash.
00:16:41.580
Look, it's obvious what this is. This is a war on cash. It's a way to scare people to move off cash
00:16:48.380
and use only credit cards and other online traceable forms of money. So the government can
00:16:54.380
look at everything you do, everyone you pay, every place you go. If you can see what people pay for,
00:17:01.560
you can see where they go and who they deal with, what everyone does with their money. Nothing to do
00:17:06.840
with immigration or border security or drugs. Again, you can already seize the proceeds of crime right
00:17:12.200
now. This is to get people off cash. And eventually I predict onto some sort of traceable
00:17:18.140
government central bank digital currency, which is smart money, which means they can turn it off
00:17:25.340
if you're spending it in a way they don't like. You know, they want to do that, especially a central
00:17:31.400
banker like Mark Carney. You know, he wants to get central bank digital currency going. And look at
00:17:37.180
this from the summary of the bill. Let's go to part 14.
00:17:40.380
Part 14 amends various acts to modernize certain provisions, respecting the timely gathering and
00:17:47.400
production of data and information during an investigation. It, among other things,
00:17:52.380
amends the criminal code to, among other things, facilitate access to basic information that will
00:17:58.220
assist the investigation of federal offenses through an information demand or a judicial production
00:18:04.540
order to persons who provide services to the public. Clarify the response time for
00:18:10.360
production orders and the ability of peace officers and public officers to receive an act on certain
00:18:15.200
information that is voluntarily provided to them and on certain information that is publicly available
00:18:20.880
and specify certain circumstances in which peace officers and public officers may obtain evidence,
00:18:28.840
including subscriber information in exigent circumstances. I'll just read a little more.
00:18:36.000
You know, provide and clarify authorities by which computer data may be examined.
00:18:42.220
You're sorry, what's this got to do with the border again?
00:18:45.520
You know, Canada's leading internet privacy expert, Professor Michael Geist of University of Ottawa,
00:18:51.000
he wrote about this actually in the Globe and Mail just today.
00:18:56.140
And he thinks it's an atrocious, it's like a poison pill.
00:18:59.880
He says, alarming privacy threats are buried in the liberal border bill.
00:19:07.520
A border security bill tabled by the liberal government this week will have wide reach beyond
00:19:11.780
the 49th parallel buried in the massive bill of provisions to allow law enforcement
00:19:16.200
to access information about internet subscribers without a warrant.
00:19:24.400
Show the government. No search warrant necessary.
00:19:29.100
The Strong Borders Act seeks to circumvent these decisions by creating a new information demand power
00:19:36.060
for law enforcement that does not require court oversight.
00:19:39.480
The new power targets information about a subscriber, such as whether they use a particular internet service
00:19:45.720
and if the provider has data about their usage.
00:19:48.960
The provider may also be required to disclose where and when the service was used,
00:19:53.300
as well as information about any other services the subscriber used to communicate.
00:19:58.460
This is akin to law enforcement approaching a bank to demand if a particular person is a client
00:20:04.660
and whether there is information about their account transactions
00:20:07.540
in which branches were used by stopping short of asking for the actual account information.
00:20:15.100
He says, there are obvious privacy implications here that are certain to result in a legal challenge
00:20:25.260
I mean, the Emergencies Act was illegal and unconstitutional.
00:20:29.780
Now, again, if this was targeting after bad guys and a court looked at the evidence and said,
00:20:34.360
yeah, oh, you got Osama bin Laden's, you know, successor on the run.
00:20:43.680
Well, actually, this government probably would come to his defense.
00:20:57.500
I bet those Toronto cops, you know, those ones who do the podcast saying how the Hamas attack
00:21:09.100
Here's the official wording from the bill itself about what a cop can get.
00:21:12.920
After a phone call from, say, Chrystia Freeland, I mean, no need for a judge here.
00:21:18.800
Subscriber information means in relation to any client of a person who provides services
00:21:25.340
to the public or any subscriber to the services of such a person, A, information that subscriber
00:21:32.340
or client provided to the person in order to receive the services, including their name,
00:21:38.160
pseudonym, address, telephone number, and email address.
00:21:43.200
Identifiers assigned to the subscriber or client by the person, including account numbers,
00:21:48.640
and information relating to the services provided to the subscriber or client, including the
00:21:52.960
types of services provided, the period during which the services were provided, and information
00:21:58.080
that identifies the devices, equipment, or things used by the subscriber or client in relation
00:22:06.340
And then there's some French version on the other side.
00:22:09.280
But here's the first part of what a cop can get.
00:22:12.400
So I just listed what they said is the information.
00:22:16.800
A peace officer or public officer may make a demand in Form 5.0011 to a person who provides
00:22:23.820
services to the public requiring a person to provide in the form, manner, and time specified
00:22:31.920
A, whether the person provides or has provided services to any subscriber or client, order
00:22:42.300
But basically, you're saying, here's everything we know about our customer, his phone number,
00:22:47.460
his email address, his real name, his fake online name.
00:22:56.740
So just to be clear, they're passing this in the name of border security, in the name
00:23:04.240
But they literally jammed this into the end, part 14 of a 14-part bill.
00:23:08.940
And it's got nothing to do with borders or terrorism or drugs.
00:23:12.740
And it has everything to do with spying on you.
00:23:20.420
They spied on millions of Canadians during COVID.
00:23:24.120
And they weaponized that during the trucker convoy.
00:23:52.060
There's a few reasons for that, including I have an exciting interview for tomorrow that
00:23:58.120
But my dear friend, Sheila Gunn-Reed, our chief reporter, went to London for the latest
00:24:09.260
Paparazzi have complained that Tommy is taking photos of them.
00:24:14.840
Here's Sheila's report from the streets of London.
00:24:20.160
Sheila Gunn-Reed for Rebel News all the way from Canada in rainy London, England.
00:24:25.640
This morning, I sat down with citizen journalist and freedom fighter Tommy Robinson
00:24:30.660
over breakfast, possibly his last free meal outside of prison walls, depending on how today's
00:24:41.820
I'll tell you more about that in another video.
00:24:43.880
But Tommy is facing new criminal harassment charges for confronting two journalists who
00:24:49.900
photographed his children while he was on a private family holiday in Cyprus.
00:24:58.640
Tommy's just come off a stretch in jail for civil contempt because he published a documentary
00:25:04.800
And now, with a real chance of being remanded into custody again, he took a few minutes to
00:25:17.160
It's better cafe than Tim Hortons for you Canadians.
00:25:27.220
Give us a rundown of exactly what brings you back to court today.
00:25:31.520
Brings me back to court because journalists tracked down where I was with my children and
00:25:36.280
They came, which, look, they photographed us in the hotel, but my problem was, for public
00:25:42.440
interest, why did they put pictures of my innocent family members when they're fully
00:25:45.240
aware there's threats of danger and death threats against them?
00:25:52.060
They basically framed me as the person behind the riots when there's no evidence of that.
00:25:56.120
In fact, all the evidence is the total opposite.
00:25:58.240
I wasn't even in the country when the riots started.
00:26:00.200
I was calling for calm and peace the whole time.
00:26:01.900
But then they run a headline that basically told the world that I was instigating and
00:26:05.860
Now, this happened at the same time that Keir Starmer's government, the Labour government,
00:26:09.200
who wanted to deflect any of the public anger that's against them for their policy failures
00:26:13.920
in this country, they wanted to deflect it and blame it on me and blame it on ideology
00:26:18.800
Now, since then, so Keir Starmer's government says it was far right.
00:26:21.940
The Daily Mail then put me as a front page blaming me.
00:26:24.440
Since then, there's been in-depth investigations and studies by the police.
00:26:27.460
There was no link to far right, no link to me, no links to anything.
00:26:32.300
And they're angry because refugees and migrants have been put into hotels, for example.
00:26:37.720
They never spoke about why people were rioting.
00:26:40.380
In Hull, which is a city where people rioted, a migrant left the hotel and committed an act
00:26:44.260
of jihad and stabbed a British pensioner to death.
00:26:47.320
In Tamworth, a migrant left the hotel, his name was Mohammed, and he raped a woman who
00:26:51.480
In Great Yarmouth, a migrant left the hotel and raped a woman.
00:26:54.080
Across this country, migrants have been housed in hotels and have raped English women.
00:26:58.040
So when this boiling point come after three young children were butchered to death,
00:27:00.980
when that comes, people come out in the streets with anger.
00:27:03.980
But rather than address why they're angry, I got blamed, I got scapegoated.
00:27:07.060
That resulted in death threats against my family.
00:27:10.960
My mum and dad had to relocate from their home.
00:27:14.880
And the media have never had it turned on them.
00:27:19.680
So when they've done this to me, the next day, I started doing my homework on them.
00:27:23.400
And I contacted them and messaged them saying, you need to answer questions of why you've
00:27:28.320
They could have wrote the article without giving the location of where we were and without
00:27:33.040
photographing innocent people, like family members.
00:27:35.780
But they purposely, their motive was to cause me maximum disruption, maximum problems, maximum
00:27:47.580
So I then got pictures of them and what I asked them was, is it okay for me to come
00:27:51.680
and ask you questions when you're with your family?
00:27:59.560
You know I know where you are because I found out within 24 hours where all three of them
00:28:03.540
I said, I've got questions to ask you on camera.
00:28:11.640
Then I'm prosecuted when I was in jail, questioned when I was in jail.
00:28:15.280
We get a result to say, I'm going to be freed from jail.
00:28:17.440
And the very next day, the police come in and issue me this court date.
00:28:20.920
The next day, it's like, it's like, it's so blatant for everyone to watch.
00:28:24.760
Now, what I, what I believe they'll do today is try and gag me, which is what this is about.
00:28:29.280
This case may take now to 2027 from what I'm being told.
00:28:34.520
Be gagged for two years and gagged because I'm glad you're here.
00:28:41.920
There's citizen journalists that come from everywhere.
00:28:49.600
What the mainstream media narrative will be today and the headlines that will go everywhere
00:29:02.340
This is the second time they've done that on a holiday.
00:29:04.740
They've come into my hotel twice and took pictures of my family on a holiday.
00:29:09.320
They have followed extremists and live streamed the Daily Mail, the same paper, live streamed
00:29:17.280
Yet they're saying that I've caused them fear of violence.
00:29:22.240
That I've caused them violence by saying I'm going to question you with a camera.
00:29:26.600
And that the sentence for this is 10 years in prison.
00:29:35.860
It's there's there's not been since I started speaking out in 2009.
00:29:40.720
I have not had one day where I haven't faced court prosecution.
00:29:43.880
So I thought when I was coming out of prison this time.
00:29:46.160
I thought, right, I'm going to get out of here.
00:29:47.680
And for the first time, I'm going to have no case.
00:29:49.620
But I told all the I told the prison officers, I guarantee you they come and get me again.
00:30:02.900
And I thought they'd trump up a charge in order to remand me.
00:30:08.580
They might say you're remanded and put me straight in prison.
00:30:16.100
So what was important for me was that the public see, just like they saw with the film Silence.
00:30:20.200
So right now, pinned on my X count and on my I've been given YouTube back.
00:30:23.600
So Tommy Robinson online, subscribe and like share.
00:30:32.380
OK, so and we got a film out which details to the public.
00:30:39.140
Have I caused them fear or have they caused my family fear?
00:30:41.560
The problem is, it's like 2025 and I can't ask a journalist a question.
00:30:45.720
They're allowed to act as a propaganda arm for the establishment and government.
00:30:49.780
Harass people, persecute them, target them, humiliate them, lie about them, slander them.
00:30:54.260
And the minute you turn the camera on them, well, you're going to jail.
00:31:08.260
So I don't say anything I caused them fear, fear of violence.
00:31:15.180
What do you think my daughter was like when she was 13 years old in the swimming pool and
00:31:18.560
men were running around asking for me, taking pictures?
00:31:22.080
Because due to this article that they put out, given our location, Muslims were making videos
00:31:35.440
They have controlled the media for as long as any of us have lived, including our parents.
00:31:40.180
And they have been able to tell you how to think about who and about who.
00:31:50.820
So even now in this, I'll just say, watch my film.
00:31:56.020
Because the monopoly that they have, they don't have anymore.
00:31:58.120
Because luckily we can do interviews like this.
00:31:59.820
And luckily people can find us on X, thanks to Elon Musk, and find us on YouTube and find
00:32:04.940
One last question before we head down to the courthouse.
00:32:11.820
I promised myself when I was in jail that when I come out, I'm going to slow my life
00:32:15.280
down and I'm going to spend time with my family.
00:32:17.400
But because I come out and I knew I had seven days until I was in court, I believe, that's
00:32:24.520
But I think their motives for these cases are always to tie me up and silence me.
00:32:31.340
So I didn't have a choice, but I've worked non-stop for seven days.
00:32:37.280
I'm booking clear time in with them from next week.
00:32:39.700
I've just had so much to do, which seems mad because I've been sat in a room for seven
00:32:43.180
And to be honest, I come out after seven months in a room and I felt weird.
00:32:53.760
Like, I just can't believe that I'm the mum being prosecuted.
00:33:04.240
And the process is the punishment for everybody.
00:33:15.140
Trial probably going up to 50, 60, 70,000 pounds.
00:33:18.260
And then when you win, because remember, you come for the anti-Semitism rally, yeah?
00:33:21.480
We come here last time and I won the court case.
00:33:33.680
But the mainstream media, we'll all run with the same narrative and the same headline.
00:33:36.700
And they'll pump it across the country that I've...
00:33:38.640
And if you read the headline, you'll think I've terrorized these two men.
00:33:42.120
I've terrorized them, threatened them, scared them, scared their families.
00:33:45.960
Made it very clear to them that I'm not going to do the things that they've done.
00:33:52.620
I flew 18 hours one way to be here in London because we can't trust the media in that courtroom behind me.
00:34:00.580
They've already picked a side and they want Tommy Robinson back in a cell.

00:34:37.720
B. Wind says, he won't want sympathy, but he gets it from me.
00:34:41.680
He looks shaken after his time in prison, but he's a hero for the normal, hardworking British man.
00:34:47.880
I really think he helped move a lot of issues forward.
00:34:52.940
During that time, a lot of things moved because he was in prison.
00:34:57.800
Next letter, his previous arrest on the basis that he was suspected of terrorist activities is a ridiculous nonsense and a deliberate abuse.
00:35:06.860
Well, actually, I know a little bit about that.
00:35:09.340
He's being charged under the Terrorism Act, but not for terrorism.
00:35:13.620
For refusing to give the password on his cell phone to the police.
00:35:19.080
He just, they stopped him under the Terrorism Act.
00:35:26.660
So it's not even terrorism he's been charged with.
00:35:29.680
Ian Blake says, the Daily Mail should be in court, not Tommy Robinson.
00:35:34.060
Yeah, it's sort of incredible that the most rabid paparazzi in the world, like you've got to acknowledge that the paparazzi in London are the most aggressive in the world.
00:35:42.720
It's plausible to say they killed Princess Diana.
00:35:46.380
And someone takes a photo of them and they cry all the way to mama and ask the person who took a photo of them to be jail.
00:35:56.660
Until tomorrow, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters, to you at home, good night.
