Summary
Shame on you, you sensorious thug. You re listening to a real news broadcast. I just landed in London, came straight from the airport, and I ve come to Canary Wharf, which is a very interesting neighborhood in the UK. It s high-end because everyone here is a banker or an investor or an insurer, and there are hotels, and high-rise condominiums and there s also a hotel, the Britannia International, which I was told was the first hotel of its sort in these parts.

I just landed in London, came straight from the airport.
00:00:32.640
It was an overnight flight, and I've come to Canary Wharf, which is a very interesting
00:00:38.980
It used to be sort of derelict Docklands, but about a generation ago, a Canadian real estate
00:00:45.320
developer, the Reichman family, turned it into a gleaming set of skyscrapers.
00:00:50.940
It really rivals Manhattan in terms of commerce and steel and glass and chrome.
00:00:59.100
Totally moved the financial center of London here, and it's very different from the rest
00:01:05.220
of London, which is about history and old architecture.
00:01:10.040
You could be forgiven for thinking you were in the United States.
00:01:13.640
It's high-end because everyone here is a banker or an investor or an insurer, and there are
00:01:20.460
hotels, obviously, and high-rise condominiums, and there's also this hotel, the Britannia
00:01:29.240
International, which I was just told by a local was really the first hotel of its sort in these
00:01:34.800
parts, but it's been a little while since it was freshened up.
00:01:38.160
Of course, COVID was difficult for all hotels, and very recently, this hotel did a deal.
00:01:45.180
Instead of investing millions of dollars in renovating and refurbishing, they cut a deal
00:01:50.780
with the government to shut down as a hotel and to turn this building in the heart of this residential
00:01:58.880
and commercial neighborhood, to turn this into an urban refugee camp for military-aged migrant
00:02:11.520
So the men who are going to be jammed in here by the hundred in a four-star hotel, I looked
00:02:19.020
It's more than 400 pounds a night when it was operating as a hotel.
00:02:22.600
That's, quick math, 700 Canadian dollars a night.
00:02:26.600
It is not cheap, but only the best for illegal migrants whose first act on British soil is
00:02:33.820
to break the law, to come illegally, to shred their documents, and to say, I'm an asylum
00:02:39.840
Of course, that's not true, and everyone knows it's not true, because they're coming from
00:02:49.400
If you're coming from France, it means you're coming for two reasons.
00:02:53.480
You know the UK is a soft touch and they won't deport you, and you know they're going to give
00:03:01.520
If your choices as an opportunity-seeking, swashbuckling young man from, I don't know, Afghanistan
00:03:09.800
or Pakistan, if your choices were come to the British government's all-expense-paid four-star
00:03:16.880
hotel in Amazing Canary Wharf, or go to Alligator Alcatraz, Donald Trump's new maximum security
00:03:26.740
prison, or you know what he's doing with the illegals in the United States, right?
00:03:30.180
He's rounding them up, deporting them, sending them to that El Salvador supermax prison, or
00:03:36.700
they've just built this new Alligator Alcatraz, as they call it, in Florida.
00:03:45.380
I mean, if you were truly desperate, you would go anywhere you could.
00:03:48.500
But like I say, these men are coming from France.
00:03:50.700
They're coming in bad faith, and everyone knows it.
00:03:56.380
I've only been here on the street for about 15 minutes, and I've seen so many young women
00:04:04.680
I've seen so many people who their daily lives would be immediately changed for the worse
00:04:11.120
if you had hundreds of military-age migrant men, especially from countries where they treat
00:04:18.080
women atrociously, where the idea of respecting a woman's space is unknown, where if a woman
00:04:25.520
goes out uncovered, it's proof that she must be a prostitute, and thus you can do what you
00:04:32.180
People are being brought to the UK by the thousand, approximately a thousand a day in
00:04:39.160
Now, the United Kingdom is surrounded by water.
00:04:44.940
And for centuries, the English Channel has served as a defense to this island.
00:04:54.300
The fact that the UK is an island is its greatest defense, and it also caused the Royal
00:05:00.080
Navy for centuries to be the world's greatest Navy.
00:05:04.220
It's one of the reasons why Britannia ruled the world.
00:05:08.300
But now Britannia is being ruled by any ragamuffin who can find his way here.
00:05:15.660
After the United States, it's probably the most powerful Navy in NATO.
00:05:23.160
Instead, they escort these boats in like concierges.
00:05:28.900
I could only imagine someone growing up loving the stories of Admiral Nelson, loving Master
00:05:35.960
and Commander, the series of books about the Royal Navy's exploits.
00:05:40.000
If you haven't seen that movie with Russell Crowe, I highly recommend it.
00:05:43.300
Imagine growing up loving the idea of the Navy.
00:05:47.940
And then when you're faced with this, truly an invasion, a slow motion invasion, instead
00:05:54.620
of defending your country, you act as the bellhop, the bag boy, the baggage handler for these
00:06:04.660
So many of them, of course, immediately go on the jihad watch list.
00:06:09.320
The UK has more than 40,000 jihadists who are actively being monitored.
00:06:20.480
The reason we're here at Canary Wharf, the migrants have not moved in yet.
00:06:25.500
This has just been announced as sort of a spillover refugee camp for other neighborhoods that
00:06:32.880
And one of those neighborhoods is a couple hours away from here.
00:06:36.560
In Epping, they have a migrant hotel, not as luxurious, not as large.
00:06:41.580
And one migrant who just came over, I think, eight days previously, has been charged with
00:06:47.500
sexual assault against a young girl, literally days after getting off the boat.
00:06:54.240
You come from a country where sex is repressed, where uncovered women are anathema.
00:06:59.540
And you come here to the UK, a high-trust society where women walk on the streets uncovered and
00:07:05.220
they're completely safe, and you're like a fox in a henhouse.
00:07:09.660
And so this man allegedly sexually assaulted this girl days after arriving here.
00:07:14.960
And so the local community of Epping, which is probably more close-knit than in a metropolis
00:07:19.660
like Canary Wharf, they took to the streets in a noisy but peaceful protest against the
00:07:27.940
Incredibly, police in Epping were filmed sneaking in professional protesters pro-migrants.
00:07:38.300
All the local community, especially mums, came out to defend their girls, to defend the safety
00:07:47.160
And the police actually used their police vans to sneak in counter-protesters.
00:07:55.100
It's as if they wanted to create an incident, like a Reichstag fire, to create a violent conflagration
00:08:09.460
What's interesting is I've arrived here in the UK just 48 hours after their Online Safety
00:08:15.660
Act or Online Harms Act, I forget what it's called, their new censorship bill has taken
00:08:20.800
And one of the ways this new censorship bill was sold to the country was it would stop
00:08:31.060
The first application of this new online censorship bill has been to censor videos of these protests
00:08:43.700
The UK is a country, I can remind you, that has 30 arrests per day for people saying things
00:08:51.380
that are not going to be against the country, that are not going to be against the country.
00:08:59.540
The UK really cannot be called a completely free country.
00:09:07.880
Because mass migration has led to so much, incredibly, the UK is now the number one rape capital of
00:09:23.700
So instead of dealing with the primary problem, the government's trying to deal with the secondary
00:09:31.920
They simply cannot find themselves a way to deal with the primary problem, which is mass
00:09:38.460
immigration of people who are not a fit for the UK, and in some cases come here as avowed enemies.
00:09:46.880
A couple of weeks ago, a shocking story was broken in a number of newspapers.
00:09:52.360
In the UK, they have something, a legal trick that we don't know in America or Canada.
00:10:03.440
And in North America, there are occasionally court orders for publication bans.
00:10:07.760
In my country of Canada, that's often when a minor is involved to keep the child's identity
00:10:13.160
And we all know that order's in place, and we understand it, and it's limited to that
00:10:18.020
But in the UK, they have a super injunction, which is they have a publication ban on something,
00:10:28.720
You're not even allowed to talk around or about the ban.
00:10:31.780
You're not even allowed to acknowledge that it exists.
00:10:34.200
And what had happened two years ago, the conservative government, as it then was, sought a super injunction
00:10:43.440
to keep secret their plan to bring up to 200,000 Afghans into the UK in secret flights and to stick
00:10:53.620
them in the community, and they had some ruse, some excuse, oh, well, we had a data breach, and these were
00:10:59.100
translators in Afghanistan, and we have to protect them from the Taliban.
00:11:02.680
Really, you had 200,000 interpreters in Afghanistan?
00:11:07.080
When there was an election last year, the Labour Party took over as government.
00:11:15.080
So what you see here is the unit party, the conservatives and the Labour, both supporting the super injunction
00:11:22.140
that kept secret from the British people and even secret from MPs, from Parliament itself,
00:11:27.740
that there was a plan to bring in hundreds of thousands of Afghans.
00:11:33.880
I'm told that there were only 1,000 translators, and I'm not sure why that gets them a ticket to the UK.
00:11:40.420
But to bring in 200,000 claiming they're friends and relatives is just completely shocking.
00:11:46.240
What has changed in the UK in the past week, by my observation, is for the first time, people no longer
00:11:54.480
care about being called far-right or whatever they're being labeled.
00:11:58.800
There have just been too many rapes, too many sexual assaults.
00:12:03.220
Despite this online censorship, the word is getting out, and when severely normal mums and dads are protesting,
00:12:10.460
it's not just activists protesting, I think we've reached a tipping point.
00:12:22.860
Of course, this is the fastest I could get to the UK.
00:12:27.860
I'm now going to head up to Norwich, which I understand is going to have a similar protest,
00:12:33.220
and I will go to Epping tomorrow, which is where this whole thing kicked off.
00:12:38.160
The reason they were protesting here is that they heard the migrants were going to be relocated
00:12:46.640
When I was just talking to some of the locals to get the lay of the land, one woman who works
00:12:52.020
in a neighboring hotel, she had her name tag on, she said that an entire building, because
00:12:58.360
there's a lot of residential towers here, an entire building's tenants were going to have
00:13:11.360
She said, of course, against the refugee camp, if you're paying premium rents or if you bought
00:13:17.920
a luxury condominium in this new revitalized community of Canary Wharf, if you're a young
00:13:23.820
woman working on their version of Wall Street, if you're someone who, you know, there's so
00:13:30.240
And imagine what this street will be like when you've got hundreds of indolent men in there,
00:13:36.260
don't speak the language, don't have anything to do.
00:13:39.460
I'll say it, sexually frustrated, because of course they are.
00:13:42.120
You're from Afghanistan or wherever, and you come to this, you know, high-trust society.
00:13:48.660
That apartment building said that lady is going to have a protest.
00:13:52.900
I'm sorry I won't be here to see it, but maybe I'll come back.
00:13:58.060
It's a gorgeous neighborhood that's about to be turned into a refugee camp because this
00:14:03.200
government cannot do the simple task of keeping this daily invasion at bay.
00:14:09.880
It's incredible to me, but the glimmer of hope, the silver lining here to me, is that after
00:14:18.760
years of being silenced and demonized, ordinary Brits are speaking up.
00:14:24.380
My friend Tommy Robinson has been talking about this for years, and he has been called every
00:14:37.060
But when hundreds and even thousands of moms and dads start marching, yeah, either you become
00:14:44.220
a police state and build a lot more prisons or something has to change.
00:14:49.980
To see all my reports on this subject, go to migrantreports.co.uk.
00:14:57.140
And if you think this is useful content that you can't find on, let's say, the BBC or CBC
00:15:02.920
state broadcaster, do me a favor and chip in a few quid.
00:15:06.100
I came over from Canada on my own time, economy class airfare.
00:15:18.560
I'll do my best to tell you what's going on here as I learn and teach at the same time.
00:15:43.560
I took off my suit jacket because we're in the rain and I don't want to get soaked.
00:15:48.960
I'm in Norwich, and if you look up there, you can see there's still dozens of people,
00:15:55.320
but the rain was coming down very hard, so I think most of the crowd is dispersed.
00:15:59.020
On the way in, I saw dozens of police, a large number of police vans at a nearby staging area,
00:16:06.420
which I presume would be the heavy hitters, the SWAT team types.
00:16:10.320
And this is all because there's a local migrant hotel like there are in so many different parts
00:16:17.380
of the U.K. at which military-age migrant men from countries where sexual assault is the norm.
00:16:28.500
And to bring in these men, unvetted, most of whose first act in this country is to break the law,
00:16:35.620
to sneak in illegally and destroy their records.
00:16:39.640
That's bad enough, but then to have, and in this neighborhood particularly, the men who typically don't work,
00:16:48.320
they lounge around playgrounds and they take photographs of young girls and young children.
00:16:57.280
And obviously the locals find that deeply creepy.
00:17:01.520
And I think that things have reached a boiling point.
00:17:13.200
I'm borrowing Ed, my cameraman's umbrella, thank goodness, because I'd be soaked otherwise.
00:17:19.760
And I want to talk to people and find out what's going on.
00:17:25.400
What I mean by that is this is not an organized, curated event.
00:17:29.880
I come to the U.K. from time to time for big rallies that Tommy Robinson has in London.
00:17:34.460
And those are planned months in advance with speakers flown in and PA systems.
00:17:42.220
This is ordinary people saying, you know what, I've had it with foreign migrants treating women like possessions.
00:18:03.180
So we're at Bothorp, the Brook Hotel, and Bothorp in Norwich.
00:18:06.800
The issue with the Brook Hotel, so it's housing migrants, so it has been for a couple of years now.
00:18:11.320
And the community of Bothorp and Cossie are terrified.
00:18:15.160
With the Breckland Park, which is about a 10-minute walk from here, roughly,
00:18:18.780
the children are being sexually harassed, followed.
00:18:23.700
There's two sexual offenders who have already come out of that hotel.
00:18:27.240
Dan Tesfala was jailed for eight years for raping a girl when she left the light club.
00:18:31.420
And Rashid Al-Waley was jailed for 20 months for grooming a 14-year-old online,
00:18:39.900
Have you heard of the case of Lucy Connelly, the wife of a conservative city councillor
00:18:45.900
who was sent to prison for 31 months for a tweet?
00:18:48.780
So 31 months for a tweet versus 20 months for sexually grooming a minor.
00:18:53.680
Yeah, it's actually quite funny because I wasn't supposed to be one of the organizers of today's protest.
00:18:58.520
That was supposed to be my boyfriend, James Harvey.
00:19:00.640
Well, at 8 o'clock this morning, we had a knock on the door at our house
00:19:04.020
because he stayed at my house, obviously, and they arrested him on the spot 8 o'clock in the morning.
00:19:12.300
I don't think they did, but tell me what happened when they came for James.
00:19:16.840
So they had the gloves on already, and they're like, okay, we're looking for James.
00:19:24.200
We'd just gone to sleep, basically, because we were planning the protest.
00:19:33.480
Because they were going to steam through our back door if we didn't hurry up, basically.
00:19:37.120
They were like, oh, you've only got one minute left.
00:19:40.240
They arrested him on the spot for racial aggravation.
00:19:44.040
And that was because he said, allegedly, foreign filth.
00:19:49.260
And this was five days ago now, which would have been Monday, at the diss protest.
00:19:54.620
The Park Hotel has been housing families of migrants since September 2023,
00:20:01.100
But the Home Office is trying to force all males into that hotel.
00:20:16.060
And allegedly, James said, foreign filth at the protest.
00:20:18.740
I mean, that's not a very friendly thing to say, but I don't know if word crimes are the real issue here.
00:20:24.340
I think that's – I keep saying the primary problem is bringing in millions of people, unvetted,
00:20:31.060
who are not a cultural fit, not an economic fit, aren't a fit with sex norms in this country.
00:20:37.180
And what happens when you do that is people mouth off, people push back in the ways they know how.
00:20:43.980
And just silencing critics, even if they do use rude language, it's not solving the problem.
00:20:49.620
In fact, it's sort of – if someone is speaking out with anger or pain,
00:20:53.520
it's probably because they have some underlying sense of grievance.
00:20:56.240
And telling them to shut up or arresting them for their words,
00:20:59.500
it's probably not going to make their grievance go away.
00:21:04.700
And I think if James did say that, which I can't – I can't remember him saying it.
00:21:11.820
I was going to say that, like, I'm pretty sure he'd be referring to the pedophiles that are –
00:21:18.120
Well, that's the thing about word crimes is what did they mean and what could they mean.
00:21:23.120
Context that it was meant in, and usually it's twisted.
00:21:25.540
Yeah, and I'm not here to promote those words, but to arrest a political organizer
00:21:30.400
the morning of a rally, using that as a pretext,
00:21:34.200
shows that they really want to stop people from talking about this.
00:21:41.040
We're seeing what's going on all over the country.
00:21:49.360
Well, foreign rapists coming here and attacking our children, really.
00:21:52.300
I mean, we've had quite a lot of it over the past year or two.
00:21:59.820
So it's time to take it into our own hands now.
00:22:03.820
We're just going to say I'm just going to show them that we're annoyed.
00:22:08.820
I was watching some videos back in Canada, and it looked like a lot of mothers are involved.
00:22:13.740
In the past, protests of this sort seemed to be more men, but now mums are coming forward.
00:22:20.640
I mean, the children, both sides of the parents.
00:22:23.520
I mean, you're not just going to see the fathers out here now.
00:22:26.420
I'm quite surprised the police aren't with us as well.
00:23:05.060
Because I just find it utterly ridiculous how us people have to work for them.
00:23:09.820
And to pay for stuff that they're getting for free.
00:23:18.060
And why do you think this system is set up that way?
00:23:28.220
Like, if there were indeed 1,500 people at the protest today, you'd think the government
00:23:43.220
I heard the police escorted some antifa types to this event.
00:23:54.380
Are you worried about, and I'm just going to put it out here, are you worried about the
00:23:59.120
possibility that you might be arrested for antisocial behavior or a tweet or something
00:24:07.680
But I think when we're all out together on the street like this, just waving flags and
00:24:10.660
shouting, I don't think they're going to say too much or do too much.
00:24:23.740
Norwich is honestly like, so London got everything before us.
00:24:29.740
I have seen the multiculturalism that is not working whatsoever.
00:24:45.580
I used to be on the left when I was a teenager.
00:24:47.560
And I used to think, oh, Jeremy Corbyn's amazing.
00:24:52.360
I don't even support Farage at the minute because of what he's doing.
00:25:00.280
He's cussing out our boy, Tommy Robinson, who is a hero.
00:25:08.120
But back in the day, I used to think he was that.
00:25:17.640
And I could literally cry at the fact that our country is gone.
00:25:24.760
I honestly cannot tell you how much I am scared for this country.
00:25:28.200
Now, how many people were here before the rain came?
00:25:30.860
And we were driving and it was very heavy rain.
00:25:33.000
And we were worried that we were going to miss it.
00:25:38.640
How many people here were here at the height when the weather was better?
00:25:55.700
Because, you know, I've always thought of Norwich as a little sleepy town.
00:26:02.320
It's like the third wokest or LGBT high place in the UK or something.
00:26:07.340
So you don't expect people to turn out in that sort of numbers to Norwich.
00:26:11.560
But it really shows because all of these people are local.
00:26:14.460
Apart from a couple dozen, they're local people.
00:26:21.540
And there was a little bit of hands being thrown.
00:26:26.640
But what I understand is that the police led Antifa through us.
00:26:35.920
My theory is the police want to fight so they can say, look at this, far-right hooligans.
00:26:42.400
I think the cops want violence so they can then, like, that's the script they want anti-migration people to follow.
00:26:56.940
I think, you know, if we're all aggressive and if we're all horrible to everyone, or if that's what the papers show, then they can paint us however they want.
00:27:06.200
We can be that image of, oh, they're horrible and violent, far-right.
00:27:11.260
We just want our children to be safe and our women to walk the streets, like, whenever they want.
00:27:18.940
There's a ton of them, but I take it they've just sort of stood by?
00:27:22.560
Yeah, apart from, like, walking or letting Antifa move around us, they have been all right.
00:27:30.820
The only thing I would have an issue with is the fact that they didn't close the road off, which they said, if it's over a couple hundred, then we will.
00:27:38.000
But there's a cancer treatment thing just down the road, so you can't fault them too much for that.
00:27:42.240
They've got to do the job that they're told to do.
00:27:44.520
Well, I mean, I wish I was here to see the Antifa interaction, because Antifa are brave when they have a mask on, hiding their identity.
00:27:55.800
And they're brave when they're in large numbers, picking on small numbers of people.
00:28:02.040
I'm looking around, and there's some pretty strong-looking guys.
00:28:06.700
I think that a small number of Antifa would have been shown the door pretty quick.
00:28:11.360
I don't know when they left, but it must have been really soon.
00:28:13.680
Because I don't know, if I was outnumbered that much with Antifa, which, you know, give it all the large all the time, they're all masked up kids, I would have gone pretty quick, too.
00:28:23.520
I would have left with my tail between my legs, and I would have been so embarrassed.
00:28:27.100
Well, listen, thanks for giving me all that background, and keep us posted on what happens to James.
00:28:34.540
And I say again, I mean, we all want to put our best foot forward, and we all say some things sometimes that are a little rough.
00:28:40.400
But I don't know, I think the UK has too many hurt feelings crimes, and too many hurt feelings prosecutions.
00:28:48.500
And I think a lot of the bad words are coming from the shocking reality that the government won't fix.
00:28:56.140
So, I don't know, that's just my view as an outsider.
00:28:58.420
Yeah, I agree. I think instead of labelling people far right, you need to start addressing the problem.
00:29:03.020
This is to the Home Office, to Keir Starmer, to the police as well, who have told, like, there's children being photographed at Breckland Park,
00:29:09.180
and the police have turned around and said there's nothing we can do because it's not illegal.
00:29:11.840
So, they're not enforcing, they're not protecting our children.
00:29:14.200
We've had to patrol our own areas because the police are incompetent to do it themselves.
00:29:18.700
So, yeah, I think people need, instead of labelling people, you need to listen to the issues.
00:29:25.160
We've been gathering out since last night with the veterans, in tents, sleeping out for three days.
00:29:34.160
They are out veterans who, not homeless, what they do, they go around places, and what they do, they support the 45,000 on the streets.
00:29:45.460
Tell me the difference between how homeless veterans are treated versus migrants who hop on a dinghy and come over
00:29:52.820
and are put in four-star hotels in Canary Wharf.
00:29:55.880
Tell me what it's like from the veterans' point of view.
00:30:06.500
In vets in need, it's a charity where we don't get paid.
00:30:13.000
If someone is a veteran on the streets, we give them a, we've got them a Bergen.
00:30:18.600
If you don't, mate, I'll show you, you can speak to a veteran.
00:30:21.480
We've got Bergens to give them, and they've got flannels, cleanliness, soap, and we give them to them for free.
00:30:29.920
For me, the Norwich community have come out, and last night, from our past five, they don't need nothing to eat.
00:30:38.520
They've got food in there to last them a month.
00:30:55.160
Everything's what they want, and it's called the mess hut.
00:31:03.580
We knew the Antifa were coming, but today is gay pride in Norwich, and that is why we picked today, because we didn't want the left to come here.
00:31:11.600
We're here for one reason, for our children, but the left, I've got another alternative, and they think we're racist, we're far right.
00:31:21.220
As you say again, what the police wouldn't have done, we had vodka called it off.
00:31:25.160
The police moved them over to the other side, but they let them come in, so I said to the police, you're making this bad, because we're not going to get involved.
00:31:33.980
While the speaker was on stage with us lot, we have got evidence of the police marching Antifa in.
00:31:54.600
And did they interview anybody, or did they sort of shoot you from afar?
00:31:57.840
We have told them, if you listen to me in this, if anybody talks to the BBC, right, don't speak to them.
00:32:09.580
I think GB News have been doing a pretty good job, in fairness.
00:32:18.540
They sent that, they sent, and they sent that, yeah, they sent him over to Calais, and I think he's doing a hell of a job.
00:32:34.100
All right, well, we don't have to talk about them.
00:32:35.900
So, what Antifa went and done then, they've come in, we had it all lined up, everyone was on pavements, both sides, and what did our patriots do?
00:32:45.560
They had to do it to stop them coming in, because we've got young kids here today.
00:32:53.580
We've gone up to the road, and the police couldn't handle it.
00:32:57.340
So, the police then got him over the other side.
00:32:59.880
But with the police, with the liaison officers, they've been brilliant.
00:33:09.140
We've been working with the police now for this campaign in three weeks.
00:33:13.920
All I'm going to say is, please, now, on the 8th of August, we are doing a national protest around the country.
00:33:46.840
I think that most of this rally and most of the cops attending the rally have dispersed down there.
00:33:57.340
But we were told that there were 1,500 at the height.
00:34:01.200
And apparently, that number did come from police.
00:34:05.060
Norwich itself has a low six-figures population.
00:34:26.740
Dan Tesfalul, jailed for eight years and two months for a rape in Norwich from the Brook Hotel.
00:34:34.360
So, it's not just a prejudice or a hunch that's a convicted criminal from the Brook Hotel.
00:34:42.780
Imagine dozens or hundreds of men at a migrant hotel.
00:34:53.520
And then the horrific thing happens, an actual rape in Norwich.
00:34:55.620
You can imagine why families have come out to protest it.
00:35:03.960
And are you from these parts or did you come in?
00:35:12.660
Which is, as you can see, is going to be a wet one.
00:35:16.100
And I hear that the fellas are bringing you lots of food to snack on.
00:35:20.940
Well, would you like to have a look at the back of the tent?
00:35:37.000
But it might be that we have to sleep in there tonight.
00:35:39.260
So, we'll have to make room so we can sleep in there tonight.
00:35:42.120
So, what's the meaning of having UK vets at this event?
00:35:49.600
There is a special meaning because these people here, right,
00:35:52.080
the government are paying for these people, these illegal immigrants, right?
00:35:55.840
And our veterans are out in the streets with nothing.
00:35:58.140
And I believe, personally, that our veterans, British people, should come first.
00:36:02.980
The British public should come first before illegal immigrants.
00:36:07.720
They're not freed from countries, from dangerous countries.
00:36:11.180
They're coming through nine safe countries to get here.
00:36:14.380
The reason why they come over here, because we are easy.
00:36:27.800
And are they all men or is there men and women?
00:36:53.680
What the security has done, as you can see, they've sheeted out all the windows and all
00:36:59.920
They didn't leave last night because there's a lot of workers here that work illegally for
00:37:10.220
As I've seen about the hotel, the guy's got five hotels.
00:37:13.400
He's got five-year contracts, £2 million per hotel.
00:37:20.560
They get a choice of iPhone or a choice of Samsung.
00:37:25.760
They have everything that's on it, all the internet, free internet, calls abroad, everything
00:37:33.800
I heard something quite disturbing, and I'd like you to tell me if you have any information
00:37:38.460
I hear that some of these men, when they're out of their hotel, they're lurking in playgrounds
00:37:44.340
or other places with young people taking photographs of young girls.
00:37:52.020
If you walk up this road here, you'll see a bus stop.
00:37:59.860
One's a primary school and one is what we call a high school.
00:38:05.360
And the children are coming down, and they're coming to this alleyway, and that's where
00:38:10.260
these guys here, these legal immigrants, are taking photographs, asking for phone numbers,
00:38:18.100
There's already been three incidents in this hotel.
00:38:21.100
Two have been arrested and are now serving time.
00:38:28.320
One was for a gentleman who exposed himself to a little boy in a toilet, a 14-year-old boy
00:38:36.400
Also, he was actually let out on bail, taken from this hotel to a hotel in Ipswich.
00:38:43.140
Can I ask you what the local council, local politicians have to say about it?
00:38:49.760
Are they on the side of the migrant hotel, or are they skeptics?
00:38:58.120
If they were worried about it, these people would not be in this hotel.
00:39:03.000
If the council were worried about it, these guys would not be in this hotel.
00:39:08.700
You know, the countries that you mentioned, I think you said Afghanistan.
00:39:19.680
I know there's definitely one Syrian there, but they're all nationalities.
00:39:24.120
These are places where women, if they're not covered head to toe...
00:39:31.900
They don't treat women like we in the West treat our women.
00:39:34.740
And I've got to imagine that's changed how people here live.
00:39:39.740
That the girls are afraid to go out at night, maybe, or by themselves.
00:39:44.780
I mean, when Glenn first started this protest here, there's a football field not far from here.
00:39:51.340
There was a 13-year-old and two 14-year-old girls proposed by these illegal immigrants.
00:40:04.920
They'll get a crime number, and that's all that'll happen.
00:40:11.700
The terrifying thing I'm worried about, in addition to what you said, is sometimes these
00:40:18.980
They're exploited or extorted, and they're separated from their family, and they're forced to do...
00:40:25.680
We might not even know about that, because they might be in some blackmail position.
00:40:31.040
Well, Tommy Robinson exposed these grooming gangs, and the government done nothing.
00:40:35.540
Now, the government said there's going to be an inquiry.
00:40:38.240
Now, let me tell you what's going to happen to that inquiry.
00:40:40.840
Keir Starmer said, no civil servant, no police officer will be arrested or investigated.
00:40:46.880
This investigation is an investigation, and it's going to be an investigation.
00:40:55.140
Were you live streaming, or were you just doing a general report?
00:41:00.300
I didn't go to the one in Britannia, but I've come down to Norwich, because it seems like
00:41:04.020
it doesn't matter what part of England you're from.
00:41:05.560
It's just widespread, these migrant hotel protests.
00:41:10.540
Is that how you describe yourself, a citizen journalist?
00:41:12.660
Yeah, that's what the label is, but yeah, I just speak to the local people.
00:41:15.640
I try not to, you know, speak to the politicians so much, but yeah, just local people
00:41:21.760
Well, I think calling yourself an independent journalist or a citizen journalist is a badge
00:41:26.420
It shows that you are not part of some corporate blob or some government blob.
00:41:30.620
So, I think you should wear that appellation with pride.
00:41:34.780
I mean, if people want to call it that, that's fine.
00:41:36.260
But I think people are respecting what we do a lot more now.
00:41:39.220
I think people are just seeing people on the ground, whether they're live streaming or
00:41:42.680
posts on YouTube, TikTok, and just seeing that, you know, it's not going to be manipulated
00:41:50.940
How would you describe the coverage by the mainstream media of this migrant hotel issue?
00:42:09.700
No, they definitely have their own way of putting things, but I don't think they have
00:42:15.660
So, if you saw down in Epping, I think it was a Telegraph reporter trying to speak to
00:42:19.140
one of the locals, they're telling them to go away.
00:42:21.220
So, they don't want to speak to the mainstream media.
00:42:23.460
So, the mainstream media can only go off what they can see.
00:42:26.700
They might see a certain flag, a certain politician there, and then it's suddenly branded as,
00:42:31.020
oh, it's a far-right politician, has kind of hijacked the cause.
00:42:34.720
But if you just go on the ground, 99% women, children, fathers, and are local from the area.
00:42:39.900
Now, that's an interesting anecdote you told about the Telegraph being shooed away.
00:42:45.020
They're not actually terrible, as newspapers go, but I guess people have lost so much trust
00:42:50.140
in the regime that they don't even want to risk talking to establishment media.
00:42:55.460
I bet that reporter probably would have, you know, used whatever someone told them.
00:43:00.320
Probably fairly, that's a fairly reputable paper, but I guess people just hate the media
00:43:05.060
Yeah, I think in general, the mainstream media are just so restricted in terms of there's
00:43:10.680
They might have someone above them who tells them what they can and can't do.
00:43:13.540
The BBC, though, the BBC is at war with any protester.
00:43:18.880
I don't know what, I don't read too much in the headlines of what the BBC did.
00:43:22.920
I wonder how many people under 30 actually get their news from the BBC.
00:43:28.680
It could be just an age thing where people who are maybe a bit younger, but they just
00:43:31.700
want to see what's happening on the ground, more in-depth, not just 30-second clips.
00:43:37.160
They want to be, like, in there, in the action.
00:43:38.800
They don't want to surface-level stuff anymore.
00:43:40.700
They want to know, like, who's committing the crime, nationalities who are living there,
00:43:44.660
and that just doesn't get reported anymore unless there's people like us on the ground.
00:43:48.580
What's the best way for people to follow your stuff?
00:43:50.600
Yeah, so just on YouTube, Wesley Winter, I'll be at most of these protests moving forward,
00:43:55.380
and I think you'll see other citizen journalists who will be here as well.
00:43:58.720
So, yeah, just search anything regarding hotels and migration that is going on,
00:44:05.700
I got here a little later than I wanted to, but I feel like you're really helping fill in
00:44:10.860
And also, like, rain or shine, even if you're here quite late, you can still see that people
00:44:15.820
They won't just go away as the counter-processors did when they're told to.
00:44:23.380
We were here tonight as well, and last night, the Deliveroo guys who work illegally
00:44:28.600
and don't pay taxes either, nobody left that hotel last night because of us.
00:44:35.860
You know, it seems to me that part of the social contract between individuals and the government
00:44:40.160
is you give the government the monopoly of violence, and you say to the police and to
00:44:45.500
the strong hand of authority, you protect us, and we won't do any vigilantism.
00:44:53.280
This is why I wouldn't call it vigilantism, but what I call it is the police are doing nothing,
00:44:57.520
and the British public are now coming to light.
00:45:00.600
People are starting to believe what Tommy believes in now.
00:45:05.400
People are rising now, and vigilantism sadly will happen because the police are told...
00:45:22.540
But what happens when the people who you give the authority to use force, what happens when
00:45:28.720
the police, instead of policing the threat, police those who criticize it?
00:45:34.220
And there's a lot of strong men here, and there's a lot of sort of mama bears worried
00:45:48.860
We are protesting today, and this demonstration has been for the future of our children, of
00:45:53.940
that lady's children, of that young lady there, for her children, when she eventually
00:46:04.800
Simple as undocumented and illegal immigrants out of this country.
00:46:19.660
Nigel Farage is okay for now, but we need a stronger leader than him.
00:46:24.860
When what we need is more right parties, not far right, none of this Nazism, what people
00:46:31.780
We need more of them in so we can get the Conservatives, because they're just as bad as the Liberal Party,
00:46:39.340
They're going to lead Britain back to what it was.
