Summary

Transcript

00:00:00.040 Hello, my friends. I'm back in Canada after spending a weekend in the United Kingdom filming different protests against migrant hotels.
00:00:08.000 It's a big thing over there. The government takes over an entire hotel, shuts down the tourism part of it, and just turns it into an urban refugee camp.
00:00:17.260 And people have had enough because a lot of these refugee camps are just filled with young men.
00:00:22.020 And unfortunately, some of these young men have engaged in rape in the local community.
00:00:26.580 I'll have all that for you and more. But first, let me invite you to become a subscriber to Rebel News Plus.
00:00:31.620 You've absolutely got to do that for today's show. It's basically the video version of this podcast.
00:00:36.780 And for last night's episode and today's episode, it's all about the sights and the sounds, too, but the sights.
00:00:43.520 I mean, sure, you'll be able to figure it out a bit if you don't have the video, but I want you to see with your own eyes what was going on this weekend in the UK.
00:00:56.580 Tonight, the Battle of Epping Forest. It's July 29th, and this is the Ezra LeVant Show.
00:01:11.680 You're fighting for freedom. Shame on you, you censorious bug.
00:01:26.580 Well, hi, everybody. I'm back in Canada. I was in the United Kingdom over the weekend, and something big has changed over there.
00:01:33.300 You know, I've been covering the issues of censorship and free speech and mass immigration and Islamification and terrorism.
00:01:40.540 These are all bundled together over there. I've been covering them pretty much for a decade.
00:01:44.760 Tommy Robinson was my window into this world, but something has changed.
00:01:48.980 Until very recently, it's been an issue for activists, for politically tuned-in people, for bloggers and pundits, but severely normal people have really not gotten involved.
00:02:00.040 They've been following it. They've been very interested in it, but they've also been sort of afraid about taking a stance, a public stance,
00:02:07.200 on something that could label them far-right, as they say in the UK, something that could get them deplatformed.
00:02:13.480 Well, as you may have seen last night in those first shows, first visits I did, and tonight,
00:02:20.320 I think the turning point is that normal mums, mums and grandmas, are coming out to these protests.
00:02:27.760 People who tell me it's the first time in their life they've gone to a protest.
00:02:31.920 On the other hand, the Antifa protesters, the counter-protesters, the professional protesters,
00:02:38.460 well, they just don't seem to have the impact anymore. Oh, they're deploying, but it's so obvious that they're just reading cue cards written for them by some NGO.
00:02:47.780 So tonight, I give you this interesting story from a town of Epping, where mums and dads have just had it,
00:02:55.080 and they're saying no more to migrant hotels. Here's that.
00:02:58.460 Hi, Ezra Levant here. I'm standing in a little forest in a town of Epping in Essex, which is, I don't know,
00:03:06.900 about an hour and a half from central London. It really is a bedroom community.
00:03:10.340 A lot of people here go into London to work. There's a train that gets you right to the heart of the city.
00:03:15.220 But Epping itself is so lovely. Oh, my goodness. I mean, not just the green and verdant hills,
00:03:21.000 but just the little shops and the restaurants, and this forest here.
00:03:25.580 There's people walking back and forth. They go for a stroll. I saw a young woman on horseback.
00:03:31.240 You don't see that all the time. And young men, young women, women by themselves walking on this path,
00:03:37.380 because that's what happens in a high-trust society. Nearby, there's primary schools and middle schools.
00:03:43.660 And then the government decided they were going to book an entire hotel, which was, of course,
00:03:49.540 part of the lifeblood of the community, for people visiting Epping, for tourists,
00:03:53.980 for people in Epping to go out for a nice Sunday roast or whatever they do.
00:03:58.900 The government said, no, we have better plans for that hotel.
00:04:01.600 We're going to buy out that entire hotel and make it an urban refugee camp for military-aged men
00:04:09.380 who have come over in dinghies, shredding their documentation,
00:04:13.700 making it impossible to do any sort of background check on these folks.
00:04:17.100 Their very first act in the United Kingdom to break the law.
00:04:19.820 And they're put up in this luxurious hotel, and there's all these men.
00:04:25.000 And I was just talking to someone, and people here are shy,
00:04:27.760 although some of them are overcoming their shyness in recent days, I can tell you.
00:04:31.860 And these men, they, officially, they're not really allowed to do anything.
00:04:38.920 They're not allowed to work.
00:04:39.980 But he says a lot of them actually go into London and work Deliveroo, which is like Uber Eats here.
00:04:45.400 So they work under the table, and I suppose that's the best case of what they're doing.
00:04:50.740 By the way, they get a payment.
00:04:52.580 They get free hotel, free food.
00:04:54.740 They get a weekly payment of cash.
00:04:56.860 And then they work illegally for these large tech companies like Deliveroo.
00:05:01.660 So they've just got the whole thing wired, don't they?
00:05:04.780 Obviously, no indigenous Brit could possibly compete, because everyone in the UK actually has to work for a living.
00:05:12.240 These migrants hop on a dinghy.
00:05:14.140 They're escorted over the English Channel by the Royal Navy.
00:05:17.120 They're not stopped.
00:05:18.220 The second mightiest navy in the world does not even try to stop these boats.
00:05:22.000 Then they're put in this little paradise called Epping,
00:05:25.140 which, frankly, is a bit of a white flight community from other areas that have been taken over by mass immigration.
00:05:30.860 And this lovely little forest setting, to me, is the symbol of the whole thing.
00:05:37.000 To be able to walk with confidence and without shyness or danger through a little forest,
00:05:43.980 as has been done in Epping for centuries,
00:05:48.360 because they didn't need to have bars on their windows,
00:05:52.140 because there was a moat around the whole country to keep people out.
00:05:55.060 But when you allow anyone into the country, without vetting them, without stopping them,
00:06:01.440 and if you reward their illegal activity by giving them free room and board,
00:06:05.820 and then letting them work under the table for Deliveroo,
00:06:08.760 you've allowed people in who take advantage of the high-trust society.
00:06:13.680 And so it was that someone who was in that Epping hotel,
00:06:17.400 eight days after he arrived by dinghy,
00:06:23.240 allegedly, according to police, committed a sexual assault against a 14-year-old girl.
00:06:29.560 See, the thing is, if you're a girl and can walk through here,
00:06:32.940 that's because for centuries this country was kept safe,
00:06:36.400 and there's a sense of cohesion and community responsibility,
00:06:40.360 and no one rapes each other as young girls.
00:06:42.880 I'm not saying no one, but it was one of the safest, happiest places in the world.
00:06:47.400 But when you bring in men, and it's overwhelmingly men, it's more than 90% men.
00:06:53.600 In fact, we heard that this, we were in Norwich yesterday, which is completely men, 170 men,
00:07:00.540 and they're right next to schools.
00:07:03.660 And in Norwich, we heard that these men would linger near playgrounds
00:07:08.540 and take photographs of young girls.
00:07:11.420 And the police were called, and the police said,
00:07:14.340 well, they're not technically doing anything illegal by taking pervy photos of young girls and boys.
00:07:22.000 You can see why the people here are finally getting tired of it,
00:07:26.860 and more and more are showing up to the protests.
00:07:30.260 That's why I've come to London.
00:07:31.420 I would visit London a lot, but I've been focused on Ireland lately,
00:07:35.320 because something I thought was unique was happening in Ireland,
00:07:39.440 which is ordinary people, especially moms and dads,
00:07:42.420 like not just young scrappy folks, but middle class people of all backgrounds
00:07:47.080 were saying enough is enough.
00:07:48.760 We can't believe what's being done to our country.
00:07:50.640 And I thought, well, maybe that's just an Irish thing.
00:07:52.860 Maybe it's because it's a smaller community, more cohesive,
00:07:55.100 and it's happening at such a shocking pace.
00:07:57.720 And there really is such a strong Irish culture
00:07:59.740 that when you bring people from completely alien cultures,
00:08:02.600 maybe it's so jarring.
00:08:05.020 Whereas in the UK, it's been happening over a longer course of time.
00:08:08.420 You have the massive city of London where people are sort of atomized.
00:08:11.880 They don't have that same sense of cohesion.
00:08:13.580 And maybe they don't in London,
00:08:15.080 although we were at Canary Wharf yesterday, too,
00:08:17.020 and I heard that one of the local apartments there is going to have a rally.
00:08:20.360 But when you come to Epping,
00:08:22.160 this lovely place that other than the cars,
00:08:26.960 I suppose it would be no different 100 years ago.
00:08:29.740 200 years ago.
00:08:31.260 And of course, 14-year-old girls could walk through the forest
00:08:33.720 because, of course, it was like a village common.
00:08:37.480 But now people don't dare.
00:08:39.940 We're going to go to the protests today.
00:08:41.460 We hear there's going to be a big counter-protest by professional NGOs.
00:08:46.720 I think there's one called Stand Up to Racism.
00:08:48.880 We encountered them when they were bussed in from Manchester to,
00:08:52.980 I don't know if you remember when I was in the UK to cover the by-election
00:08:55.660 in a district called Runcorn and Hellsby,
00:08:58.680 which was a district that was so strongly for the Labour Party.
00:09:03.300 I think it was regarded as the 16th strongest Labour district in all of the UK.
00:09:09.000 It flipped to the Reform UK.
00:09:11.080 It flipped all the way from the left to the right.
00:09:14.380 And I remember the literature that the Reform UK had.
00:09:18.320 It was very simple.
00:09:19.820 Freeze immigration.
00:09:21.840 Stop the boats.
00:09:22.780 And I think that's what is motivating protests like what we're going to see today, we expect.
00:09:29.080 But I think it's moved much beyond that because freeze immigration means just stop the boats.
00:09:34.220 A word I'm hearing more and more here in the UK and definitely in the United States under Donald Trump
00:09:38.520 is re-migration.
00:09:40.480 You've got 170 men there in Norwich.
00:09:43.000 I'm not sure how many are here in Epping.
00:09:44.660 People here don't want to just stop the boats.
00:09:48.380 They want to kick out these fake refugee claimants from the migrant hotels.
00:09:54.460 They want to deport them.
00:09:56.020 Other countries in Europe are doing this.
00:09:57.820 Some of them, for example, some of the Nordic countries are paying migrants to go home.
00:10:03.380 And although that sounds like you're being taken advantage of again, and yes, I think they should
00:10:07.660 be just kicked out, if you have to pay someone $5,000 or $10,000 or $20,000 to leave and never
00:10:15.340 come back, brother, it's worth it.
00:10:18.500 I mean, how much money are these folks getting every year just in free stuff, let alone you
00:10:22.820 can't put a price on the loss of security and safety?
00:10:28.080 I mean, how much would the family whose 14-year-old daughter was sexually assaulted, how much would
00:10:32.660 they have paid to get these folks out?
00:10:35.140 It's not enough just to stop the inflow.
00:10:37.020 The first rule of holes is stop digging.
00:10:39.720 But once you've done that, you've got to get out of the hole.
00:10:43.520 It'll be interesting to see what happens in the UK as more and more people are starting
00:10:47.360 to talk about it, including the regime media.
00:10:50.560 You know, I've been friends with Tommy Robinson for about a decade.
00:10:54.220 And in 2017, he worked for Rebel News for a bit.
00:10:57.100 And we've stayed friends, and I've watched his case.
00:10:59.260 He was one of the first people to talk about these issues.
00:11:01.640 And he was hated for it.
00:11:03.220 You know, a prophet is hated in his own time, isn't he?
00:11:06.040 And he's done time in jail, all of it for his politics and his journalism.
00:11:10.340 He just did seven months in prison, solitary confinement, because he published a video to
00:11:15.660 Twitter that a judge told him not to do.
00:11:18.400 He was the vanguard, the pointy edge of the spear.
00:11:21.540 But now more and more other journalists, citizen journalists, but even mainstream journalists,
00:11:25.800 are starting to talk about this.
00:11:27.140 I mentioned earlier that both the Labour and Conservative parties here in the UK worked
00:11:34.340 together in secrecy to bring in something called a super injunction, keeping it illegal
00:11:40.780 for any British reporter to mention that they were bringing over up to 200,000 Afghans in
00:11:47.620 a secret special airlift.
00:11:50.280 First, they said, oh, it's to bring over our former translators from the Afghan war who
00:11:55.740 are in danger from the Taliban.
00:11:57.220 But there were only about 1,000 translators in the entire war for the Brits.
00:12:03.100 First, the Conservatives, then the Labour plan to bring over 200,000, including, it turns
00:12:08.780 out, some members of the Taliban.
00:12:10.620 It's just such a total joke.
00:12:12.140 But because they knew it would cause such a public shock, this was taken to court, and
00:12:19.100 the court granted what's called a super injunction, which means an injunction, you can't talk about
00:12:24.400 the Afghan airlift, and then an injunction on the injunction, so you can't even mention
00:12:29.500 that the first injunction exists.
00:12:31.300 There's nothing like it in the United States, land of the First Amendment.
00:12:34.620 There's no such thing as a super injunction.
00:12:36.840 And the fact that it was done tells you so clearly that the government knows what they
00:12:41.960 are doing is hated by the people.
00:12:45.020 And the fact that both the Conservative and Labour Party did that super injunction shows
00:12:48.860 that just, as some would say, two cheeks of the same arse.
00:12:52.880 And I hope that Nigel Farage finds his courage to follow through on this, because he's the
00:12:58.020 only politician who I think could do this.
00:13:00.700 I think he's nervous.
00:13:01.700 He doesn't want to be the pointy edge of the spear.
00:13:03.440 Just speaking of Tommy Robinson, he likes to keep a fair distance between himself and
00:13:07.720 Tommy, and I understand that.
00:13:09.360 Nigel Farage wants to be Prime Minister, and you have to reach out beyond just the right
00:13:13.480 wing for that.
00:13:14.980 But I put it to you that if Runcorn and Hellsby, one of the most pro-labor districts in the whole
00:13:19.500 country, can flip all the way to reform on the motto, freeze immigration, stop the boats,
00:13:25.520 I think it's time that someone talk about remigration.
00:13:28.400 You know, in the United States, Donald Trump is remigrating, or deporting is really the
00:13:35.340 word, hundreds of thousands of illegals.
00:13:38.340 Some of them are being sent, some of the hardened criminals are being sent to a special supermax
00:13:42.280 prison in El Salvador.
00:13:44.060 They've set up a version in Florida called the Alligator Alcatraz.
00:13:49.640 Of course, that's not only going to empty the United States, but it's going to deter more
00:13:54.520 illegals from coming.
00:13:55.600 You would be a fool to try and sneak into the U.S. across that southern border right
00:14:00.240 now.
00:14:00.500 And in fact, the number of people trying has fallen very close to zero.
00:14:04.760 But if you were someone in Pakistan or Afghanistan or a country, and I'm just going to swear here,
00:14:10.380 a country that Donald Trump has described as a shithole country, if you were in Somalia
00:14:15.220 and you heard that the British government will escort you across the English Channel, put you
00:14:21.440 in a luxury hotel, give you room and board, give you a cash payment, and then you can take
00:14:26.800 the train into London and work for Deliveroo and not pay taxes, frankly, you would be insane
00:14:33.600 not to do it.
00:14:34.380 But if you came from a country like Somalia or Afghanistan or Syria or Pakistan and a country
00:14:42.520 where women are hidden from public view, they're either covered head to toe in a burqa or they're
00:14:47.780 not allowed outside at all.
00:14:48.940 And you suddenly saw British women walking, you know, dressed normally for the U.K., which
00:14:56.380 would be lascivious back home, unescorted by a man.
00:15:00.380 It's not shocking that there are rapes from people who are being brought over from rape
00:15:05.020 culture.
00:15:06.040 You know, Western society has talked about rape culture and the Me Too movement and believe
00:15:10.560 all victims and all that.
00:15:12.600 And there's some value to that.
00:15:14.800 We don't want to physically, sexually, emotionally abuse or harass women.
00:15:19.860 Of course, we don't want to do that.
00:15:20.800 And that's one of the reasons the West is a high trust society is that we treat women and
00:15:26.200 people who are physically weaker than men.
00:15:28.280 We treat them with respect and with care.
00:15:30.920 But if you come from a place where violence rules and sexual appetites are unlimited, so
00:15:36.180 it's the women who have to pay the price.
00:15:38.020 If you bring hundreds of thousands of young men from those countries here, is it surprising
00:15:44.700 at all that within eight days, one of the migrants here allegedly raped or sexually assaulted
00:15:50.200 a young girl?
00:15:51.120 These are some of the thoughts on my mind as we head into today's protest at the hotel in
00:15:56.040 I understand that the professional protesters will be here.
00:15:59.000 We've seen them before.
00:16:00.020 They were bussed into Manchester.
00:16:02.600 These people are paid protesters.
00:16:04.300 They really just know that they're here to call everyone racist.
00:16:07.700 They'll do that here.
00:16:08.600 But it is my observation that calling indigenous Brits, indigenous Irish, indigenous French, indigenous
00:16:18.960 Europeans, calling them racist because they don't want to bring in illegal foreigners who
00:16:25.340 tend to rape women.
00:16:26.960 I don't think that racist word is working as much.
00:16:30.140 We'll see how it goes today.
00:16:32.140 On our way in, we saw a lot of police vans.
00:16:34.540 I think police aren't taking any chances.
00:16:37.580 There may be a tussle.
00:16:39.220 One thing I should note before I go and we're going to walk over there is that the police
00:16:44.680 last time sneaked in some of these professional protesters that were caught on film, really
00:16:50.120 bizarre, using police vans to bring into the heart of the protest these NGO stand-up to
00:16:56.380 racism pro-migrant protesters.
00:16:59.040 Obviously, they wanted some sort of a tussle so they could blame it on the far right.
00:17:04.640 That tussle really never came and their moves were exposed.
00:17:07.580 I'll keep my eye peeled to see if any of these professional protesters are being escorted
00:17:11.200 by police.
00:17:12.100 All right, let's head on over to the hotel.
00:17:14.360 So this is the forest on the other side.
00:17:16.200 It was really a two-minute walk.
00:17:17.920 It's the kind of place that would inspire a British book like Winnie the Pooh, the enchanted
00:17:23.480 forest or something.
00:17:24.980 Just a lovely place to walk through with nothing but fond memories and imagination of a child.
00:17:28.980 But that only happens in a high-trust society.
00:17:31.940 So this is this side of an entrance to the forest, and there's the migrant hotel.
00:17:38.920 That's the hotel.
00:17:39.780 Like, it's just, it literally abuts it.
00:17:42.200 It's across the street.
00:17:43.620 So you have all these migrant men, including the one alleged rapist who assaulted a woman
00:17:48.720 eight days after arriving here, allegedly with nothing to do.
00:17:53.240 I say again, some of them work illegally in London.
00:17:55.720 So they get cash in London, plus free cash for here and a free place to stay.
00:18:00.700 Not a bad gig if you can find it.
00:18:02.880 But the rest of them, what do you do?
00:18:05.120 You're not productive.
00:18:07.700 You're not integrated in the community.
00:18:09.720 You don't have a family.
00:18:10.680 You wander.
00:18:13.160 And if you see, like, look at those, I mean, just, that's what it's like in Epping.
00:18:18.800 Women go into the forest because they're not afraid yet.
00:18:23.660 But now that a 14-year-old girl has been sexually assaulted, according to police, they're afraid.
00:18:28.220 And they don't want it anymore.
00:18:29.120 They want it gone.
00:18:30.240 So you can see all the protection.
00:18:35.100 A layer of steel, a steel fence near the hotel, several riot police vehicles.
00:18:43.040 And you know they're for riots because they have that grill that folds down in front of the windscreen
00:18:48.400 to block the windshields from being smashed.
00:18:51.840 I don't know.
00:18:52.560 Maybe I see one, two, three police vans right there.
00:18:57.260 Maybe about 15 or 20 cops there.
00:18:59.760 More down there.
00:19:00.940 A second layer of fencing.
00:19:02.580 And then I don't know what that fencing's for.
00:19:04.100 Maybe they're going to try and have more protesters.
00:19:07.280 But here's the obvious point.
00:19:10.340 Why are police putting fences and barricades to protect the migrants?
00:19:15.700 Why aren't they having fences and barricades to protect the town?
00:19:19.480 And if you don't have a fence or barricade around your entire country to protect your entire country,
00:19:25.460 if you let the invaders into the country itself, don't be surprised if you're going to have to have locks on your doors
00:19:31.840 and tell young women not to walk through the forest anymore.
00:19:35.000 There will be walls.
00:19:36.520 There will be locked doors.
00:19:37.560 The only question is where?
00:19:39.120 Are they only around the elite, gated communities that the wealthiest people live in?
00:19:45.220 Or will Epping itself once again become a safe town because the country puts up a wall?
00:19:50.840 We'll find out.
00:19:52.380 It's 12.32 local time.
00:19:54.940 The protest isn't set to get underway for at least another half hour.
00:19:58.960 You can see some of the protesters arriving here stop the boats.
00:20:03.940 Let's go a little bit closer to what they have to see.
00:20:06.080 I want to know what the police have told them in terms of managing what they're allowed to do.
00:20:10.900 And I say, again, irony is not a strong enough word to describe the fact that the police here are not deployed against the foreign nationals.
00:20:19.760 They're deployed against the Brits.
00:20:21.880 If there are any arrests today, it will be of British people.
00:20:25.400 If anyone is threatened, it'll be British people.
00:20:28.460 And it wouldn't surprise me if mere journalists are arrested for mere words.
00:20:34.800 And I say that because yesterday in Norwich, at 8 a.m. before their protest, police swooped in on the house of one of the organizers and said he had used the word filthy foreigner in a speech.
00:20:45.280 Now, that's a rough word to use.
00:20:47.880 And I wouldn't recommend saying that.
00:20:49.420 I think that's a very rough word.
00:20:52.640 I think he was referring to sexual offenders, though, so it might be justified.
00:20:56.940 They arrested him the morning of the protest he was organizing to try and take the energy out of it.
00:21:02.320 It didn't work.
00:21:03.020 There were 1,500 who attended.
00:21:04.740 But do you see my point?
00:21:06.840 They're extremely quick to arrest indigenous British people who are upset with the migrants.
00:21:13.520 They're extremely slow to deal with migrant crime itself.
00:21:16.660 Let's walk down and see if some of the early arriving protesters will talk to us.
00:21:20.760 So why are you here in Epping today?
00:21:22.460 Because I don't agree with what's going on.
00:21:24.220 It's an absolute joke, and it's just getting worse and worse.
00:21:27.640 And what do you think is going on?
00:21:29.660 People coming into our country that we don't know who they are, no passports, what background they've got, if they've got criminal records, people getting attacked, and we're paying for it.
00:21:39.860 Paying our taxes, and our children can't get no places of their own.
00:21:44.120 And NHS, National Health, as well.
00:21:46.660 We suffer for everything.
00:21:48.680 For people that are coming in that we haven't got a clue who they are.
00:21:51.460 That's not right at all.
00:21:53.400 No other country would do that.
00:21:54.780 It would be as stupid as us.
00:21:57.340 There was a migrant in this hotel who, eight days after arriving in the UK, was charged with sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl.
00:22:04.480 Is there that rape culture that feels like a part of this as well?
00:22:11.340 These are almost all men of military age coming from countries where women have very few rights, and rape culture is the norm.
00:22:20.400 Is that on your mind?
00:22:22.320 Of course it is as well.
00:22:24.140 Yeah.
00:22:24.940 For me, my children, my nieces, and men.
00:22:29.420 Men aren't safe either.
00:22:31.080 Young men, young boys.
00:22:32.920 It's about women, but yes, also young boys as well.
00:22:36.800 Nobody feels safe.
00:22:37.760 Until we know who these people are, who's going to feel safe?
00:22:41.480 So you're from down the road in Harlow.
00:22:43.220 What brings you to Epping today?
00:22:44.480 I'm just here to support all these ladies and gentlemen, to protect the kids.
00:22:50.220 This is a Christian country.
00:22:51.660 At the very core of this, whether people want to accept it or not, is the evil Islamic ideology.
00:22:57.600 I can prove all this from the Koran, the Hadiths, and Tafsiyahs.
00:23:01.020 I probably know more about Islam than most Imams do.
00:23:04.920 I'm a Christian.
00:23:06.120 I'm a real Bible-believing Christian, my friend.
00:23:08.640 And I'm here to stand with my brothers and sisters to protect our children and Christendom.
00:23:12.600 This is a Christian country.
00:23:14.460 It will always be a Christian country.
00:23:17.660 Constitutionally, the monarch, the King Charles, is the head of the church.
00:23:25.440 The Church of England doesn't speak for the Christians of England.
00:23:28.160 But my point is, even if you may have a denominational disagreement,
00:23:32.400 my point is that England actually is a Christian country,
00:23:37.320 hardwired into its history, its constitution, and its monarchy.
00:23:41.000 So, when you say England's a Christian country,
00:23:44.420 you're not just speaking from a matter of opinion.
00:23:46.940 That is the ancient law that continues to this day.
00:23:49.640 It is. You're correct, sir. Yeah.
00:23:52.120 I'm worried, though, if you say the things that you're saying,
00:23:55.000 you're going to be nicked.
00:23:56.460 You're going to be hit with a non-crime hate incident.
00:24:01.700 Have you ever been talked to by police?
00:24:04.660 No, I haven't. I'm very, very vocal on social media.
00:24:07.320 Well, I'm surprised, then, because they have a...
00:24:10.080 I read in the paper today, there's a new elite squad
00:24:12.880 going after folks just like you.
00:24:14.580 I eagerly await them.
00:24:16.500 I can prove everything I say.
00:24:18.480 That doesn't stop it from being hateful.
00:24:20.960 It's not hateful.
00:24:21.940 The facts can be hateful.
00:24:23.400 The facts are the facts.
00:24:24.680 They remain the facts.
00:24:26.220 Well, I have to say, talking like you talk,
00:24:29.100 in a country like this,
00:24:30.740 that has just brought in new censorship laws,
00:24:32.980 I am surprised you have not been talked to by police.
00:24:36.520 I'm really not worried.
00:24:37.420 I don't fear who can destroy flesh and blood.
00:24:39.980 I fear who can destroy flesh, blood, and the spirit.
00:24:43.260 I'm scared. I fear the Lord.
00:24:45.480 I don't fear these in uniform.
00:24:47.320 I don't fear the Islamists.
00:24:48.920 I fear the Lord.
00:24:50.120 Well, look at you from head to toe in the Union flag.
00:24:55.260 Yeah, I, um, normally I wear more stuff than that.
00:24:58.320 When I was at a protest in Dover, where I come from,
00:25:00.840 because I've come all the way up from Dover
00:25:03.480 to support the protest.
00:25:05.500 I mean, I was wearing, like, Union Jack, um...
00:25:08.300 I was going to say you're too subtle.
00:25:09.680 You're far too subtle today.
00:25:10.700 Yeah, I know. Normally I wear more,
00:25:12.040 but I just put this on.
00:25:14.060 You just do this whole thing on.
00:25:15.580 Yeah.
00:25:15.740 I like your very sparkly necklaces, too.
00:25:17.840 Yeah, I love sparkly things.
00:25:19.980 Well, we're just having a bit of banter here,
00:25:21.720 but it's actually a very serious issue, isn't it?
00:25:23.420 And if you're from Dover,
00:25:25.000 that's really the English Channel
00:25:27.280 where a lot of the dinghies come over, right?
00:25:29.220 Exactly, yeah, it is.
00:25:30.500 Yeah, a lot of...
00:25:31.100 Have you ever seen any with your own eyes?
00:25:33.180 Um, I haven't actually seen them, but, um...
00:25:36.220 They're escorted in by the Royal Navy.
00:25:38.240 No, they're escorted in by Border Force.
00:25:40.280 Oh, Border Force, thank you.
00:25:41.120 R-N-L-I, which...
00:25:43.280 That's...
00:25:43.780 ...they find them, and, you know, in the Channel,
00:25:46.380 they have to...
00:25:47.380 So it's sort of like your Coast Guard.
00:25:49.060 Yeah, a bit like a Coast Guard.
00:25:50.220 So it's not the Navy itself.
00:25:51.320 It's more like Border Police.
00:25:52.500 Yeah, yeah.
00:25:53.580 And they're bringing them in.
00:25:54.620 Yeah, they're bringing them in.
00:25:54.980 That's really weird.
00:25:55.820 I thought their job was to keep them out.
00:25:57.260 Well, exactly, you would think so,
00:25:58.700 but they're just bringing them in and that,
00:26:00.640 and then from there they get given...
00:26:02.960 put in hotels and stuff like that.
00:26:04.880 That must be nice.
00:26:05.680 I mean, normally I have to pay for my own hotel.
00:26:07.660 Well, exactly, this is what it's about.
00:26:10.100 We, you know, don't agree with it.
00:26:11.560 It's the taxpayers' money,
00:26:12.980 and I always think charity begins at home.
00:26:15.320 We've got a lot of our own people that are poor,
00:26:17.800 you know, and they're wasting money on people coming through,
00:26:20.740 and they need to stop this once and for all, you know?
00:26:23.840 So why are you here?
00:26:24.680 To protect our women and kids from these people,
00:26:27.900 undocumented males who we don't know who they are,
00:26:30.440 and it's just, I just feel like women and kids
00:26:32.680 just don't feel safe walking the streets anymore,
00:26:34.500 which England used to be a safe country.
00:26:36.440 It was one of the hardest countries to invade in World War II.
00:26:38.880 Now that we're getting invaded by people
00:26:40.300 who haven't got guns, haven't got nothing,
00:26:42.160 they're just on a dinghy coming,
00:26:43.500 and they're just walking straight into our country
00:26:44.740 and getting placed in these hotels.
00:26:46.780 We've got veterans on the streets, homeless,
00:26:48.900 can't afford to feed themselves,
00:26:51.260 and they're getting luxury buffets, free food,
00:26:53.480 free beds, free phones, free trainers, free clothes.
00:26:57.760 It's just terrible.
00:27:00.860 Are you worried that talking that way
00:27:02.740 you're going to get in trouble?
00:27:04.600 To be honest, I don't care what they say.
00:27:07.200 I thought your mom and dad were here
00:27:08.320 so they know what you're doing.
00:27:09.280 Yeah, as long as I speak the truth
00:27:11.060 and speak what I think in a good manner,
00:27:13.260 in a good way, then I don't care.
00:27:15.700 Because if the people in uniform want to say to me,
00:27:18.900 you're racist, people on social media
00:27:20.480 want to say you're racist, so be it.
00:27:22.540 Because at the end of the day,
00:27:23.300 I know I'm not a racist, I know I'm a genuine person,
00:27:25.460 an English man who wants to protect our women and our kids.
00:27:29.080 Have you ever run up against authority before,
00:27:31.760 whether it's a cop or a teacher?
00:27:33.580 No.
00:27:34.100 A teacher, I was given a detention
00:27:36.140 for wearing a Reform UK badge.
00:27:38.020 Really?
00:27:38.680 I was suspended from school for saying
00:27:40.720 kids under the age of 18 who changed their gender
00:27:43.320 are mentally ill are suspended from school for saying that.
00:27:46.340 Wow.
00:27:46.700 The education system is woke.
00:27:47.920 And it's changed.
00:27:49.300 So are you in school now?
00:27:50.780 Yeah, I'm still in school.
00:27:51.700 I'm going into year 11 now doing my GCSEs, yeah.
00:27:54.800 So are you in a different school?
00:27:56.540 No, same school.
00:27:57.600 So did they relent or did you relent?
00:28:00.060 Pardon?
00:28:00.860 Did they back down or did you back down?
00:28:02.840 I didn't really back down.
00:28:05.220 I just stuck to my word, stuck to what I say.
00:28:07.840 I assume you're here for the protest, is that right?
00:28:10.040 Yes.
00:28:10.840 And are you from the local area?
00:28:12.800 Just Harlow, just half a mile down the road, yeah.
00:28:15.040 And so what brings you out today?
00:28:18.160 I'm just here to oppose the hotel and what's going on in general, basically.
00:28:21.420 I don't agree with it.
00:28:22.740 So I'm just here to support what I agree, basically.
00:28:25.100 I think so.
00:28:25.840 I heard that one of the migrants here, eight days after he arrived, he was charged with
00:28:30.640 sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl.
00:28:32.780 And that is really weighing heavily on my mind because it's such a high-trust society.
00:28:38.480 And I feel like that's being taken away from it.
00:28:40.680 Do you think that ordinary people who are not that political, that this has crossed the
00:28:48.820 line and they're starting to wake up?
00:28:50.140 Definitely.
00:28:50.680 I think people have just had enough now.
00:28:53.420 We need to bring change.
00:28:54.880 And this has just got to stop because it's just not fair on people that live in this country.
00:28:59.860 These people come over here.
00:29:01.000 They get everything for free.
00:29:03.080 I've been here all my life and I know the benefits that they get.
00:29:05.500 They get house, phones, money.
00:29:07.020 They're illegal for us.
00:29:08.740 They're already like people saying like, oh, they're like some people in support of it.
00:29:13.800 But they're criminals.
00:29:15.160 They're over illegally before they even get here.
00:29:16.980 So get rid of them.
00:29:18.560 100%.
00:29:19.020 They shouldn't be here.
00:29:19.780 It's disgusting.
00:29:20.780 Last question, then I'll let you go.
00:29:22.700 There's an enormous number of police here and not just visible, like just over the bushes
00:29:27.680 here, there's probably 20 vans.
00:29:30.220 And further away, we saw a staging area.
00:29:32.420 There's police from all over the UK.
00:29:34.700 Like, if I had to guess, I'd say there's probably 200 officers all told.
00:29:41.740 I think those are to stop the locals.
00:29:44.920 I don't think that's to protect the locals.
00:29:47.120 It's to protect the migrants from the locals.
00:29:48.920 I don't know.
00:29:49.600 It's just, I've just never seen such a policing response to a peaceful gathering of moms and
00:29:54.020 dads.
00:29:54.480 Well, it was, this is, these cages, this wasn't like it before.
00:29:58.360 I've come down here to a few of them.
00:29:59.960 And this is just another way just to oppress people, I think.
00:30:02.660 Okay, here comes a caravan of one, two, three police vans.
00:30:08.220 The reason I mention that is because there is a chance that these vans are actually bringing,
00:30:13.680 because they got smoke glass so you can't see.
00:30:15.480 We're told that the professional protesters, the Antifa types, some of whom are photographing
00:30:23.160 me right now.
00:30:23.660 Ezra Levant, how you doing?
00:30:24.800 Nice to see you.
00:30:25.640 What's your name?
00:30:26.220 Sam.
00:30:26.680 Hi, Sam.
00:30:28.540 There's all sorts here.
00:30:29.760 There's Al Jazeera's here, the Guardians here, a lot of journalists here.
00:30:32.800 And then some folks that are quasi-journalists and citizen journalists and Antifa journalists.
00:30:38.260 Antifa and Hope Not Hate and the Stand Up to Racism.
00:30:41.320 These are various government-funded NGOs who have one mission, which is to demonize and
00:30:47.660 denormalize ordinary Brits who are skeptical or critical of mass immigration.
00:30:52.700 Now, we heard that the Essex police sneaked in some of these government protesters in police
00:31:01.160 vehicles, and it would be too outlandish to credit as true, were it not caught on tape
00:31:06.360 by citizen journalists.
00:31:07.900 So I want to keep my eyes peeled.
00:31:09.860 Trouble is, as you saw, these police vans, they have darkened windows, so it's hard to
00:31:14.940 see who's in them.
00:31:16.060 But I'm also told by someone who passed by that they may be walking up here.
00:31:20.880 I understand there may be 150 of these professional protesters.
00:31:24.840 Here's what I know before they even arrive.
00:31:27.380 Number one, they are not from Epping.
00:31:30.300 They are coming in from the big city.
00:31:32.640 These are the professional rent-a-mob.
00:31:35.100 One day they're protesting climate.
00:31:37.180 One day they're protesting fossil fuels.
00:31:40.340 One day they're protesting Gaza.
00:31:42.340 Today they're designed to smear these people as racists or alt-right or far-right or whatever
00:31:48.440 the phrase du jour is.
00:31:50.880 It's going to be interesting how they're treated and how they treat us, because obviously we
00:31:57.340 have a point of view.
00:31:58.340 We're sympathetic to the people and we're critical of mass immigration.
00:32:02.100 My track record with stand-up to racism and people like that is, as soon as they Google
00:32:07.040 who we are, the wall goes up and they don't say a word about us to us.
00:32:11.160 But it'll be interesting to see who they do talk to.
00:32:13.620 I suspect that left-wing journalists will just be stenographers writing down everything
00:32:18.780 they say.
00:32:19.380 It'll be interesting to see where they're from, if they're bussed in, probably from London
00:32:24.320 itself.
00:32:25.140 And it'll be very interesting to see if there's any fisticuffs.
00:32:28.200 Now with the number of cops that are here, I don't know if that's going to happen, but
00:32:31.800 let me bring you back to what happened a couple of weeks ago here in Epping when those NGO
00:32:38.180 Antifa types were sneaked in by the police.
00:32:41.520 Use your imagination.
00:32:42.900 Think outside the box.
00:32:44.000 Why on earth would the police bring into a rally of local citizens, why would they sneak
00:32:51.620 in as stowaways Antifa activists?
00:32:54.440 Why would they do that?
00:32:55.480 Like, this is a completely peaceful day so far.
00:32:58.080 The cops are just standing around, bored, frankly.
00:33:00.380 I've been chatting with some of them.
00:33:01.760 Why would they bring here Antifa, which uses violence as a tactic, Hope Not Hate, which
00:33:08.760 is a provocateur's organization?
00:33:10.260 Why would they do that?
00:33:11.880 My theory is they wanted to provoke a conflagration.
00:33:16.820 They wanted violence.
00:33:18.520 They wanted a fight so they could have their regime media say, uh-huh, we showed you.
00:33:24.760 It's not grandmas and grandpas.
00:33:26.380 It is English Defense League, football hooligans, it's far-right troublemakers, it's violent
00:33:34.940 Reform UK people.
00:33:36.960 They wanted an incident to hang around the neck of the local activists.
00:33:42.520 That's my theory.
00:33:43.700 It'll be very interesting to see if they do that again today.
00:33:46.580 But here they are right here.
00:33:48.260 Where are you from?
00:33:49.300 Iran.
00:33:49.920 Iran?
00:33:50.580 And where are you from, sir?
00:33:51.760 Where are you from?
00:33:52.680 Go to the south of Iran.
00:33:53.620 Well, that one guy told me he was from Iran.
00:33:56.600 That's interesting.
00:34:01.760 They're showing their ID, looks like.
00:34:09.620 Well, my question is, what's he doing here from Iran?
00:34:14.340 Who is he?
00:34:15.540 Is he with the regime?
00:34:18.540 Why is he here?
00:34:19.680 There could be any number of answers to that question.
00:34:23.660 You would think that given that he's a guest here in the United Kingdom, he might identify
00:34:28.140 himself.
00:34:29.840 Alas, he didn't.
00:34:32.820 Kim, like me, I'm Ezra Levant, that's Ed, and we're with Rebel News.
00:34:37.240 And Kim, you sound like me.
00:34:38.880 You sound like you're not from the UK.
00:34:40.880 I've been here for 25 years, believe it or not.
00:34:44.000 And why?
00:34:44.440 As you know, it's hard to get rid of your accent.
00:34:48.100 So have you come here to protest in support of the migrant center?
00:34:51.980 Yes.
00:34:52.780 And where are you coming in from?
00:34:54.300 I live in Tottenham.
00:34:55.720 Okay.
00:34:56.340 So you've come up here.
00:34:59.320 Now, I just saw hundreds of locals who were worried about sexual assaults on their children.
00:35:05.740 And I wonder, because they tell me where they live.
00:35:08.480 Now, you've come in from the big city to tell them they're wrong.
00:35:11.080 Why are they wrong?
00:35:11.700 I don't live very far from here, just for the record.
00:35:16.260 We have a system, we have a legal system in this country.
00:35:20.240 Are you a citizen here?
00:35:21.260 I am.
00:35:22.100 I am.
00:35:22.520 I'm a UK citizen.
00:35:23.600 I'm actually a dual national.
00:35:25.420 So I'm a UK and American citizen.
00:35:27.100 So I interrupted you.
00:35:28.180 You said you had a system.
00:35:30.040 Yeah.
00:35:30.340 So in the UK, right, we have a legal system.
00:35:32.440 These people have come in illegally, though.
00:35:33.780 They haven't followed that legal system.
00:35:35.320 No, that's not true.
00:35:36.300 The people in that hotel are here legally.
00:35:38.720 They're under protection of the asylum system.
00:35:41.940 They came in a dinghy from France.
00:35:44.600 France is not a dangerous place.
00:35:45.980 That's a good point, right?
00:35:46.540 We don't have mob rule in this country.
00:35:49.020 Apparently so.
00:35:50.060 We're a civilized society, right?
00:35:51.920 Well, then why are you allowing...
00:35:52.980 That's another point.
00:35:53.900 Most of the sexual predators and rapists in this country are white men.
00:35:58.420 Not proportionally.
00:35:59.820 Afghans are 20 times likely as...
00:36:01.580 That's not true.
00:36:02.220 Afghans are 20 times more likely as...
00:36:04.480 I don't know why this group isn't going after all the white guys who are harassing women.
00:36:09.380 Well, I have an answer.
00:36:10.880 ...women.
00:36:11.580 Because someone from this particular hotel allegedly raped a girl.
00:36:16.420 Don't you care about her?
00:36:17.340 Of course I do.
00:36:18.420 Well, what are you going to do about that?
00:36:19.440 We have a legal system in place in this place.
00:36:21.640 But they're here illegally.
00:36:23.380 That's the whole point.
00:36:24.180 They're not here.
00:36:24.920 Why did they...
00:36:25.860 They came from France and they shredded their documents.
00:36:27.960 They're in this country, okay?
00:36:29.460 They're in that hotel legally.
00:36:31.220 And this country is protecting them as they should.
00:36:34.340 How about protecting the Brits?
00:36:36.100 The Brits are already protected.
00:36:38.000 Not the 14-year-old girl who was raped.
00:36:39.720 ...who should protect against are these white guys.
00:36:41.860 You look like a feminist.
00:36:43.060 Why don't you care about the women of Britain?
00:36:44.900 There's a mass rape going on.
00:36:46.520 You don't seem to care.
00:36:47.340 You haven't talked about it once.
00:36:48.740 Are you kidding me?
00:36:50.280 All you've talked about is the rights of foreign men.
00:36:53.800 Military-age migrant men have filled that and countless others.
00:36:57.960 They're not women and children.
00:37:00.040 Oh, I'm sorry.
00:37:00.880 Did you want to say something really nasty and mean to me?
00:37:03.520 You know, he's actually a very articulate fella.
00:37:05.680 Hi, how you doing?
00:37:06.640 I'm going to keep moving because I find this fruitless.
00:37:08.620 But I appreciate you stopping here.
00:37:09.940 I like this as well.
00:37:10.440 All right, let's go meet more of the foreign activists.
00:37:13.400 I guess you could call me a foreign activist too.
00:37:15.140 That woman looked like a feminist.
00:37:16.800 And I'm not...
00:37:17.880 I'm saying that based on what she said and also how she looks.
00:37:20.540 And I think that's a fair thing to do.
00:37:23.060 I'll tell you what motivates me.
00:37:24.200 I'm a foreigner, so I don't have skin in the game, although I care about the United Kingdom.
00:37:28.940 And I also see the United Kingdom, as you've heard me say before, as a dystopian time machine.
00:37:33.160 What happens in the UK today will happen in Canada in five years.
00:37:37.160 And so I'm worried about this mass immigration from rape culture countries.
00:37:41.760 And of course I'm not saying that every Afghan is a rapist.
00:37:44.160 I wouldn't say that.
00:37:44.880 That's ridiculous.
00:37:45.420 But it's 20 times more likely that an Afghan is accused of rape than an indigenous Brit.
00:37:53.320 Wild animals likely to be in the road ahead.
00:37:55.740 I think that's about to prove true.
00:37:58.580 Ah, you can see that we're trying to find where these Antifa people are coming from.
00:38:03.040 Because it would be terrible policing, in my amateur judgment, to bring the Antifa in physical proximity of the local community.
00:38:12.380 Because there would be fisticuffs and possibly worse.
00:38:15.240 So they've set up sort of a kettling zone, a fenced-off area that they're going to try and keep the two tribes apart.
00:38:21.820 And even directing the Antifa side from the train station, they don't want them to cross paths.
00:38:28.600 So we're trying to find their point of entrance.
00:38:32.540 I think it's important that the vast majority of people we spoke to today are locals here in Epping or just one community over.
00:38:40.480 Whereas the people coming in from Antifa and stand up to racism and whoever that woman was affiliated with have come in from the big city of London.
00:38:50.420 That's why they're coming in from the train station.
00:38:54.000 You can see there's a few cops here.
00:38:55.680 I think that's a sign that this is where they're going to come in from.
00:38:59.960 There were a couple of local lads.
00:39:01.260 I said, hey, can you come and have my back?
00:39:03.140 Because I feel that being far away from the crowd, we theoretically could be in some jeopardy.
00:39:07.720 I'm not too worried.
00:39:09.840 I don't think it's going to be particularly violent.
00:39:12.860 Although these are the kind of people who have no compunction using violence if they think they can get away with it.
00:39:18.860 In Canada, we sometimes send our journalists out with bodyguards.
00:39:21.920 Typically, I do that when it's Alexa or when it's Sheila because Antifa has a particular predilection towards hitting women.
00:39:30.920 You know, I don't want to get punched or anything like that, and I don't want our cameraman either.
00:39:34.340 But it wouldn't be bad to have a couple of lads just watching our back.
00:39:38.060 Listening to you and what you've been saying.
00:39:40.320 And you said you despise the fact that I'm in this country.
00:39:42.840 That is very intolerant to foreigners.
00:39:44.680 I despise the fact you're here because I think you're whipping up hatred.
00:39:49.260 What hatred am I whipping up?
00:39:50.560 You're whipping up hatred against the legally people.
00:39:54.320 Why do you keep using the word legally?
00:39:56.040 Because you keep using the term illegal.
00:39:58.620 They've broken the law.
00:39:59.500 The first thing they did was break the law.
00:40:01.320 It's not illegal to be an asylum seeker.
00:40:03.800 From France it is.
00:40:05.020 When you shred your documents it is.
00:40:06.860 You're breaking the law on your first act on British soil.
00:40:09.580 It's not illegal to be an asylum seeker in this country.
00:40:13.020 If you're a fake and fraudulent one it is, and they are fake and fraudulent.
00:40:16.700 They are not fake and fraudulent.
00:40:17.800 Then why are they shredding their documents and throwing them in an English Channel?
00:40:21.300 I don't think they are.
00:40:22.500 You don't think they are?
00:40:23.400 You don't need to have an opinion.
00:40:25.380 They film themselves doing it.
00:40:27.700 That anybody in that hotel is doing anything but legally seeking asylum.
00:40:32.060 One of them was charged with sexual assault of a 14-year-old girl.
00:40:34.880 Do you need more evidence than that?
00:40:36.240 So has the American president.
00:40:39.040 And is he behind bars?
00:40:41.520 Are you protesting the hotel in Scotland right now?
00:40:45.320 He's been allowed here.
00:40:46.840 He is convicted criminal being allowed in this country.
00:40:50.960 I'm appalled.
00:40:52.180 What crime has he been convicted of?
00:40:53.740 He's been convicted of sexual assault.
00:40:57.400 When did this happen?
00:40:58.840 Don't you follow the news?
00:41:02.400 He's never been prosecuted for sexual assault.
00:41:04.900 He's been prosecuted for sexual assault.
00:41:06.420 In which jurisdiction?
00:41:07.880 Oh, I thought you said he was convicted of a crime.
00:41:10.520 I think that is a crime.
00:41:12.080 He's not being prosecuted for a crime.
00:41:13.500 You're making things up again.
00:41:15.320 Again?
00:41:15.880 What was the first thing you said?
00:41:17.620 That they're not shredding their documents.
00:41:19.400 I said there's no evidence that the people...
00:41:21.780 They film themselves shredding their documents.
00:41:23.840 These people, you know all of these people...
00:41:26.120 No one knows them because they're kept secret, Kim.
00:41:29.420 Kim, I know more about you than I know about them.
00:41:31.360 We're whipping up hatred here.
00:41:33.760 And that is such a shame.
00:41:35.300 And you are coming as a colonist to tell these people
00:41:37.880 what to accept in their communities.
00:41:40.160 I am for what you're doing.
00:41:41.860 Where are you from?
00:41:42.580 Where are you from?
00:41:43.080 You took a train in.
00:41:44.200 Where did you take the train in from today?
00:41:46.180 I didn't.
00:41:46.680 I drove up.
00:41:47.460 From where?
00:41:48.120 Where do you live?
00:41:48.600 I live locally.
00:41:49.220 I don't believe you.
00:41:49.980 Where do you live?
00:41:50.620 I just live in North London.
00:41:51.940 I live locally.
00:41:52.840 And you're coming...
00:41:53.760 North East London.
00:41:54.260 I work in Stratford.
00:41:56.140 I work...
00:41:56.680 Where do you work in Stratford?
00:41:57.880 I'm not going to tell you where I work in Stratford.
00:41:59.260 You're fancy, aren't you?
00:42:00.100 You're sort of fancy pants looking down your nose
00:42:01.820 at the local peasants here.
00:42:03.700 And they should have to...
00:42:04.740 Would you take a migrant hotel outside your place of work?
00:42:07.340 Beautiful place to live.
00:42:08.960 Used to be.
00:42:09.780 Used to be.
00:42:10.380 And now you've got rapists here.
00:42:12.660 Rapists.
00:42:13.200 He was charged with rape eight days after he landed.
00:42:15.940 This country...
00:42:16.600 You don't give a damn about women being raped.
00:42:18.900 Say it.
00:42:20.040 You are whipping up.
00:42:21.480 A woman was raped.
00:42:22.440 A 14-year-old girl was raped.
00:42:24.080 And you haven't said a word about it
00:42:25.620 because you don't give a damn.
00:42:27.060 There is a sexual predators register in this country, right?
00:42:32.920 Not for foreign migrants who shred their documents.
00:42:35.500 Do you see any of these people protesting the fact that...
00:42:39.500 So you're trying to what about your way?
00:42:41.560 You're trying to what about your way out of this?
00:42:43.320 A girl was raped and you won't say a word in her defense.
00:42:46.780 No.
00:42:47.140 So you're doubting her.
00:42:48.540 Five charges.
00:42:49.600 She was found sexually assaulted and you're doubting that.
00:42:52.860 It's a legal system in this country, okay?
00:42:55.580 All right.
00:42:55.860 I am now on a street.
00:42:57.600 This is sort of where we started our journey, right before the forest.
00:43:00.440 As you can see, the police are sweeping the street clear of everyone,
00:43:04.300 including journalists, to make way for the Antifa activists
00:43:08.000 who have come in from London on the subway.
00:43:11.040 So again, Epping is sort of an exurb community in outer London.
00:43:19.040 We've just seen hundreds of locals from Epping and region here.
00:43:23.520 Here come the big city professional protesters.
00:43:27.820 You can hear their megaphones.
00:43:29.400 You can hear the chanting.
00:43:31.240 The cops are sweeping the streets.
00:43:32.900 I don't want to get nicked, as they say.
00:43:37.400 Oh, there's got to be 50 cops or 100.
00:43:40.580 They're going to act as a physical buffer, physical buffer,
00:43:45.220 between the locals in Epping and the Antifa activists.
00:43:50.720 I feel very safe, but in one second, that could turn into
00:43:58.380 where's your journalism license, mate?
00:44:01.500 You know, you never know in the UK whose side the cops are on these days.
00:44:08.980 There's a mountain of a man back there.
00:44:10.860 He asked me to move.
00:44:12.220 I don't think he gets told the word no too often.
00:44:14.400 There are some residents here who have popped out to see all the excitement,
00:44:21.560 and I've had a bit of a chat with some of them.
00:44:25.280 People even who don't show up at the protests today have expressed their opposition
00:44:29.680 to a migrant hotel right in the heart of their community, right near their schools.
00:44:34.640 As I mentioned, in addition to actual sexual crimes like the rape of the 14-year-old girl,
00:44:39.460 there have just been creepiness, like migrant men hanging out at playgrounds
00:44:44.100 taking photographs of young children.
00:44:46.620 And in that case, the police said, well, what is there that we can do?
00:44:55.000 Police not letting anyone, including journalists, get anywhere close to the Antifa.
00:44:59.660 I'm not quite sure why that is, but I think the police actually are doing their best
00:45:04.000 to keep the Antifa protesters and the Epping people separated.
00:45:14.400 There's 25 cops just immediately behind me, and there's got to be another 30 back there.
00:45:19.540 This is a massive operation.
00:45:23.300 Hi, everybody.
00:45:24.120 I'm in the kettling area for the group that has come in from London.
00:45:29.280 And there's hundreds of them.
00:45:31.000 I don't know how many, but it's several hundred.
00:45:34.340 If you told me there were 500 people here, I'd believe you.
00:45:37.080 It rivals, in numbers, the people we've seen outside.
00:45:40.760 But quite soon after I arrived here, the Antifa marshals came to block our camera.
00:45:47.040 You can see this bloke in front of me here.
00:45:49.280 And even right now, he's trying to block the camera shot.
00:45:52.500 I think it's an anti-Semitic thing, which is sort of weird and disappointing.
00:45:55.840 But there are a number of pro-Hamas activists here.
00:45:58.900 And I think the fact that I'm Jewish, I was on a – this gentleman consulted a list.
00:46:04.860 And I think it's a list of journalists that they didn't want.
00:46:10.900 It's our demonstration.
00:46:12.780 And you're doing a great job.
00:46:14.240 It's our demonstration.
00:46:15.000 It may be easier if you stepped out there to do your thing, because I think –
00:46:24.840 That's what I was trying – yeah, that's what I was trying to do, but then –
00:46:26.920 It might obstruct you, that's all.
00:46:28.420 Yeah.
00:46:28.800 Yeah, so that's all.
00:46:29.660 It's entirely up to you, but I don't think he's going to stop doing what he's doing unless you –
00:46:33.600 That's part of the story in a way, isn't it?
00:46:36.600 Thanks for coming over.
00:46:37.640 I appreciate that.
00:46:40.560 So what's interesting is that the Antifa side, the pro-Hamas side, the anti-Semitic side,
00:46:45.880 they have what they call marshals.
00:46:48.360 And it just goes to the professional activism of the other side.
00:46:55.980 What we saw earlier today on the Epping side was grassroots.
00:47:00.820 It was ordinary people from Epping.
00:47:06.380 And there was no particular organizer.
00:47:09.720 There was nothing being funded.
00:47:11.280 It was all authentic.
00:47:12.140 Here you have real Antifa activists.
00:47:26.300 There he is, Mr. Paul Sillick.
00:47:30.020 There he is.
00:47:31.440 With his security badge on as well today.
00:47:34.240 What's his name?
00:47:35.420 Paul Sillick.
00:47:36.180 And who's Paul Sillick?
00:47:37.700 He knows who he is.
00:47:38.700 Me.
00:47:38.940 No, he's me, baby.
00:47:39.920 Well, who is he for those –
00:47:41.300 No one needs to be on display at all times.
00:47:42.920 It's fun.
00:47:43.500 It's fun.
00:47:44.080 It's fun.
00:47:44.620 It's fun.
00:47:45.460 For my safety.
00:47:46.640 For my safety.
00:47:47.720 This is for my safety.
00:47:49.080 Police, the Aza.
00:47:50.140 Police, the Aza.
00:47:50.720 Good.
00:47:51.220 If we're going to start implementing rules, the security badge needs to be on display.
00:47:55.020 This is for my safety.
00:47:56.180 This is not your business.
00:47:57.040 He can't be security, then.
00:47:57.720 This is for my safety.
00:47:58.920 Yeah, but he can't be security, then.
00:47:59.600 This is for my safety.
00:48:00.720 It's not your business.
00:48:01.440 He's trying to stop him.
00:48:03.280 So that guy seems to know you.
00:48:05.680 Who are you?
00:48:06.140 Are you famous?
00:48:07.580 No, I don't.
00:48:08.120 Do you recommend me?
00:48:09.260 Well, I recommend you.
00:48:09.960 I don't recommend you do nothing.
00:48:11.960 So you, the German, the same.
00:48:13.300 I'm not saying it's the same.
00:48:14.580 It's not your business.
00:48:16.540 It's my business.
00:48:17.720 You're working with security.
00:48:19.120 There he is.
00:48:21.180 Everybody is copying the thing.
00:48:22.700 And obviously, this one is wanted by the Met Police for assault on NIAC.
00:48:27.480 This one here with a ginger beard.
00:48:29.680 Remember, Paul?
00:48:30.180 I made you famous last time.
00:48:32.000 Remember that, guys?
00:48:32.700 Tell me more about Paul.
00:48:33.700 I don't want to interrupt.
00:48:35.960 You start to be aggressive.
00:48:37.360 You see?
00:48:37.900 You start to be aggressive.
00:48:38.820 You are aggressive.
00:48:39.860 He starts to be aggressive.
00:48:41.120 Give to him that one.
00:48:42.280 He starts to.
00:48:42.700 You know what he's doing, man.
00:48:44.440 If you remove him, it stops.
00:48:45.740 That's it.
00:48:46.120 Remove him.
00:48:46.860 So they don't do anything wrong.
00:48:48.240 You start to be aggressive.
00:48:49.940 He's doing nothing.
00:48:50.880 Leave it now.
00:48:51.240 Leave it.
00:48:51.880 You know?
00:48:53.820 What language are you speaking?
00:48:55.520 Any language.
00:48:56.340 Any language?
00:48:56.900 Yeah.
00:48:58.500 Yeah, that's right.
00:48:59.260 It sounds like you know what you're doing.
00:49:01.820 All over.
00:49:02.320 What's your name?
00:49:04.160 We just stole Adidas' phone the other day.
00:49:06.500 Hi.
00:49:06.740 How are you?
00:49:07.360 And this one was distracting at the front.
00:49:09.020 You're a nice person.
00:49:09.900 You see?
00:49:10.240 You're a nice, smiley person.
00:49:11.180 You see that one, don't we?
00:49:12.080 Well, that's nice of you to say.
00:49:13.780 I'm Ezra.
00:49:14.300 What's your name?
00:49:15.140 My name is Mark.
00:49:16.820 Best not to engage.
00:49:18.160 Don't.
00:49:18.840 Was he telling you not to talk to me?
00:49:20.200 That's a shame.
00:49:20.980 We had a moment there.
00:49:23.320 You little goon.
00:49:24.360 You little goon.
00:49:26.060 You little goon.
00:49:26.360 Are you guys the bosses?
00:49:27.820 Yeah.
00:49:28.180 That's what you are, buddy.
00:49:29.400 All right.
00:49:30.060 Well, one fella, a patriot, was arrested for calling the Antifa side scum.
00:49:36.200 He was taken away.
00:49:37.440 Now we've been told to move aside because apparently the Antifa activists are leaving the kettle and the police are opening a path for them to exit.
00:49:45.300 Now, I hope they've set up a wall of steel, that is, trucks, to act as a barrier between the Antifa side and the local communities.
00:49:55.580 Some would call them the Patriot community.
00:49:57.780 It's going to be very interesting to funnel 500 extremists through a very narrow exit.
00:50:04.640 I'm not sure if this is planned by police, but it's happening.
00:50:09.260 All right.
00:50:09.580 They're walking out now with their handlers.
00:50:16.960 Yeah, there's a fellow who's got cootermans you wouldn't see normally in Epping.
00:50:21.160 The nose ring is very non-Epping.
00:50:23.580 Well, he's looking daggers at me now.
00:50:27.160 That fellow there, it could be Jeremy Corbyn cast away on an island for 20 years with no haircut or dentistry.
00:50:41.640 You look...
00:50:42.200 I didn't understand a word you said, mate.
00:50:48.920 It's just the same as Jeremy Corbyn.
00:50:50.660 I don't understand a word he says either.
00:50:52.460 Who paid your train fare today?
00:51:08.400 Do you know?
00:51:10.260 Do you know who paid your train fare?
00:51:12.320 It wasn't mom and dad, was it?
00:51:13.940 I'm guessing you're a 40-year-old student.
00:51:25.320 Is that right?
00:51:26.860 Are you a student still?
00:51:28.500 A student?
00:51:30.280 Why are you so shy?
00:51:31.920 You go to a protest and you're chewing on gum like a horse chewing its...
00:51:37.980 A cow chewing its cud.
00:51:39.820 How about you?
00:51:40.500 What's your name?
00:51:43.220 What do you think about the grooming gangs in the UK?
00:51:48.560 What do you think about the grooming gangs in the UK?
00:51:50.720 Boss.
00:51:51.440 Boss man.
00:51:52.580 What do you think about the grooming gangs?
00:51:54.620 Well, they were here for a solid 30 minutes.
00:51:58.160 I'm guessing a lot of them are government workers, and that's a little bit exhausting for them
00:52:03.680 to be at work that long.
00:52:06.420 They took the train in from London.
00:52:08.640 They take the train back.
00:52:10.160 Plus, it's about a half-hour walk from the Stationese Way.
00:52:13.180 That's a full day's work for these guys.
00:52:15.660 They'll probably get 250 quid from the various NGOs who've been paying for them.
00:52:24.620 Well, that's our show for today.
00:52:26.300 Until next time, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters,
00:52:29.720 to you at home, good night, and keep fighting for freedom.
00:52:32.620 We'll be right back.
