Transcript

00:00:00.000 Tonight, Tommy Robinson's Last Days of Freedom.
00:00:03.560 It's October 28th, and this is the Ezra Levant Show.
00:00:07.160 You're fighting for freedom!
00:00:09.980 Shame on you, you censorious whoobug!
00:00:21.520 Hi there, I am in downtown London.
00:00:24.080 I've been in this city for about three days
00:00:26.180 for some very interesting events touching on freedom of speech
00:00:30.140 and two-tiered justice.
00:00:32.140 As I always say when I come to the United Kingdom,
00:00:34.620 it's like getting into a dystopian time machine.
00:00:37.780 What happens in the UK today often happens in Canada tomorrow,
00:00:41.900 not even five years into the future.
00:00:44.040 Let me tell you what I'm about to show you.
00:00:45.960 I'm coming to you on Monday night,
00:00:47.640 but I first arrived here on Saturday morning.
00:00:50.920 Tommy Robinson was having a huge rally in the centre of the city
00:00:54.900 against two-tiered justice.
00:00:57.180 Except for Tommy himself was not there.
00:00:58.900 He had been arrested by police.
00:01:01.440 Let me show you the course of my day in central London
00:01:04.220 at Tommy Robinson's protest without Tommy Robinson.
00:01:07.840 Oh, Tommy!
00:01:11.300 Oh, Tommy Robinson!
00:01:16.860 What's in the backpack?
00:01:19.420 It's a computer.
00:01:20.100 It's a computer that allows us to live stream.
00:01:25.240 So the big pieces.
00:01:26.980 So are you doing some facial recognition?
00:01:29.040 No, we don't have any of that.
00:01:30.280 Really?
00:01:30.660 Well, then what are you live streaming?
00:01:32.340 Just what's going on?
00:01:33.540 We have to have one standard of justice,
00:01:53.560 not two standards of justice.
00:01:55.640 And what I've seen in the United Kingdom
00:01:57.560 is not the UK I learned about in law school in Canada.
00:02:01.720 Canada, when we studied the law,
00:02:04.000 when we looked to the roots of it,
00:02:06.180 the rule of law,
00:02:07.080 we looked to the British cases,
00:02:09.260 and it meant that no one was above the law.
00:02:16.120 Ezra Levant here.
00:02:17.140 I just touched down at Heathrow Airport in London.
00:02:19.860 I'm going to make my way downtown to Parliament Square,
00:02:23.100 where later today,
00:02:24.460 Tommy Robinson's team
00:02:26.120 will have a mass, peaceful political rally
00:02:29.980 in support of one-tier justice,
00:02:33.240 as opposed to the two-tier justice
00:02:35.400 that now rules in the United Kingdom.
00:02:38.240 Now, the major detail of this story
00:02:40.480 is that Tommy Robinson himself will not be there.
00:02:43.280 He was arrested yesterday by police
00:02:45.980 on a trumped-up charge.
00:02:47.400 In fact, I would call it an abuse of process.
00:02:50.160 Under the Terrorism Act here in the UK,
00:02:52.620 there's sort of a ticking time bomb provision
00:02:55.300 where if you catch a terrorist mastermind
00:02:58.480 and there's only a matter of minutes
00:02:59.920 before some bomb is going to explode,
00:03:02.980 you can interrogate that terrorist
00:03:05.020 without him having the right to remain silent.
00:03:08.180 You can search his stuff,
00:03:09.560 including his cell phone,
00:03:11.000 without a warrant.
00:03:12.360 Now, that only applies to terrorists, of course,
00:03:14.360 but they used that law against Tommy Robinson.
00:03:16.960 They said, show us all your phone details.
00:03:19.480 He said no, so they arrested him
00:03:22.180 because he wouldn't give them the password to his phone,
00:03:26.520 his phone where he has journalistic stories, legal matters.
00:03:30.560 The fact that this is just uneventful
00:03:34.680 in the United Kingdom,
00:03:36.160 that the entire media isn't shocked by this.
00:03:39.520 I mean, Tommy Robinson is a citizen journalist.
00:03:42.280 Imagine if a journalist at the BBC
00:03:43.860 or at the Daily Mail
00:03:45.520 had their cell phone seized by police
00:03:48.000 and was told, give us your password
00:03:49.660 or we'll arrest you.
00:03:51.020 The country would be up in arms.
00:03:52.440 But like I say, two-tier justice.
00:03:54.840 Tommy is arrested.
00:03:56.640 Actual terrorists rule the streets in the UK.
00:03:59.400 I've been to marches in this city,
00:04:01.380 close to 100,000 pro-Hamas activists.
00:04:04.000 I think the fact that he has a hearing on Monday
00:04:07.340 where he could be sent to prison
00:04:09.680 for up to two years
00:04:10.780 or even possibly more
00:04:12.360 because he published a film about censorship,
00:04:15.440 that's what it is.
00:04:16.220 He's not being charged with a crime.
00:04:17.500 He's being charged with contempt of court
00:04:19.420 because a judge said,
00:04:20.420 don't you publish that film?
00:04:22.060 And Tommy did anyways.
00:04:23.420 So he'll likely be going to jail.
00:04:26.140 The silence of the establishment is damning.
00:04:29.740 I mean, you can judge what Tommy's doing
00:04:31.360 as wise or unwise,
00:04:32.880 but what it's actually doing
00:04:35.360 is unmasking the true nature
00:04:37.520 of justice in the United Kingdom.
00:04:39.660 To arrest a peaceful political activist
00:04:42.220 on the eve of his rally,
00:04:44.560 silence from the establishment,
00:04:46.040 to have a hearing about sending him to prison
00:04:48.900 for up to two years
00:04:50.420 or frankly more
00:04:51.600 because he made a film about censorship.
00:04:54.260 Welcome to the UK.
00:04:55.880 I would blame Labour's government
00:04:58.100 and Keir Starmer,
00:04:59.240 the new authoritarian prime minister,
00:05:00.780 but let's be candid.
00:05:01.880 This was going on under the Tories before them.
00:05:04.560 I'll be here all day.
00:05:06.040 And in fact,
00:05:06.460 I'm going to stay on a few days.
00:05:07.960 I'm going to be here on Monday
00:05:09.320 for Tommy's court hearing.
00:05:10.960 I'll be live tweeting from the courtroom
00:05:13.440 because I don't trust the regime media
00:05:15.900 in the UK.
00:05:16.740 Do you?
00:05:17.660 Tommy asked me to give a quick speech
00:05:18.980 at the rally today.
00:05:19.660 I'll do that as well.
00:05:20.660 If you want to support my journalism,
00:05:22.720 go to TommyTrial.com.
00:05:25.220 I just flew in on an economy class air ticket.
00:05:27.980 I'm staying at an economy hotel,
00:05:29.600 but odds are the cost will come up
00:05:31.600 to about $1,500.
00:05:32.860 If you can help out,
00:05:33.980 go to TommyTrial.com.
00:05:35.140 Thanks.
00:05:48.680 I'm making my way towards Parliament Square
00:05:51.600 in London,
00:05:52.800 where Tommy Robinson's rally
00:05:54.680 is taking place without Tommy Robinson.
00:05:57.200 He himself has been arrested.
00:05:59.300 Police decided to take him off the streets
00:06:01.360 to interfere with his peaceful protest tonight.
00:06:04.560 The reason I'm stopping here
00:06:05.980 is to show you
00:06:06.840 the riot police on riot horses.
00:06:10.480 There's no need for those police.
00:06:12.220 As you can see,
00:06:13.480 I'm several blocks away
00:06:15.620 from Parliament Hill.
00:06:17.220 It's actually none of Tommy's people are here.
00:06:19.980 It looks like just a regular crowd,
00:06:22.020 but there's police cars
00:06:23.500 and police riot horses.
00:06:25.120 Behind me,
00:06:25.480 I don't know if you can see it,
00:06:26.440 is the Millennium Eye,
00:06:28.040 as it's called.
00:06:28.820 Huge Ferris wheel,
00:06:30.100 real major tourist attraction.
00:06:31.520 Let me just spin around.
00:06:32.420 And behind me now
00:06:34.260 is the New Scotland Yard.
00:06:37.340 These are the folks,
00:06:38.400 sort of the FBI
00:06:39.120 of the UK.
00:06:42.500 Press reports going back years
00:06:44.140 say there are 43,000
00:06:46.540 suspected jihadists
00:06:49.740 walking the streets
00:06:51.420 of the UK.
00:06:53.260 43,000.
00:06:55.000 It's impossible to track
00:06:56.320 43,000 people around the clock.
00:06:58.620 I suppose it would be easier
00:06:59.820 to boot them out of the country,
00:07:01.620 but that's not how
00:07:03.060 the UK rolls these days.
00:07:04.760 I wonder what,
00:07:05.900 I mean,
00:07:06.600 you can see these cops
00:07:07.600 are just sort of guarding
00:07:08.740 Scotland Yard.
00:07:09.720 I don't think they're actual
00:07:10.660 Scotland Yard detectives,
00:07:12.960 but I wonder what they think
00:07:14.440 about all this,
00:07:15.740 about jailing
00:07:16.780 Indigenous working-class Brits
00:07:19.540 while emptying the prisons
00:07:21.980 of actual violent criminals
00:07:23.520 to make room
00:07:24.180 in the prisons
00:07:24.800 and of course
00:07:26.060 not laying a hand
00:07:27.480 on the pro-Hamas
00:07:28.940 Islamist extremists
00:07:31.000 that have flooded
00:07:32.100 this country
00:07:32.740 over the last decade.
00:07:33.780 I just discovered
00:07:42.540 the most astonishing thing.
00:07:44.360 As you can see,
00:07:45.180 I'm making my way
00:07:46.360 to Parliament Square.
00:07:49.540 Hidden is
00:07:51.560 Big Ben right there.
00:07:55.340 And so I saw a big screen
00:07:57.380 and I heard some sounds
00:07:58.340 and I thought,
00:07:58.880 oh, that's Tommy Robinson's group.
00:08:00.420 No, it's the counter-protest
00:08:02.720 by the Socialist Workers' Party
00:08:05.520 and their sign,
00:08:06.840 as you can see,
00:08:08.100 says,
00:08:08.980 smash fascism
00:08:11.320 and racism
00:08:12.020 by any means necessary.
00:08:14.740 Well, that includes,
00:08:16.400 that obviously includes violence.
00:08:18.400 I mean,
00:08:18.600 their symbol is a fist.
00:08:20.420 So you can call
00:08:21.720 for the smashing
00:08:22.800 of people
00:08:24.320 if you're talking
00:08:25.660 about Tommy Robinson
00:08:26.760 and his friends
00:08:28.280 and their families.
00:08:29.720 You can call
00:08:30.260 for the smashing
00:08:31.140 of people in the streets.
00:08:32.140 We know that
00:08:32.860 because 100,000
00:08:34.300 pro-Hamas extremists
00:08:35.520 marched this same street.
00:08:37.260 No one's allowed
00:08:37.840 through this way.
00:08:38.680 We're going to have to go across
00:08:40.020 along South Bank
00:08:41.320 and back across the area.
00:08:42.640 Let me be fair.
00:08:43.480 I just spoke
00:08:44.040 to those cops there.
00:08:45.620 They have absolutely
00:08:46.620 sealed off the road.
00:08:48.540 There will be
00:08:49.100 no Socialist Workers' Party
00:08:50.520 types
00:08:50.980 who make contact
00:08:52.540 with Tommy's teams.
00:08:54.120 I want to show you
00:08:59.520 one sign.
00:09:00.720 It's right behind me here.
00:09:02.520 RIP Peter Lynch.
00:09:04.900 And Peter Lynch
00:09:05.640 was a senior citizen
00:09:08.340 who was thrown in prison
00:09:10.380 for, I think,
00:09:10.920 it was two years
00:09:11.760 for, I don't know,
00:09:13.400 gesturing
00:09:13.900 or some social media posts.
00:09:15.540 Nothing violent.
00:09:16.900 Let me just show that there.
00:09:19.480 See,
00:09:19.780 the other side of the sign.
00:09:20.660 He was thrown in prison
00:09:22.060 and really to his death,
00:09:25.300 because you put
00:09:25.780 a 60-something-year-old
00:09:27.240 pro-Tommy Robinson guy
00:09:29.640 in prison
00:09:30.440 that's dominated
00:09:31.740 by Islamic gangs,
00:09:34.220 he's going to die
00:09:34.920 one way or another.
00:09:36.640 And a lot of people here
00:09:37.740 and a lot of people
00:09:38.420 in this movement
00:09:39.340 believe that
00:09:40.760 to be sentenced
00:09:42.200 to prison
00:09:43.360 for an anti-immigration
00:09:46.180 or pro-Britain
00:09:47.760 point of view
00:09:48.780 is tantamount
00:09:49.520 to a death sentence.
00:09:50.920 That's what that was about.
00:09:53.520 I made my way
00:09:54.520 closer to the front,
00:09:55.820 just absolutely surrounded
00:09:57.380 by patriotic flags.
00:09:59.620 I see Scottish flags,
00:10:01.240 British flags,
00:10:02.740 the English
00:10:03.120 cross of St. George,
00:10:05.040 flags saying
00:10:05.780 Jesus is King.
00:10:07.820 I think that's
00:10:08.280 the Welsh flag there.
00:10:09.520 I see another star.
00:10:13.480 I can tell you
00:10:14.700 from frequenting
00:10:16.300 London City Centre,
00:10:18.400 where you don't
00:10:19.020 usually see
00:10:20.240 patriotic flags.
00:10:23.040 What's happening
00:10:23.760 up front now
00:10:24.580 is the streaming
00:10:27.820 of Tommy's
00:10:28.860 new movie
00:10:29.980 called Lawfare.
00:10:32.660 I'm going to join the crowd
00:10:34.000 and watching it.
00:10:35.140 They are punishing
00:10:36.340 the people
00:10:37.060 who speak out
00:10:38.340 in the things
00:10:39.320 of the children
00:10:40.280 of the poor.
00:10:41.560 There is fucking nothing
00:10:43.020 that compares to rape.
00:10:44.380 The only thing
00:10:44.880 that compares to rape
00:10:46.140 is torture.
00:10:47.640 You're not going to have
00:10:48.140 the BBC News doing this.
00:10:49.480 You're not going to have
00:10:49.880 ITV, GB, anyone.
00:10:51.740 This is real
00:10:52.560 citizen journalism.
00:10:56.960 We're bringing you content
00:10:57.980 no one else will.
00:10:59.280 Ladies and gents,
00:11:00.840 Ezra Levan.
00:11:01.500 It's great to see
00:11:07.680 everybody.
00:11:09.920 If I had to sum up
00:11:15.220 British law
00:11:16.120 in two words,
00:11:17.420 it would be the
00:11:18.020 Latin phrase
00:11:18.700 stare decisis,
00:11:20.220 which means
00:11:20.900 let the precedent
00:11:21.880 stand.
00:11:23.320 Another way of saying
00:11:24.140 that is
00:11:24.700 what's good for the goose
00:11:26.260 is good for the gander.
00:11:27.260 Another way of saying
00:11:27.860 that is
00:11:28.300 you have to have
00:11:29.100 one standard
00:11:30.560 of justice,
00:11:31.320 not two standards
00:11:32.200 of justice.
00:11:33.300 And what I've seen
00:11:34.280 in the United Kingdom
00:11:35.300 is not the UK
00:11:37.160 I learned about
00:11:38.040 in law school
00:11:38.760 in Canada.
00:11:40.020 When we studied
00:11:41.120 the law,
00:11:41.740 when we looked
00:11:42.440 to the roots of it,
00:11:43.920 the rule of law,
00:11:44.820 we looked to the
00:11:45.380 British cases
00:11:46.320 and it meant
00:11:48.320 that no one
00:11:48.940 was above the law.
00:11:51.000 No one was too
00:11:51.660 powerful or too
00:11:52.640 fancy
00:11:53.260 to be held
00:11:54.560 to account,
00:11:55.120 but it also meant
00:11:55.920 no one was beneath
00:11:57.100 the law.
00:11:58.640 And I believe
00:11:59.760 that that second part
00:12:01.180 is a problem
00:12:01.800 in the United Kingdom
00:12:02.680 today.
00:12:04.020 Look at the treatment
00:12:05.180 of thousands
00:12:06.500 of young girls
00:12:07.520 in this country,
00:12:09.040 like in Rotherham.
00:12:10.040 They were beneath
00:12:10.760 the law.
00:12:11.340 The law didn't give
00:12:12.120 a damn about them
00:12:13.160 because they were
00:12:14.440 indigenous,
00:12:15.600 white British women
00:12:16.680 and that's just
00:12:17.480 too politically incorrect.
00:12:19.020 Look at how this event
00:12:20.220 is being policed
00:12:21.160 today.
00:12:22.600 Riot police
00:12:23.580 with their riot gear.
00:12:25.400 I saw one cop
00:12:26.480 filming everyone's face.
00:12:28.280 He told me
00:12:28.780 it wasn't
00:12:29.280 for facial recognition.
00:12:31.200 I was in London
00:12:32.240 for the 100,000 person
00:12:34.600 pro-Hamas march
00:12:36.440 where they chanted
00:12:37.720 for Intifada.
00:12:39.480 That's a violent
00:12:40.340 riot against the Jews
00:12:42.000 where they called
00:12:42.920 for genocide.
00:12:44.160 No riot police
00:12:45.180 nearby there.
00:12:46.240 No one filming
00:12:47.220 the faces there.
00:12:49.020 I'm worried
00:12:50.040 that the United Kingdom's
00:12:51.820 core character
00:12:53.740 of the rule of law
00:12:55.540 is falling apart
00:12:56.820 and the fact
00:12:58.180 that they are trying
00:12:58.900 to intimidate you
00:13:00.100 and not have you gather
00:13:01.840 is part of that.
00:13:03.440 Tommy Robinson
00:13:04.240 was arrested last night
00:13:05.840 under the Terrorism Act,
00:13:08.040 a version of the
00:13:08.760 American Patriot Act
00:13:10.640 because he wouldn't
00:13:11.880 give them
00:13:12.300 the cell phone password
00:13:14.040 to get into his phone.
00:13:16.060 That's a law
00:13:16.760 for terrorists,
00:13:17.780 not for journalists.
00:13:19.460 Do you think
00:13:19.760 they applied that law
00:13:21.600 to the organizers
00:13:22.940 of the pro-Hamas rallies
00:13:25.140 in this city
00:13:26.160 week after week?
00:13:27.440 They did not.
00:13:28.760 The police were not
00:13:29.760 even visible
00:13:30.440 in those rallies.
00:13:31.560 They were hidden away
00:13:32.540 lest they give offense.
00:13:34.300 I think it's incredibly
00:13:35.340 important
00:13:35.880 that you stand up here
00:13:37.140 not just for Tommy Robinson
00:13:38.980 and not just for yourselves
00:13:40.800 but for the great legacy
00:13:43.540 that you have inherited
00:13:44.740 from generations
00:13:45.740 that came before you.
00:13:47.740 So many lives
00:13:49.440 were lost
00:13:50.020 over so many centuries
00:13:51.380 to give Britain
00:13:52.840 a legal system
00:13:53.820 that everyone
00:13:54.840 could trust and love.
00:13:56.940 And let me close
00:13:57.660 with one last point
00:13:58.540 before I give the microphone back.
00:14:00.980 There are some people
00:14:02.320 who would drive
00:14:03.060 Tommy Robinson
00:14:03.940 out of the establishment,
00:14:05.440 out of the mainstream,
00:14:06.600 who would ban him
00:14:07.720 from having rallies.
00:14:09.480 But Tommy Robinson
00:14:10.580 in my view
00:14:11.280 is necessary
00:14:12.240 to keep hundreds
00:14:13.680 of thousands,
00:14:14.720 maybe millions
00:14:15.460 of people
00:14:16.240 involved
00:14:17.580 in the system.
00:14:18.760 if he is kept out,
00:14:21.460 people will give up
00:14:22.380 on the system.
00:14:23.220 They'll give up
00:14:23.880 on the freedom.
00:14:26.680 Keep standing for freedom.
00:14:28.360 Keep fighting for freedom.
00:14:29.560 Thank you, everybody.
00:14:30.300 I know I mentioned it,
00:14:33.920 but I just got to mention it
00:14:34.920 one more time.
00:14:36.260 Today,
00:14:36.740 Tommy debuted
00:14:37.460 his new documentary
00:14:38.540 and you can see
00:14:40.460 sort of a movie-style poster
00:14:42.160 behind me.
00:14:43.220 Tommy Robinson presents
00:14:44.420 Lawfare,
00:14:46.080 a totalitarian state
00:14:47.800 in association
00:14:49.080 with UrbanScoop.News.
00:14:51.040 That's his new organization.
00:14:52.060 So he rolled out
00:14:55.120 his new documentary
00:14:56.020 on that huge screen
00:14:58.140 behind me there.
00:15:00.460 And let me just say
00:15:01.100 the name again
00:15:01.720 with a subtitle,
00:15:02.820 A Totalitarian State.
00:15:04.380 And literally
00:15:05.260 20 feet away
00:15:06.740 is that
00:15:08.700 totalitarian state.
00:15:11.120 Why are they
00:15:12.300 in a line
00:15:13.820 with their riot gear?
00:15:14.960 Why are they
00:15:15.520 having their combat
00:15:16.620 helmets in their hands?
00:15:18.640 There was a helicopter.
00:15:19.900 I don't see it now.
00:15:20.900 Why?
00:15:22.340 Now, granted,
00:15:23.540 they can't be seen
00:15:24.600 by that crowd,
00:15:25.380 but these were
00:15:25.880 riot cops elsewhere.
00:15:27.840 There's moms and dads
00:15:29.040 and grandmas and grandpas
00:15:30.280 and kids in pens
00:15:31.340 and wheelchairs.
00:15:32.480 It's the most
00:15:33.040 peaceful civilian group
00:15:34.980 you'll ever meet.
00:15:36.200 I showed you the flags.
00:15:38.000 They're flags
00:15:38.780 of national patriotism.
00:15:41.080 The Union Jack
00:15:42.020 or Union Flag
00:15:42.800 as it's called.
00:15:43.980 And the different flags
00:15:45.200 of the different countries
00:15:46.100 in the UK.
00:15:47.160 England,
00:15:47.900 Wales,
00:15:48.520 Scotland.
00:15:49.740 I don't know
00:15:50.360 what the Northern Irish
00:15:51.340 flag looks like,
00:15:52.480 but it may be near too.
00:15:53.780 I saw some stars
00:15:54.580 of David.
00:15:57.260 Homemade signs.
00:15:58.760 Very, very peaceful.
00:15:59.940 So you look
00:16:00.520 at this authoritarian response
00:16:02.240 that was not there
00:16:03.600 for the Socialist Workers Party
00:16:05.120 where they said,
00:16:06.400 smash fascists.
00:16:08.560 They don't get
00:16:09.380 this sort of scare tactic.
00:16:12.000 But of course,
00:16:12.580 the main abuse
00:16:13.800 was invoking
00:16:15.220 the Terrorism Act
00:16:16.700 to sweep
00:16:17.780 Tommy Robinson
00:16:19.020 off the streets
00:16:19.980 today.
00:16:21.160 And the more
00:16:22.060 I think about it,
00:16:22.740 what irks me
00:16:23.580 is that unless
00:16:25.740 I missed it,
00:16:26.480 and I may have
00:16:27.300 because I'm based
00:16:28.300 in Canada,
00:16:29.380 but unless I missed it,
00:16:31.100 there was no question
00:16:32.420 in question period
00:16:33.380 about it.
00:16:34.620 There's been no statement
00:16:35.780 by any political
00:16:37.060 activist that I know of.
00:16:39.100 There's been no statement
00:16:40.380 by a media
00:16:41.380 or a journalism group
00:16:42.620 or a civil liberties group
00:16:45.020 about Tommy Robinson,
00:16:47.860 a citizen journalist,
00:16:49.740 being arrested
00:16:51.340 because he won't
00:16:52.500 give his cell phone
00:16:53.460 to him
00:16:53.920 to police.
00:16:57.200 Tommy Robinson's
00:16:58.000 not a terrorist.
00:16:59.520 The law was
00:17:00.180 inappropriately applied
00:17:01.340 to him.
00:17:02.820 He didn't give
00:17:03.480 the password
00:17:04.000 because he has
00:17:04.800 confidential material
00:17:06.180 on his phone,
00:17:07.340 including confidential
00:17:08.360 journalistic material,
00:17:10.020 confidential legal
00:17:11.080 material,
00:17:12.060 and for the police
00:17:13.220 to simply demand
00:17:14.240 his phone
00:17:14.780 and the password.
00:17:15.620 They took his phone
00:17:16.320 by force.
00:17:17.360 He wouldn't give
00:17:17.960 the password,
00:17:19.120 so they arrested him
00:17:20.460 for that,
00:17:21.560 and everyone here
00:17:22.440 is just cool with that.
00:17:24.360 Would they be cool
00:17:25.120 with it if it happened
00:17:25.860 to a regime journalist
00:17:27.180 at the BBC
00:17:28.280 or the Times of London?
00:17:30.300 Of course not.
00:17:31.840 And that's the problem
00:17:32.860 because the rule of law
00:17:33.960 means no one's above the law
00:17:35.320 and no one's below the law.
00:17:37.100 And just like
00:17:38.660 fancy-pants
00:17:39.620 high-ranking politicians
00:17:43.860 must answer
00:17:45.340 to justice,
00:17:47.360 no one's above the law,
00:17:49.020 no one should be
00:17:49.740 beneath the law.
00:17:50.860 And Tommy Robinson
00:17:51.720 has been treated
00:17:52.420 beneath the law
00:17:53.300 and his thousands
00:17:54.600 of supporters
00:17:55.400 have been too.
00:17:56.640 That's the main story
00:17:58.320 today,
00:17:59.440 is that civil liberties
00:18:00.800 were violated
00:18:01.920 and the establishment
00:18:04.220 doesn't care,
00:18:05.860 the media doesn't care,
00:18:07.740 only the people
00:18:08.860 on the street here care,
00:18:10.720 and I don't know
00:18:11.260 if that's enough.
00:18:15.060 If you want to support
00:18:16.140 my journalism,
00:18:17.200 go to TommyTrial.com.
00:18:19.900 I just flew in
00:18:20.640 on an Economy Class
00:18:21.740 air ticket.
00:18:22.640 I'm staying at
00:18:23.200 an Economy Hotel,
00:18:24.260 but odds are
00:18:25.260 the cost will come up
00:18:26.280 to about $1,500.
00:18:27.480 If you can help out,
00:18:28.680 go to TommyTrial.com.
00:18:29.940 Thanks.
00:18:30.500 Well, that was my day
00:18:31.740 in London
00:18:32.380 on Saturday,
00:18:33.700 October 26th,
00:18:34.600 with Tommy Robinson's rally,
00:18:36.960 a peaceful rally,
00:18:38.540 lots of patriotic flags.
00:18:40.680 I don't think
00:18:41.360 we have rallies
00:18:42.280 like that in Canada,
00:18:43.420 at least I can't
00:18:44.080 really think of any.
00:18:45.360 We have rallies
00:18:46.020 around political candidates,
00:18:47.560 but do we have rallies
00:18:48.980 for abstract ideas
00:18:50.240 like freedom?
00:18:51.140 I mean,
00:18:51.660 obviously they're not
00:18:52.400 very abstract,
00:18:53.240 they affect us every day,
00:18:54.840 but would people
00:18:55.920 come out to a
00:18:56.760 non-partisan march
00:18:58.100 or rally
00:18:59.000 or protest
00:18:59.820 for freedom?
00:19:00.900 I don't quite know.
00:19:02.160 I was touched
00:19:02.800 when I was in
00:19:03.400 Sao Paulo, Brazil,
00:19:04.660 and 200,000 people
00:19:06.400 showed up
00:19:06.980 for freedom of speech.
00:19:08.700 Pretty incredible.
00:19:09.960 Anyways,
00:19:10.340 that was Saturday.
00:19:12.040 Then there was Sunday,
00:19:13.180 and today, Monday,
00:19:14.240 what a day,
00:19:14.880 Tommy Robinson
00:19:15.660 was on trial.
00:19:17.760 He was arrested
00:19:18.420 and presented a court
00:19:19.800 in Woolwich Crown Court.
00:19:22.580 Here's how that went today.
00:19:24.460 Ezra Levant here
00:19:25.100 for Rebel News.
00:19:25.680 I'm in East London
00:19:26.720 in front of
00:19:27.280 Woolwich Crown Court.
00:19:29.500 This is the court
00:19:30.700 in which Tommy Robinson
00:19:31.960 will find his fate
00:19:34.040 for the accusation
00:19:36.920 of contempt of court.
00:19:38.780 And if he is found
00:19:40.460 in contempt,
00:19:41.740 well,
00:19:42.120 just a few hundred feet
00:19:43.480 that way
00:19:44.200 is the most serious prison
00:19:46.760 in all of the United Kingdom.
00:19:47.940 It's called
00:19:48.340 HMP Belmarsh.
00:19:50.140 It's really the Guantanamo Bay
00:19:51.720 of the United Kingdom.
00:19:52.600 The fact that they chose
00:19:54.600 this court to try him,
00:19:56.680 which has,
00:19:57.340 I understand,
00:19:57.840 an underground tunnel
00:19:58.900 connecting it
00:19:59.540 to the prison,
00:20:00.460 tells me that could be his fate.
00:20:02.560 Contempt of court
00:20:03.220 is a funny animal.
00:20:05.340 It's not a criminal prosecution
00:20:07.180 in this case.
00:20:08.080 What it is
00:20:08.540 is the judge
00:20:09.400 wants Tommy Robinson
00:20:11.160 to submit
00:20:12.020 to the judge's authority.
00:20:13.940 And the subject matter
00:20:15.300 over which they're quarreling
00:20:16.320 is that
00:20:16.840 a Syrian migrant
00:20:18.780 sued Tommy
00:20:19.940 for defamation
00:20:21.100 and he won.
00:20:23.060 Tommy made a film
00:20:24.220 about facts
00:20:24.960 that he thought
00:20:25.440 the judge didn't consider
00:20:26.700 and published that film
00:20:28.180 on Twitter.
00:20:29.160 55 million views.
00:20:31.560 He also showed it
00:20:32.260 to tens of thousands
00:20:32.960 of people
00:20:33.440 in central London
00:20:34.560 at a rally.
00:20:35.880 So you have a showdown here
00:20:37.300 between a judge
00:20:38.600 and a community activist,
00:20:41.860 both of whom
00:20:42.860 are, I suppose,
00:20:44.720 stubborn in their own way.
00:20:46.720 At the end of the day,
00:20:47.900 though,
00:20:48.080 the judge is the one
00:20:49.040 with the power.
00:20:49.920 And it'll be interesting
00:20:51.040 to see how this ends.
00:20:53.460 It is not standard
00:20:54.900 for people to be jailed
00:20:56.200 for contempt.
00:20:57.960 In fact,
00:20:58.280 I read dozens of cases
00:20:59.800 the last time
00:21:01.400 Tommy was brought up
00:21:02.560 on contempt charges.
00:21:04.220 And in every case,
00:21:05.820 the judge is happy
00:21:07.000 for the accused person
00:21:09.180 to sort of express regret
00:21:11.880 and to come back
00:21:13.560 to the law.
00:21:14.400 But Tommy,
00:21:16.140 one of the reasons
00:21:16.920 he's popular
00:21:18.140 and successful
00:21:18.860 and one of the reasons
00:21:19.540 he's inspirational
00:21:20.340 to his followers
00:21:21.180 is precisely
00:21:22.480 that he does not
00:21:23.260 bend the knee.
00:21:24.720 So I'm afraid
00:21:25.600 what we have here
00:21:26.400 is a rock
00:21:27.100 and a hard place
00:21:27.760 or an irresistible force
00:21:29.680 and an immovable object.
00:21:32.160 And other than
00:21:34.200 Tommy Robinson himself,
00:21:35.900 I don't think
00:21:36.840 a journalist
00:21:37.580 has been imprisoned
00:21:38.840 in the UK
00:21:39.420 for contempt
00:21:40.260 since I think
00:21:41.420 the 1940s.
00:21:42.640 It's really
00:21:43.360 an astonishing thing.
00:21:45.220 That same prison
00:21:46.080 is where Julian Assange
00:21:48.000 was kept in jail,
00:21:49.540 not on contempt charges
00:21:50.940 on other matters.
00:21:52.540 And I think
00:21:53.760 the United Kingdom
00:21:54.480 is losing
00:21:55.060 some of its reputation
00:21:56.200 as a place
00:21:57.200 for freedom of the press.
00:21:58.100 The UK is really
00:21:58.760 the place that invented
00:21:59.740 freedom of the press.
00:22:01.280 John Milton
00:22:01.720 in his classic book
00:22:03.360 Areopagitica
00:22:04.260 about the reasons
00:22:05.240 for free speech
00:22:06.340 was really an inspiration
00:22:07.680 for freedom
00:22:08.240 around the world,
00:22:08.800 including in the United States
00:22:10.460 of America
00:22:10.900 and obviously in Canada
00:22:12.120 and other Commonwealth countries.
00:22:13.740 I'm worried
00:22:14.620 that there's more
00:22:15.600 and more censorship
00:22:16.480 and under the Labour government
00:22:18.640 of Keir Starmer,
00:22:19.740 people have been jailed
00:22:21.260 just for making
00:22:22.480 insulting tweets.
00:22:24.380 We don't want
00:22:24.980 to be insulting in life.
00:22:26.020 It's not the best way to be.
00:22:27.040 But the punishment
00:22:27.700 of jailing people
00:22:28.840 for politically incorrect tweets
00:22:30.420 seems astonishing to me.
00:22:32.200 And they're just getting started.
00:22:34.100 I can't put this all
00:22:35.200 on the head
00:22:35.580 of the Labour government,
00:22:36.260 of course.
00:22:36.920 This was going on
00:22:38.200 for the 14 years previous
00:22:39.260 when the Tories were in power.
00:22:41.020 Anyways,
00:22:41.360 that's a very long scene setter.
00:22:42.860 I wanted to tell you
00:22:44.080 what I was doing here
00:22:44.800 and I wanted to show you
00:22:45.820 the gathered press pack here.
00:22:49.720 One, two, three, four, five,
00:22:51.260 six, seven, eight.
00:22:51.940 Now, over a dozen journalists.
00:22:54.840 I don't recognize many of them.
00:22:56.180 And this is just
00:22:56.800 the camera crew side.
00:22:58.900 Obviously, we won't be able
00:22:59.780 to take cameras into the court.
00:23:01.120 That's not the British tradition.
00:23:02.700 So this is obviously
00:23:03.760 a very major media event.
00:23:06.440 The reason I came in
00:23:07.600 from Canada to the UK
00:23:08.720 was first of all,
00:23:09.400 Tommy asked me to say
00:23:10.720 a few words at his rally
00:23:11.680 on Saturday, which I did.
00:23:13.380 But what I'm worried about
00:23:14.880 is what I'm always worried
00:23:15.880 about here in the UK
00:23:16.780 is that the mainstream media
00:23:19.160 or as I sometimes call them,
00:23:20.280 the regime media
00:23:21.580 are so driven
00:23:23.220 by their hatred
00:23:24.420 of Tommy Robinson,
00:23:25.440 either for ideological reasons
00:23:27.120 or class reasons
00:23:28.540 or simply because their bosses
00:23:29.900 tell them
00:23:30.480 we're against Tommy Robinson.
00:23:32.100 I'm worried
00:23:32.560 that despite this
00:23:33.680 massive attendance
00:23:34.520 by the press,
00:23:35.600 they're not going to be
00:23:36.460 accurate reporters of it.
00:23:37.740 So I'm going to be
00:23:39.040 live tweeting
00:23:39.840 the proceedings
00:23:40.900 on Twitter
00:23:41.860 or X as it's now called.
00:23:43.400 And you can follow
00:23:44.180 all my tweets there.
00:23:44.940 I'm also going to compile them
00:23:46.280 and do little video updates
00:23:47.820 like this
00:23:48.340 on a special website
00:23:49.580 we've set up
00:23:50.140 called
00:23:50.480 TommyTrial.com.
00:23:53.680 I should tell you
00:23:56.580 one more thing
00:23:57.160 about a week
00:23:58.940 before
00:23:59.860 today,
00:24:01.720 the hearing today,
00:24:03.220 Tommy had not yet
00:24:04.480 instructed legal counsel
00:24:05.920 and I was astonished
00:24:07.440 to hear that
00:24:08.140 and he explained
00:24:09.120 that his bank,
00:24:10.900 which is called
00:24:11.720 TIDE,
00:24:12.520 T-I-D-E
00:24:13.500 bank in the UK,
00:24:15.060 seized his bank account
00:24:16.500 and froze
00:24:17.560 the funds
00:24:18.560 that had been raised
00:24:19.860 specifically the purpose
00:24:20.900 of hiring a lawyer.
00:24:21.600 Can you imagine
00:24:22.380 that outrageous
00:24:23.720 interference
00:24:24.580 in a judicial process
00:24:26.000 to deny a man
00:24:27.400 a lawyer?
00:24:27.900 Even terrorists
00:24:28.780 in that prison
00:24:29.440 is full of them.
00:24:30.380 Even terrorists
00:24:31.080 in the UK
00:24:31.560 get a lawyer
00:24:32.280 often paid for
00:24:33.460 by the taxpayer.
00:24:34.900 So we crowdfunded,
00:24:36.800 we set up an emergency
00:24:37.900 crowdfunding campaign
00:24:39.100 for Tommy
00:24:39.560 and I'm pleased to say
00:24:40.380 we were able
00:24:40.840 to put together
00:24:41.420 enough money
00:24:41.940 to hire
00:24:43.080 a really senior
00:24:44.520 barrister
00:24:45.700 as they're called
00:24:46.400 here in the UK.
00:24:47.040 Her name is
00:24:47.880 Sasha Wasse KC,
00:24:50.060 King's Counsel.
00:24:51.660 She's very senior.
00:24:52.560 She's actually
00:24:52.980 a part-time judge
00:24:54.000 as well as a lawyer.
00:24:55.180 I'm not quite sure
00:24:55.780 how that works
00:24:56.300 but they do that
00:24:56.980 here in the UK.
00:24:58.380 She's very famous
00:24:59.200 for defending
00:24:59.880 the Sun tabloid newspaper
00:25:01.500 against Johnny Depp
00:25:02.520 when he sued them
00:25:04.020 in defamation
00:25:05.160 and she won.
00:25:06.280 So she's no stranger
00:25:07.280 to high profile
00:25:08.280 and even controversial cases
00:25:09.660 and from what I can tell
00:25:12.200 about her,
00:25:12.640 she's a winner.
00:25:13.820 But I say again
00:25:14.920 the central fact
00:25:16.320 of today's hearing
00:25:17.040 will be
00:25:17.500 does Tommy Robinson
00:25:18.900 submit to the authority
00:25:20.980 of the judge?
00:25:22.480 And I've known Tommy
00:25:23.620 for a long enough time
00:25:24.620 to think that
00:25:25.280 the man will not
00:25:26.640 bend the knee
00:25:27.200 so I'm afraid
00:25:28.200 that if things go
00:25:29.820 as I think they will
00:25:30.620 Tommy Robinson
00:25:31.360 will be found
00:25:32.100 in contempt of court
00:25:32.960 and I think
00:25:34.620 the location
00:25:35.500 of this courthouse
00:25:36.760 is a premonition
00:25:37.940 of what will happen
00:25:39.200 to him.
00:25:40.120 He has asked me
00:25:41.220 if he is jailed
00:25:42.420 to check up on him
00:25:43.440 from time to time
00:25:44.280 to ensure his prison
00:25:45.620 treatment is acceptable
00:25:47.240 as you know
00:25:47.840 that in previous
00:25:48.460 incarcerations
00:25:49.320 Tommy was put in prisons
00:25:50.960 with a very high
00:25:52.080 Muslim population
00:25:53.100 where Muslim gangs
00:25:54.300 sort of ruled the place
00:25:55.900 and of course
00:25:56.760 Tommy Robinson
00:25:57.540 is considered an enemy
00:25:58.920 by radical Islam
00:26:00.560 and he would be
00:26:01.720 in physical jeopardy
00:26:02.820 in other prisons
00:26:03.460 he was made to go
00:26:04.780 into solitary confinement
00:26:05.840 into the hole
00:26:06.500 for his own safety.
00:26:08.860 At Belmarsh Prison
00:26:09.820 there is sort of
00:26:10.580 a special handling unit
00:26:11.640 where he'll be able
00:26:12.680 to be safe
00:26:13.780 where he will come
00:26:14.800 into contact
00:26:15.420 with no other prisoners
00:26:16.800 he'll get a daily visit
00:26:17.880 from the prison warden
00:26:19.440 or governor
00:26:19.900 as they're called here
00:26:20.660 a daily visit
00:26:21.640 from the prison doctor
00:26:22.560 or nurse
00:26:22.960 but it will actually
00:26:24.400 be a very solitary existence
00:26:25.660 if you have a brief meeting
00:26:27.740 with two prison staff
00:26:28.900 once a day
00:26:29.720 and have some exercise time
00:26:31.000 but you're literally
00:26:31.980 in contact
00:26:32.620 with no one else
00:26:33.420 I think you could go mad
00:26:34.880 a little bit
00:26:35.320 I think solitary confinement
00:26:36.420 is a kind of torture
00:26:37.740 and you could see
00:26:38.320 what that did
00:26:38.860 to the mental health
00:26:39.680 of Julian Assange
00:26:40.940 so this is a very interesting case
00:26:43.160 and a very troubling one
00:26:44.100 and I regret to say
00:26:45.480 I'm not optimistic
00:26:46.360 that the press pack
00:26:48.040 that's gathered here
00:26:48.860 will be fair
00:26:49.560 in their coverage
00:26:50.200 in fact I think
00:26:51.300 some of them
00:26:51.640 will be diabolical
00:26:52.600 in their hatred
00:26:53.240 you've heard of
00:26:53.760 Trump derangement syndrome
00:26:55.860 a lot of journalists have it
00:26:58.140 they just loathe Trump
00:26:59.220 with every essence
00:27:00.820 of their being
00:27:01.380 I think there's a
00:27:02.020 Tommy derangement syndrome
00:27:03.960 TDS
00:27:04.600 and I think a lot
00:27:05.620 of journalists have it
00:27:06.480 but anyways
00:27:06.980 we're here a little bit early
00:27:08.380 as a lot of people are
00:27:09.500 I'm going to be
00:27:10.000 live tweeting
00:27:10.580 from inside the court
00:27:11.500 to stay in touch
00:27:13.120 with all of my stories
00:27:14.240 on this
00:27:14.580 follow me on Twitter
00:27:15.300 at Ezra Levant
00:27:16.040 or go to
00:27:17.160 TommyTrial.com
00:27:19.180 now I flew into the UK
00:27:20.520 on an economy class
00:27:22.040 ticket from Canada
00:27:22.740 and I'm staying
00:27:23.300 in a teeny tiny hotel
00:27:25.380 in London
00:27:25.980 but it's still expensive
00:27:26.920 if you can chip in
00:27:28.160 to help me crowdfund
00:27:29.180 the cost of my journey
00:27:30.680 I'd be grateful
00:27:31.260 you can do that
00:27:31.880 at TommyTrial.com
00:27:33.020 as well
00:27:33.840 alright I'll keep you posted
00:27:34.980 Ezra Levant here
00:27:36.360 it's just after noon
00:27:37.660 in London
00:27:38.820 we're in the east side
00:27:40.580 of London
00:27:41.000 at the Woolwich Crown Court
00:27:44.840 which abuts Belmarsh
00:27:46.980 the highest security prison
00:27:48.540 in the land
00:27:49.080 Tommy Robinson
00:27:50.400 was found
00:27:51.780 to be in contempt
00:27:53.380 of court
00:27:53.920 he was given
00:27:54.940 a sentence
00:27:55.520 of 18 months
00:27:57.000 less 3 days
00:27:58.360 of which half
00:27:59.560 will be served
00:28:00.380 let me do the math
00:28:01.900 for you
00:28:02.320 just under 9 months
00:28:04.560 Tommy will serve
00:28:05.860 in the Guantanamo Bay
00:28:07.580 of the UK
00:28:08.320 the harshest prison
00:28:09.500 the prison
00:28:10.360 with the terrorists
00:28:11.220 the prison
00:28:11.720 with the murderers
00:28:12.580 Tommy Robinson
00:28:13.720 will spend
00:28:14.840 9 months there
00:28:16.540 because he published
00:28:18.240 the film
00:28:19.240 silenced
00:28:20.200 taking on the judiciary
00:28:21.940 and censorship
00:28:22.820 it's so ironic
00:28:24.140 it is not a criminal conviction
00:28:25.380 let me be crystal clear
00:28:26.480 Tommy Robinson
00:28:27.620 was accused
00:28:28.260 of no crime
00:28:29.180 he did not profit
00:28:30.680 in any way
00:28:31.280 there was no subterfuge
00:28:32.660 he simply was motivated
00:28:34.420 to tell his side
00:28:35.680 of the story
00:28:36.420 about an atrocious
00:28:38.420 case of injustice
00:28:40.620 and because he did so
00:28:42.860 counter to a judge's order
00:28:45.180 he will now spend
00:28:46.700 9 months in prison
00:28:48.280 with murderers
00:28:50.500 and terrorists
00:28:51.540 in isolation
00:28:53.280 to be kept safe
00:28:54.980 from the Islamic gangs
00:28:56.640 that run the prisons
00:28:58.000 in the UK
00:28:58.620 Tommy will be sent
00:29:00.060 to Belmarsh
00:29:00.720 in the special
00:29:01.380 handling unit
00:29:02.780 right there
00:29:03.880 is an atrocious
00:29:06.520 condemnation
00:29:07.480 of the state
00:29:08.300 of affairs
00:29:08.700 in the UK
00:29:09.200 they have lost
00:29:10.340 control of their own prisons
00:29:11.560 so they have to put
00:29:12.740 a journalist
00:29:13.220 in solitary confinement
00:29:14.580 to protect him
00:29:15.660 and just turn the camera
00:29:16.460 over there
00:29:17.000 look at all those
00:29:17.960 cops who are here
00:29:18.900 look at all the cops
00:29:20.020 here and look at
00:29:20.660 all the cops there
00:29:21.600 this is the two-tier
00:29:23.400 justice
00:29:23.900 that Tommy Robinson
00:29:24.920 has been railing
00:29:25.920 against
00:29:26.700 a journalist
00:29:27.980 sent to prison
00:29:29.260 9 months
00:29:30.780 hard time
00:29:31.700 in Belmarsh
00:29:32.640 you probably have
00:29:33.680 50 cops here
00:29:34.780 for what?
00:29:36.660 did they think
00:29:37.380 that there was
00:29:37.880 going to be a riot
00:29:38.700 of indigenous
00:29:39.320 British people?
00:29:40.680 what exactly?
00:29:41.840 they arrested Tommy
00:29:43.140 under the terrorism act
00:29:44.420 did they think
00:29:44.880 he's a terrorist?
00:29:46.060 I think the United Kingdom
00:29:47.520 has an embarrassment
00:29:48.880 on its hand
00:29:49.620 but it doesn't know
00:29:50.520 to be embarrassed
00:29:51.300 I put it to you
00:29:52.540 there won't be a single
00:29:53.560 mainstream media journalist
00:29:55.040 who finds any of this
00:29:56.300 upsetting
00:29:57.120 and I know that
00:29:58.100 because not a single
00:29:59.060 one of them were upset
00:29:59.800 when Tommy was arrested
00:30:00.780 had his phone taken
00:30:02.060 by police
00:30:02.680 and was jailed
00:30:03.640 because he didn't
00:30:04.160 give them the password
00:30:04.920 I believe that England
00:30:06.780 which used to be the
00:30:08.120 crucible of freedom
00:30:10.000 of speech
00:30:10.520 it was the role model
00:30:11.760 for commonwealth countries
00:30:13.840 around the world
00:30:14.540 it is now losing
00:30:15.980 its freedom of speech
00:30:17.100 you know the other day
00:30:18.800 Elon Musk remarked
00:30:20.180 that he didn't want to
00:30:21.560 come to the United Kingdom
00:30:22.600 because he was worried
00:30:23.480 he might be arrested
00:30:24.280 for his tweets
00:30:25.040 today's nine month
00:30:27.460 prison term
00:30:28.200 for Tommy Robinson
00:30:29.120 suggests that
00:30:30.340 Elon Musk
00:30:30.940 is right about that
00:30:31.980 to see all my reports
00:30:33.780 on this outrageous subject
00:30:35.400 go to TommyTrial.com
00:30:38.040 and let me say
00:30:39.000 one last thing
00:30:39.680 I made a promise
00:30:40.420 to Tommy
00:30:40.980 that I would visit him
00:30:42.360 in Belmarsh Prison
00:30:43.540 on a regular basis
00:30:44.540 to ensure
00:30:45.500 that his treatment
00:30:46.460 is satisfactory
00:30:47.720 now you cannot have
00:30:48.740 any satisfactory treatment
00:30:50.320 in solitary confinement
00:30:51.640 but I did promise him
00:30:53.120 that I would fly over
00:30:54.440 and visit him
00:30:55.160 and I intend
00:30:55.720 to keep that promise
00:30:56.660 we also as you know
00:30:58.000 crowdfunded his lawyers
00:30:59.320 and any surplus
00:31:00.400 I don't know
00:31:00.860 if there will be one
00:31:01.640 any surplus
00:31:02.500 will go to his kids
00:31:03.900 I'm outraged
00:31:04.900 by what's going on
00:31:05.660 but I intend
00:31:06.140 to continue to cover it
00:31:07.060 as long as I'm allowed to
00:31:08.020 I should tell you
00:31:08.820 that when the judge
00:31:10.000 I was live tweeting
00:31:11.100 from the court all day
00:31:12.280 that when the judge
00:31:13.200 finally uttered his remarks
00:31:15.220 a security guard
00:31:17.920 came in
00:31:18.380 and told me
00:31:18.920 to close my computer
00:31:20.000 and that I would be in trouble
00:31:21.640 if I continued
00:31:22.300 to live tweet
00:31:22.960 what the hell was that
00:31:24.280 at the apex of the day
00:31:26.360 I had been tweeting
00:31:27.260 in there for two hours
00:31:28.320 at the apex of the day
00:31:29.400 some little security guard
00:31:30.800 orders me to close my laptop
00:31:32.680 or I'll be in trouble
00:31:33.800 welcome to the United Kingdom
00:31:35.200 in 2024
00:31:35.940 oh I meant to say 1984
00:31:38.280 go to TommyTrial.com
00:31:40.220 for all my coverage
00:31:41.120 Ezra Levant here
00:31:43.740 with Rebel News
00:31:44.480 a gentleman
00:31:45.180 who I've been following online
00:31:46.680 and I finally met today
00:31:47.900 Niak Ghorbani
00:31:49.320 who's been a very courageous
00:31:50.620 person on the streets
00:31:52.360 and on Twitter
00:31:53.100 he defies the pro-Hamas
00:31:55.360 terrorist
00:31:56.120 with his sign
00:31:57.460 Niak what a pleasure
00:31:58.460 to meet you in person
00:31:59.200 thank you so much
00:32:00.320 you hold up a sign
00:32:01.780 that says Hamas is terrorist
00:32:03.160 and every time
00:32:04.340 the cops go after you
00:32:05.700 instead of the Hamas people
00:32:07.040 yeah
00:32:08.100 actually
00:32:08.820 I'm not feeling
00:32:10.640 really safe
00:32:12.040 after this court
00:32:12.920 you know
00:32:13.340 you're living in this country
00:32:16.280 you feel
00:32:17.180 you are
00:32:18.280 in
00:32:19.380 free country
00:32:20.740 but you are not
00:32:21.700 you know
00:32:22.760 I'm
00:32:23.260 just
00:32:24.400 just telling to myself
00:32:26.340 in court
00:32:27.000 it's just
00:32:28.300 just
00:32:28.840 just because
00:32:30.020 showing the truth
00:32:31.140 I'm
00:32:32.180 I'm doing that same
00:32:33.620 you know
00:32:34.020 you're clearly shocked
00:32:35.360 by this
00:32:35.700 I was delighted to meet you
00:32:36.780 and so I was upbeat
00:32:37.600 for a moment
00:32:38.160 but you're obviously
00:32:39.260 still digesting
00:32:40.440 what we just heard in there
00:32:41.420 Tommy Robinson
00:32:42.340 sentenced to 18 years
00:32:43.860 last three days
00:32:44.680 it'll be cut in half
00:32:46.060 he'll serve nine months
00:32:47.520 that's an astonishing sentence
00:32:49.240 for
00:32:49.880 for the non-crime
00:32:51.880 it wasn't a criminal offense
00:32:52.940 of journalism
00:32:53.800 you seem a little bit
00:32:55.140 rocked by this
00:32:56.260 exactly
00:32:56.720 I'm a journalist
00:32:57.680 I'm an activist
00:32:58.540 same as
00:32:59.340 you know
00:32:59.840 Tommy
00:33:00.240 you know
00:33:01.060 it's really
00:33:02.060 really
00:33:02.580 I don't understand
00:33:04.420 how
00:33:05.680 it's
00:33:06.600 possible
00:33:07.420 in this country
00:33:09.280 in the United Kingdom
00:33:11.700 how
00:33:13.000 it's possible
00:33:14.020 they
00:33:14.840 made
00:33:15.820 made
00:33:16.620 someone
00:33:17.380 guilty
00:33:18.040 just
00:33:19.180 because
00:33:19.940 they want
00:33:20.620 now
00:33:21.540 you
00:33:21.920 you're from
00:33:22.700 Iran
00:33:23.240 originally
00:33:23.940 compare
00:33:24.880 the treatment
00:33:25.800 of journalists
00:33:26.740 in Iran
00:33:27.280 with the treatment
00:33:28.280 of journalists
00:33:29.020 in the United Kingdom
00:33:30.440 same as here
00:33:31.200 exactly
00:33:32.300 I'm feeling
00:33:33.200 live in
00:33:34.420 Islamic Republic
00:33:35.540 sad
00:33:37.520 is it
00:33:38.420 totally sad
00:33:39.660 I can see
00:33:41.220 your sorrow
00:33:41.640 I can see it
00:33:42.120 in your face
00:33:42.640 I suppose
00:33:43.240 I have
00:33:43.680 pre-digested
00:33:44.760 this outcome
00:33:45.720 because I've been
00:33:46.340 talking to Tommy
00:33:47.180 frequently over the
00:33:48.220 last week or two
00:33:48.960 so I think I've already
00:33:50.080 gone through the process
00:33:51.100 you are
00:33:51.500 it's actually quite
00:33:52.560 moving to see you
00:33:53.880 I was looking down
00:33:55.240 from the public gallery
00:33:56.500 you were in the
00:33:57.160 courtroom
00:33:57.600 the judge
00:33:59.240 seemed to me
00:34:00.180 like he had
00:34:00.720 pre-written this ruling
00:34:01.780 like we
00:34:02.160 we just went through
00:34:03.300 this very lengthy
00:34:04.140 and detailed presentation
00:34:04.980 and he starts reading
00:34:06.220 from his computer
00:34:06.960 a verdict
00:34:07.440 without
00:34:08.600 there wasn't even
00:34:09.340 a one minute break
00:34:10.160 he had pre-written
00:34:11.720 certain things
00:34:12.680 at least that's how
00:34:13.360 it looked to me
00:34:14.120 absolutely
00:34:15.780 everyone who was
00:34:17.640 in court
00:34:18.360 and seen the judge
00:34:19.760 that was
00:34:21.900 pre-assessment
00:34:23.460 he just
00:34:24.820 read
00:34:25.460 he just read
00:34:26.580 read the order
00:34:27.480 he read the order
00:34:29.400 that was on his computer
00:34:30.960 and I could see
00:34:32.140 his fingers
00:34:32.680 that he was scrolling
00:34:33.440 down as he was reading it
00:34:34.520 immediately after hearing
00:34:37.080 an enormous amount
00:34:38.140 of detailed
00:34:38.620 argument
00:34:39.180 from the lawyers
00:34:41.120 that's very fishy
00:34:42.740 yeah
00:34:43.480 absolutely
00:34:44.700 it's
00:34:45.520 as I'm saying
00:34:46.480 here
00:34:47.280 judge
00:34:48.560 come and
00:34:49.200 read the order
00:34:50.160 that's it
00:34:51.000 nothing else
00:34:52.040 thank you so much
00:34:52.800 Niaq
00:34:53.140 keep fighting for freedom
00:34:53.960 on the streets
00:34:54.520 I salute your courage
00:34:55.740 and I feel your sorrow
00:34:57.180 today
00:34:57.520 and if I'm to a beat
00:34:58.800 well it's just
00:35:00.160 because I'm meeting you
00:35:00.920 actually
00:35:01.400 and I've had
00:35:03.480 I've been weighing
00:35:05.200 these weighty matters
00:35:06.540 for some time now
00:35:07.380 thank you for standing
00:35:08.180 by Tommy here today
00:35:09.120 my pleasure
00:35:10.160 we are not stopped
00:35:11.680 we are fighting
00:35:12.900 fight
00:35:13.860 fight
00:35:14.360 fight
00:35:14.740 as Tommy said
00:35:15.800 Donald Trump said
00:35:17.360 we are
00:35:18.060 we are fighting
00:35:19.220 for our freedom
00:35:20.000 we should be
00:35:21.120 you know
00:35:21.720 thank you so much
00:35:22.560 thank you
00:35:22.860 Niaq Ghorbani
00:35:23.660 a man who loves
00:35:25.320 the freedom
00:35:25.740 of the United Kingdom
00:35:26.440 and you can see
00:35:27.180 the sorrow in his face
00:35:28.400 with Tommy Robinson's
00:35:30.040 sentence today
00:35:30.820 Ezra LeMann
00:35:31.720 I'm standing outside
00:35:32.720 Woolwich Crown Court
00:35:33.960 which is adjacent
00:35:34.720 to the Guantanamo Bay
00:35:36.540 of UK prisons
00:35:37.460 it's called
00:35:37.920 His Majesty's Prison
00:35:39.440 Bellmarsh
00:35:40.100 it's where all the
00:35:40.660 terrorists and murderers go
00:35:41.820 and now a journalist
00:35:43.300 Tommy Robinson
00:35:44.420 will serve
00:35:45.040 a nine month sentence
00:35:47.040 here
00:35:47.220 the judge said
00:35:48.000 he wanted to give Tommy
00:35:49.220 the maximum sentence possible
00:35:51.240 they started at two years
00:35:52.800 but there's various
00:35:53.520 mathematical reasons
00:35:54.660 why it'll be cut down
00:35:55.900 to nine months
00:35:56.380 but think about it
00:35:57.000 nine months of hard time
00:35:59.040 served in the worst
00:36:00.400 prison in the UK
00:36:01.360 in solitary confinement
00:36:03.260 nine months
00:36:04.720 of solitary confinement
00:36:06.820 that's a form of torture
00:36:07.980 solitary confinement
00:36:09.020 is not meant to be used
00:36:10.560 other than a very
00:36:11.300 episodic basis
00:36:12.480 to punish
00:36:13.120 some prison fight
00:36:14.900 or something
00:36:15.520 Tommy Robinson
00:36:16.460 will be put to prison
00:36:17.740 nine months in solitary
00:36:19.140 for what?
00:36:20.500 he was convicted
00:36:21.140 of no crime today
00:36:22.080 he is
00:36:22.460 what happened today
00:36:23.440 was not a crime
00:36:24.300 Tommy Robinson
00:36:25.360 simply produced
00:36:26.880 and published a movie
00:36:27.960 that a judge
00:36:28.820 told him not to
00:36:29.920 it was a quarrel
00:36:30.820 about what a Syrian
00:36:32.280 teenage refugee
00:36:34.100 did or didn't do
00:36:35.140 at a school
00:36:35.820 the refugee says
00:36:37.180 he was bullied
00:36:37.980 other people at the school
00:36:40.000 said that he was
00:36:41.000 the bully
00:36:41.400 there was a dispute
00:36:42.660 Tommy says
00:36:44.220 the truth
00:36:45.060 is that the Syrian
00:36:46.100 kid was roughing up
00:36:47.340 other kids
00:36:47.760 and he interviewed
00:36:48.520 other people at the school
00:36:49.800 and he showed documents
00:36:50.760 from the school
00:36:51.300 to prove it
00:36:52.300 but a judge said
00:36:53.440 that is not true
00:36:54.440 that's disinformation
00:36:56.020 I'm not sure
00:36:56.680 if that's the exact word
00:36:57.600 the judge used
00:36:58.260 but he said to Tommy
00:36:59.420 you may not repeat
00:37:00.580 those facts
00:37:01.240 well Tommy did
00:37:02.140 because he was
00:37:03.120 motivated by journalism
00:37:04.260 he was motivated
00:37:04.980 by the public interest
00:37:05.980 as his lawyer
00:37:06.940 Sasha Wasse said today
00:37:08.180 the judge wasn't
00:37:09.000 having any of it
00:37:09.880 the judge said
00:37:10.680 it was one of the
00:37:11.100 most serious cases
00:37:12.060 deserving of the
00:37:12.920 worst punishment
00:37:13.520 he could meet out
00:37:14.360 nine months in prison
00:37:16.140 for journalism
00:37:16.940 even the courtroom
00:37:18.400 itself was bizarre
00:37:19.440 how they kept out
00:37:20.320 Tommy's supporters
00:37:21.240 even though there were
00:37:22.100 empty seats
00:37:22.760 and bizarrely
00:37:24.040 I was allowed to live tweet
00:37:25.460 the proceedings
00:37:26.120 until the judge
00:37:27.140 started to speak
00:37:27.800 at which point
00:37:28.520 a security guard
00:37:29.300 was dispatched
00:37:30.340 to tell me to stop
00:37:31.600 just absolutely bizarre
00:37:33.680 just the bureaucracy
00:37:35.380 and the red tape
00:37:36.540 of this place
00:37:37.280 is numbing
00:37:39.000 and frustrating
00:37:39.740 it's the banality
00:37:42.420 of authoritarianism
00:37:44.440 you know George Orwell
00:37:46.080 wrote the book
00:37:46.640 1984 more than 70 years ago
00:37:48.920 and the idea
00:37:50.620 that someone
00:37:51.180 would be put in prison
00:37:52.480 for nine months
00:37:54.380 for journalism
00:37:55.960 I don't think
00:37:56.580 would have occurred
00:37:57.140 to him
00:37:57.480 I don't think it did
00:37:58.460 the crazy thing
00:38:00.360 that here in the
00:38:00.960 United Kingdom
00:38:01.540 the new Labour
00:38:02.280 Prime Minister
00:38:02.800 Keir Starmer
00:38:03.440 has released hundreds
00:38:04.880 of violent criminals
00:38:07.020 to make way for
00:38:08.300 political criminals
00:38:09.740 you may have seen
00:38:10.500 the news reports
00:38:11.220 that in recent months
00:38:12.620 dozens of
00:38:14.820 indigenous white
00:38:16.260 working class Brits
00:38:17.360 have been jailed
00:38:18.360 not for violence
00:38:19.400 but for tweeting
00:38:20.640 insults
00:38:21.880 or tweeting
00:38:22.380 mean tweets
00:38:23.340 about racial issues
00:38:25.940 racial crime
00:38:26.720 race riots
00:38:27.440 so Keir Starmer
00:38:28.700 the Labour Prime Minister
00:38:29.560 in the UK
00:38:29.940 has emptied the prisons
00:38:31.520 of actual violent men
00:38:33.740 to make way
00:38:35.160 for these political prisoners
00:38:36.580 and in fact
00:38:37.280 that's exactly
00:38:37.820 what's happened
00:38:38.280 to Tommy
00:38:38.740 he will be
00:38:40.120 in the highest
00:38:40.900 security prison
00:38:41.780 in the entire country
00:38:42.800 a place where
00:38:43.960 murderers and terrorists
00:38:45.940 are
00:38:46.740 that's who's there
00:38:48.340 but they've had to
00:38:49.580 make room for him
00:38:50.640 haven't they
00:38:51.320 have they released
00:38:52.260 a murderer
00:38:52.820 or a terrorist
00:38:53.580 to make room
00:38:54.180 for Tommy Robinson
00:38:55.040 another outrageous act
00:38:57.800 was Tommy was not
00:38:58.940 allowed to attend
00:39:00.900 his rally
00:39:01.920 in London
00:39:03.620 a couple of days ago
00:39:04.480 because he was
00:39:04.940 arrested by police
00:39:05.820 for the sin
00:39:06.680 of not giving
00:39:07.360 the password
00:39:07.940 to his cell phone
00:39:09.140 police seized
00:39:09.880 his cell phone
00:39:10.600 demanded the password
00:39:11.860 to it
00:39:12.260 when Tommy said
00:39:13.400 get a warrant
00:39:14.100 they jailed him
00:39:15.940 and the only reason
00:39:17.820 that they could do
00:39:18.500 that to him
00:39:19.040 is they approached him
00:39:20.320 under the terrorism act
00:39:21.620 there's a ticking
00:39:22.440 time bomb provision
00:39:23.420 where you can
00:39:23.900 do warrantless
00:39:25.540 searches and seizures
00:39:26.580 but only to terrorists
00:39:28.360 so we're in the UK
00:39:29.540 where journalists
00:39:30.660 are treated like terrorists
00:39:31.880 where journalists
00:39:32.840 are jailed like murderers
00:39:34.440 and actual violent
00:39:35.640 criminals are set free
00:39:37.180 I'm very sad
00:39:38.720 about what's happening
00:39:39.620 to the United Kingdom
00:39:40.680 let me say one last thing
00:39:42.460 I mean Tommy Robinson
00:39:43.280 is a divisive figure
00:39:44.540 we know that
00:39:45.160 but in democracy
00:39:47.420 that's how you resolve
00:39:48.320 questions
00:39:48.800 you call the question
00:39:50.240 yay or nay
00:39:51.000 it's called taking
00:39:52.180 a division of the house
00:39:53.360 and there are very
00:39:55.160 challenging issues afoot
00:39:56.380 in the United Kingdom
00:39:57.060 and Canada
00:39:57.560 and around the world
00:39:58.220 about immigration
00:39:59.300 about Islamification
00:40:01.000 of the public square
00:40:01.980 about crime
00:40:03.240 about taxes
00:40:03.880 about freedom
00:40:04.460 about censorship
00:40:05.160 there are difficult questions
00:40:06.660 that we need to call
00:40:07.700 for a division
00:40:08.680 not everything can be glossed over
00:40:10.880 you can't split the difference
00:40:12.100 on a number of things
00:40:13.040 and it's my belief
00:40:15.700 that Tommy Robinson
00:40:16.440 keeps hundreds of thousands
00:40:18.100 or even millions of people
00:40:19.320 integrated into the political system
00:40:21.800 he keeps them believing enough
00:40:23.980 in the courts
00:40:24.800 that they respect the outcomes
00:40:27.060 he keeps them believing enough
00:40:28.480 in democracy
00:40:29.420 that they go to vote
00:40:30.400 and if Tommy is imprisoned
00:40:32.900 and bankrupted
00:40:34.440 and his reputation destroyed
00:40:36.400 and his friends marginalized
00:40:38.220 what will that do
00:40:40.020 other than make people
00:40:41.120 remove themselves
00:40:42.240 from the system
00:40:43.160 and that's what I'm afraid of
00:40:45.220 if people are so
00:40:46.500 feel so rejected
00:40:47.980 and cut off
00:40:48.600 from the UK establishment
00:40:50.380 that they cannot solve
00:40:52.240 their grievances
00:40:52.900 in a democratic
00:40:53.920 peaceful way
00:40:54.720 and they result
00:40:55.560 to other ways
00:40:56.440 I saw in the recent race riots
00:40:58.520 in the north of England
00:40:59.440 there was some polling
00:41:01.440 that a number of people
00:41:03.240 believed that the riots
00:41:04.520 were a legitimate expression
00:41:05.880 of opinion
00:41:06.380 and why would they say that?
00:41:08.380 I think it's because
00:41:09.240 go ahead
00:41:10.260 pass through
00:41:10.700 I think it's because
00:41:12.600 people believe
00:41:13.280 that parliament
00:41:13.820 no longer works
00:41:14.680 and the media
00:41:15.480 no longer works
00:41:16.240 and the judiciary
00:41:16.920 no longer works
00:41:17.840 so if all of the systems
00:41:19.400 that have been created
00:41:20.160 to handle
00:41:21.160 and arbitrate grievances
00:41:22.580 are foreclosed
00:41:24.080 to people like Tommy
00:41:25.000 there will be people
00:41:26.900 who resort to violent ways
00:41:29.080 and I don't support that
00:41:30.340 I don't want that to happen
00:41:31.320 but that's what happens
00:41:32.280 when you cast people out
00:41:34.360 when you exile them
00:41:35.660 to Belmarsh prison
00:41:36.720 because they have
00:41:37.680 a different point of view
00:41:38.480 than you
00:41:38.780 or because they have
00:41:39.380 a different understanding
00:41:40.500 of the facts
00:41:41.100 than a judge
00:41:42.060 I'm worried
00:41:42.700 about the marginalization
00:41:44.380 of Tommy Robinson
00:41:45.500 not just for him
00:41:46.680 because I'm affectionate
00:41:47.640 towards him as a friend
00:41:48.480 but I'm worried
00:41:49.520 about the millions of Brits
00:41:50.560 who look up to him
00:41:51.420 and what this will mean to them
00:41:52.820 I'll give you some more
00:41:54.340 thoughts later
00:41:54.900 but you can see all my videos
00:41:56.340 at TommyTrial.com
00:41:58.580 is this a Halloween costume
00:42:20.840 you're wearing
00:42:21.280 they don't support Canada
00:42:23.460 and as far as I'm concerned
00:42:24.480 if you don't support Canada
00:42:25.320 you're not proud to be Canadian
00:42:26.140 get out
00:42:26.820 leave
00:42:27.420 go back to where you came from
00:42:29.060 I'm a member of the media
00:42:30.240 so I can be on a public
00:42:32.000 you're here trying to provoke us
00:42:34.300 why don't you just walk away
00:42:35.840 oh sir
00:42:36.640 can you tell me
00:42:37.340 what's going on here
00:42:38.500 stay back
00:42:38.980 please don't touch me
00:42:40.740 stay back
00:42:41.320 when Justin Trudeau
00:42:42.560 leaves this office
00:42:43.920 things are going to change
00:42:45.520 and we need to see change today
00:42:48.080 don't touch the mic
00:42:49.540 put that mic out of my face
00:42:51.040 don't touch it
00:42:51.940 you put that mic in my face
00:42:53.180 get that mic out of my face
00:42:54.700 stop putting that mic in my face
00:42:57.940 why
00:42:58.760 because I want to keep the peace here
00:43:00.580 why don't you uphold your oath officer
00:43:02.820 I'm practicing journalism
00:43:04.220 on a public street
00:43:05.360 cooler minds can sit down
00:43:07.160 and work this thing out
00:43:09.300 that's been around for so long
00:43:11.060 I hope to God
00:43:12.540 God help us
00:43:13.400 that everyone sit down
00:43:16.120 and work this out
00:43:17.180 it'll take a couple of generations
00:43:18.800 because hate doesn't disappear overnight
00:43:21.560 David Menzies for Rebel News
00:43:26.340 here in North Toronto
00:43:27.680 and folks I'm standing at the corner
00:43:29.760 of Bathurst and Shepherd
00:43:31.920 and there's a couple of things
00:43:33.880 you should know about this intersection
00:43:35.600 for more than a year now
00:43:38.020 there has been a pro-Israel
00:43:40.800 pro-Jewish demonstration
00:43:43.080 at the metro plaza
00:43:45.600 and another thing you should know
00:43:47.740 there is a sizable Jewish minority
00:43:50.880 in this neck of the woods in Toronto
00:43:53.180 and that brings me to the crux of the matter
00:43:56.020 in the department of
00:43:57.880 how low can you go
00:44:00.060 well
00:44:00.980 when it comes to the pro-Hamas crowd
00:44:03.760 they have invaded this area
00:44:06.300 they came here
00:44:07.320 last weekend
00:44:08.700 and they're back again
00:44:10.520 this weekend
00:44:11.560 now
00:44:11.820 there are thousands of intersections
00:44:14.200 where the Hamasholes
00:44:16.640 can assemble
00:44:17.940 but no
00:44:19.660 they want to come here
00:44:21.380 and it reminds me of that
00:44:22.980 Bruce Springsteen lyric
00:44:24.440 wearing trouble on their shirts
00:44:27.160 and I think really
00:44:29.400 that's what they want
00:44:31.080 they want a confrontation
00:44:32.540 they want violence
00:44:34.660 and really
00:44:35.740 can you blame them
00:44:37.060 the police
00:44:38.700 for more than a year now
00:44:40.300 have turned a blind eye
00:44:41.940 and a deaf ear
00:44:42.860 to chants for genocide
00:44:44.760 to violence
00:44:46.460 to vandalism
00:44:48.340 firebombing
00:44:49.480 and it's inexplicable
00:44:51.720 in fact
00:44:52.260 they've gone one step further
00:44:54.280 haven't they
00:44:54.920 on cold days
00:44:56.280 the Toronto Police Service
00:44:58.040 rank and file
00:44:59.360 reimagined themselves
00:45:00.660 as Uber Eats drivers
00:45:03.100 delivering coffee
00:45:05.080 and Timbits
00:45:06.040 to the thugs here
00:45:07.660 in terms of a response
00:45:09.460 to what occurred here
00:45:11.460 last Sunday
00:45:12.840 the Jewish community
00:45:14.620 has come out
00:45:15.660 on mass
00:45:16.600 they're on the other side
00:45:17.660 of the street
00:45:18.220 I would say
00:45:19.800 the demonstrators
00:45:20.800 the pro-Hamas
00:45:22.280 Hitler youth types
00:45:23.560 they're probably outnumbered
00:45:25.400 at least a hundred to one
00:45:27.100 but they're here anyways
00:45:28.900 and they're doing
00:45:29.780 their due rigueur tactics
00:45:31.660 of trying to cause trouble
00:45:34.460 I see a sign here
00:45:36.080 where the word
00:45:37.540 Nazis
00:45:38.040 is being used
00:45:39.420 to equate
00:45:40.900 Jews
00:45:41.880 which is absolutely
00:45:43.780 shocking
00:45:44.720 given recent
00:45:46.020 world history
00:45:46.880 and again folks
00:45:48.960 it's all about
00:45:49.900 pushing the envelope
00:45:51.100 they know
00:45:52.420 that the police
00:45:53.360 are super hesitant
00:45:55.020 to charge them
00:45:57.180 the police like to go
00:45:58.660 after peaceful
00:45:59.400 counter demonstrators
00:46:00.560 the police like to go
00:46:02.200 after members of the
00:46:03.580 independent media
00:46:04.580 on if you want
00:46:05.720 video evidence
00:46:06.540 do you remember
00:46:07.400 when my cameraman
00:46:08.360 Efren Monsanto
00:46:09.420 and I
00:46:09.940 were at
00:46:11.280 the King Eddie Hotel
00:46:12.580 in March
00:46:13.420 and then
00:46:14.420 Nathan Phillips Square
00:46:15.660 in April
00:46:16.620 and
00:46:17.680 what happened?
00:46:19.060 well
00:46:19.220 yours truly
00:46:20.240 got arrested for
00:46:21.640 well God knows what
00:46:23.200 check it out
00:46:23.820 put your phone down
00:46:24.480 put your hand behind
00:46:25.660 your back
00:46:26.000 put your hand behind
00:46:26.980 your back
00:46:27.360 by the way
00:46:28.240 we defeated those
00:46:29.380 two bogus charges
00:46:30.520 in court
00:46:31.100 the first one was
00:46:32.540 obstruct police
00:46:33.700 and the second one
00:46:35.100 was trespass
00:46:36.720 that's right
00:46:37.260 the police trespassed
00:46:38.940 a journalist
00:46:39.920 in the public square
00:46:41.760 doing journalism
00:46:43.300 incredible
00:46:44.380 in any event
00:46:45.840 we're going to see
00:46:47.040 how this day plays out
00:46:48.440 we're going to see
00:46:49.400 what kind of
00:46:49.980 shenanigans ensue
00:46:51.280 there is a considerable
00:46:52.880 police presence
00:46:54.000 anyways we're going to see
00:46:55.260 how this plays out
00:46:56.360 today
00:46:56.760 and
00:46:57.820 I can tell you
00:46:59.020 as per usual
00:47:01.000 there are some things
00:47:02.680 you notice
00:47:03.320 about the two
00:47:04.100 dueling demonstrations
00:47:05.200 the pro-israel camp
00:47:07.800 they do not chant
00:47:09.080 for genocide
00:47:09.960 or death
00:47:10.640 the pro-israel camp
00:47:12.820 has Canadian flags
00:47:14.780 on their sign
00:47:15.460 you won't see
00:47:16.100 one single
00:47:16.980 Canadian flag here
00:47:18.360 for who knows why
00:47:20.080 and also
00:47:21.600 you will see
00:47:22.420 so many people
00:47:23.420 like this gentleman
00:47:24.360 in front of me
00:47:25.080 who has completely
00:47:27.100 concealed
00:47:27.980 his identity
00:47:29.060 now
00:47:29.440 why would that be
00:47:30.680 in any event
00:47:31.580 let's wade into the mob
00:47:33.140 and try to make sense
00:47:34.240 of it all
00:47:34.680 your hands
00:47:36.380 and the aircraft
00:47:39.540 he cannot
00:47:40.200 pour you
00:47:42.200 in any event
00:47:43.400 you have
00:47:43.820 theεŒ—
00:47:44.580 your clark
00:47:45.500 and the
00:47:46.660 guerre
00:47:47.740 for me
00:47:47.780 through the
00:47:48.820 welcome
00:47:48.960 near you
00:47:49.820 in any event
00:47:52.360 here
00:47:53.200 Well, folks, I'm with Esser, and she is wearing this signage, Tal Shoham.
00:48:08.540 He's a kidnap victim from October 7th of last year.
00:48:12.220 And Esser, you have a personal connection with this kidnap victim, don't you?
00:48:18.060 Yes, I do.
00:48:19.260 This is a very, very sad story.
00:48:23.200 Tal was on vacation in BΓ©ry when the attack occurred.
00:48:27.760 All his family from BΓ©ry were kidnapped, and him and his family who were visiting there.
00:48:33.480 A number of them were killed, including his father.
00:48:37.320 There were about three or four from the family that were killed.
00:48:42.900 The rest of them were kidnapped.
00:48:44.880 They've all been returned, including Tal's wife and children.
00:48:48.740 They were part of the exchange last time.
00:48:51.260 Tal is the only family member that's still in Gaza.
00:48:54.860 We don't know how he's doing because we just don't know.
00:48:59.160 So I'm a Lebanese person, and I stand with Israel.
00:49:02.140 I want the world to know that not all Lebanese people are with Palestine, and I want people
00:49:10.060 to know that the Palestinians and the Syrians have massacred Lebanese people in Lebanon.
00:49:14.420 Cowards that don't show their faces, that aren't Canadian, they want to destroy all of our values.
00:49:23.400 Well, folks, I'm with Carol, and Carol told me off camera her father is a Holocaust survivor.
00:49:31.780 He's going to turn 95 on Thursday.
00:49:35.740 You know, Carol, what does your father say about this?
00:49:39.300 I mean, we're not even a century removed from the Holocaust, and I would imagine people living
00:49:48.160 in a country like Canada, they would never have dreamed to see chants for the genocide
00:49:54.040 of the Jewish people.
00:49:55.500 But here we are.
00:49:56.980 What does your father say about this?
00:49:58.560 It's unbelievable.
00:50:00.880 It's totally unbelievable for his kids and grandchild as well, because we've heard all
00:50:07.020 the horrible stories.
00:50:08.580 He was in four concentration camps, was started out in Birkenau, and actually he was in, he
00:50:17.180 was actually chosen to go into the gas chamber by Mengele, and he, by some miracle, he was in
00:50:24.520 the gas chamber, undressed, and it was on Yom Kippur, the door opened, and the Germans needed 13 men to
00:50:32.000 work, and my father was one of them.
00:50:34.000 Wow.
00:50:34.220 Yeah, he spoke Yiddish, so he understood the German.
00:50:37.420 It was a miracle.
00:50:38.720 So he survived four death camps and the death march.
00:50:43.180 Well, folks, I'm with Renat, and she is the person who has rented this jumbotron-equipped truck,
00:50:50.420 similar to ours.
00:50:51.480 And so, Renat, what, I guess, motivated you to bring this truck to this demonstration today?
00:50:58.260 Okay.
00:50:58.740 Thank you so much for having us on with you guys, and my girlfriends are here with me.
00:51:03.260 I've got a lot of crew with me.
00:51:05.220 We're in the fashion business, and we felt after October the 7th that people were not speaking
00:51:12.120 out in the industry.
00:51:14.520 I, myself, am a stylist.
00:51:16.020 I took it into my professional hands to do a photo shoot.
00:51:21.500 I had my family come in from Israel.
00:51:24.760 They stood with us.
00:51:26.260 The photos are with them.
00:51:27.880 They're with a diverse group of people.
00:51:30.220 So what I'm trying to explain to the public and what I'm trying to explain to our community
00:51:35.640 is it's not just about the Jewish people.
00:51:38.940 I'm with Aaron Adeda, and Aaron, try to make sense of this for me.
00:51:43.640 Once again, we see about, I don't know, a dozen police officers interrogating somebody who was
00:51:49.300 on the pro-Israel side across the street.
00:51:52.540 That crowd is chanting genocide, but nothing to see here, folks.
00:51:57.060 Move on.
00:51:57.500 And what do you make of it?
00:51:59.100 Well, we've been coming here for over 55 weeks peacefully, without incident, without issues.
00:52:05.260 They decided that they were going to come and disrupt that to do exactly this, to look
00:52:10.320 for any opportunity to have somebody arrested or detained or questioned or whatever.
00:52:17.040 This is what they came to do.
00:52:19.380 And we're not having it because nobody on this side has done anything in over 55 weeks.
00:52:26.000 Why would they start today?
00:52:28.920 Sir, can you tell me why they've arrested you?
00:52:31.940 How come the other guy never gets arrested?
00:52:35.160 Back up.
00:52:35.860 I'm not.
00:52:36.100 Why is he?
00:52:37.560 Well, see, I'm not in the way of the police car, officer.
00:52:41.980 Then move back.
00:52:43.240 Well, I am back.
00:52:44.480 It's a, it's a, can you tell me why he's being arrested?
00:52:48.620 Are you the man under arrest?
00:52:49.720 No, I can't.
00:52:50.820 Okay.
00:52:51.420 Lawyer?
00:52:51.960 No.
00:52:52.360 Okay.
00:52:52.740 No, I can't.
00:52:53.560 Okay.
00:52:54.280 Well, that's very helpful.
00:52:56.000 Why, let me ask you this then.
00:52:59.720 Why are you turning a blind eye to people chanting genocide across the street, officer?
00:53:04.600 You have to speak to Corp.com about that.
00:53:06.300 Have a nice day.
00:53:07.400 Speak to who?
00:53:08.240 Corp.com.
00:53:09.140 Corp.com.
00:53:10.780 It'd be nice if they returned my emails.
00:53:12.920 But they don't.
00:53:13.600 Why are they allowed to wear masks?
00:53:14.860 Why are they allowed to wear masks?
00:53:16.500 Period.
00:53:16.820 All committing crimes.
00:53:17.440 What's your answer to that question, officer?
00:53:19.760 All committing indictable offenses.
00:53:21.360 It's illegal for them to wear a mask.
00:53:22.420 That's the whole point here.
00:53:24.340 They're anti-Jews.
00:53:25.760 All of them are anti-Jews.
00:53:27.480 All of them.
00:53:28.600 Well, folks, I'm with the man's wife, Michelle Goldkind.
00:53:32.380 Michelle, why is your husband cuffed in the back of this police SUV?
00:53:36.280 Well, we really don't know much.
00:53:37.660 All we know is that he has been arrested for threatening, I don't know, violence or something.
00:53:45.100 But they haven't told us what exactly.
00:53:46.720 They haven't shown us any videos.
00:53:48.280 The other side has been chanting death to Israel, death to Canada, death to Jews.
00:53:53.140 All kinds of threatening, violent slogans.
00:53:56.600 And my husband is being taken away in cuffs by six policemen.
00:54:01.080 But they won't tell me exactly why, what the allegations are.
00:54:03.560 Well, Michelle, this sounds to me the very definition of two-tier policing.
00:54:07.180 Oh, it's totally, totally two-tiered.
00:54:09.460 It's total double standards, complete double standard.
00:54:11.680 Why is that, sir?
00:54:20.660 Why do you want me on the other side?
00:54:21.900 Because they're keeping separated, okay?
00:54:25.440 But I don't have a dog in the hunt.
00:54:28.160 I'm just covering the news.
00:54:29.520 That's what the police is doing.
00:54:30.200 That's what the police is doing.
00:54:31.580 So do you advise the police, sir?
00:54:34.620 What?
00:54:35.300 Do you advise the police?
00:54:36.460 I don't want to talk to you right now.
00:54:37.740 I don't want to have this interview.
00:54:39.040 But you're telling the police to remove me to the other side.
00:54:44.060 Yeah, well, I think we're under Canadian law, not Sharia law.
00:54:47.360 I do not want to talk to you.
00:54:49.440 Do you like a pin, sir?
00:54:50.440 Do you like a pin?
00:54:51.700 No, thank you.
00:54:52.420 Yeah, grab a pin.
00:54:53.300 Show your support for Palestine.
00:54:54.600 What's that?
00:54:55.060 Show your support for Palestine, sir.
00:54:57.060 Do you have a Remembrance Day poppy?
00:54:58.840 Show your support for Palestine, sir.
00:55:00.120 Why would I do that?
00:55:00.900 Because you're a human being and you have humanity inside you.
00:55:04.080 You don't condone killing and murder.
00:55:06.000 Do you have any poppies there?
00:55:07.200 I'd like to buy a poppy.
00:55:08.200 Here, this is a good one for you.
00:55:09.880 Jews against genocide.
00:55:11.240 No, first of all, I'm not Jewish.
00:55:13.760 Poppy Day is November 11th, sir.
00:55:15.800 You're too soon.
00:55:16.880 Okay, then.
00:55:17.600 You don't even know when it is.
00:55:19.040 Oh, I see.
00:55:20.280 Will you be wearing a poppy on Remembrance Day?
00:55:23.780 I always go to City Hall.
00:55:25.620 Yeah, I go to City Hall.
00:55:26.900 Yeah, okay, then.
00:55:28.400 I'm here to protect you.
00:55:29.400 Oh, that's okay.
00:55:32.400 They're trying to afford it.
00:55:33.280 Look at that.
00:55:34.000 Hey, she'll just hit you with that stick.
00:55:36.740 Oh, I'm used to it.
00:55:39.020 So.
00:55:39.960 Careful, okay?
00:55:40.840 Fear me.
00:55:41.620 Hi, sir.
00:55:42.080 Why have you disguised yourself?
00:55:43.400 I don't know.
00:55:43.680 I don't know.
00:55:45.840 You don't know?
00:55:46.500 I said be careful.
00:55:47.740 I said be careful.
00:55:49.800 Free, free, Palestine.
00:55:51.680 Is this a Halloween costume you're wearing?
00:55:53.400 Free, Palestine.
00:55:54.560 I think you're four days early.
00:55:55.980 Free, free, Palestine.
00:55:57.480 Can you say anything other than that?
00:55:58.980 Free, free, Palestine.
00:56:00.220 Stop and go on the other side.
00:56:01.500 Pardon?
00:56:02.100 Stop and go on the other side.
00:56:03.540 Free, Palestine.
00:56:04.220 Leave us alone.
00:56:05.180 I'm on a public street, sir.
00:56:07.560 Ask the police, ask everybody to be on different sides.
00:56:10.880 I'm a member of the media, so I can be on a public...
00:56:13.860 You're here trying to provoke us.
00:56:16.280 Why don't you just walk away?
00:56:17.640 Just don't, okay, just don't talk to us.
00:56:19.620 Don't talk to us.
00:56:20.400 You walk away.
00:56:21.480 You speak, you speak for everybody here?
00:56:23.460 No one here wants to talk to you.
00:56:25.380 No one here wants to talk to you.
00:56:27.340 I thought we were under Canadian law, not Sharia law.
00:56:31.820 That's the Canadian law.
00:56:32.540 That's the Canadian law.
00:56:33.820 The police officers are asking everybody to be separated.
00:56:38.120 They haven't asked me, sir.
00:56:40.000 Well, not yet.
00:56:41.100 Not yet.
00:56:42.460 Not yet.
00:56:43.220 But get that mic out of my face.
00:56:44.860 Just walk away.
00:56:45.900 No, I'm standing on my ground.
00:56:47.680 Get that mic out of my face.
00:56:48.840 Don't touch the mic.
00:56:49.780 Put that mic out of my face.
00:56:51.280 Don't touch it.
00:56:52.100 You put that mic in my face.
00:56:53.560 Get that mic out of my face.
00:56:55.120 Hey.
00:56:56.700 Get that mic out of my face.
00:56:58.360 That's assault.
00:56:59.560 Did you get that?
00:57:00.180 Get that mic out of my face.
00:57:01.440 Get that mic out of my face.
00:57:03.940 Officer, why don't you...
00:57:05.620 Why don't we...
00:57:06.420 Huh?
00:57:07.000 Officer, are we under Canadian law or Sharia law right now?
00:57:11.040 You saw...
00:57:11.560 Hey, that's the second assault today.
00:57:14.040 That's the second assault.
00:57:16.680 Huh?
00:57:17.100 No.
00:57:18.200 Going now.
00:57:19.360 Why?
00:57:20.580 Am I not allowed to practice journalism?
00:57:23.440 So, because they don't want me here?
00:57:25.760 You bend the knee to them?
00:57:27.260 I need my mic flash.
00:57:29.120 Do you have it?
00:57:30.560 He damaged my microphone.
00:57:33.580 Hey, hey, where the fuck is your sergeant at?
00:57:35.980 He's not supposed to be here.
00:57:37.220 Why are you taking orders from these thugs, officer?
00:57:39.580 When I was there, I got pushed by the sergeant.
00:57:41.780 So now this guy has to be over there.
00:57:43.460 So if you...
00:57:44.100 I'm not a member of the demonstration.
00:57:46.500 Stop putting that mic on my face.
00:57:48.140 Stop putting that mic on my face.
00:57:49.560 Stop putting that mic on my face.
00:57:51.960 Why?
00:57:52.820 Because I want to keep the peace here.
00:57:54.640 So you need to come back across.
00:57:55.520 I need my mic flash.
00:57:56.520 That's fine.
00:57:57.760 Why don't you uphold your oath, officer?
00:58:00.120 I'm practicing journalism on a public street.
00:58:02.540 I'm not giving an interview.
00:58:03.480 I just want to keep the peace.
00:58:04.760 I want to keep you safe.
00:58:06.140 Right?
00:58:06.360 Keep me safe?
00:58:07.200 Yeah.
00:58:07.540 Well, obviously it was...
00:58:08.420 You're armed.
00:58:09.360 You can, you know...
00:58:10.280 You just head back over here.
00:58:11.300 I appreciate it.
00:58:12.100 Thank you.
00:58:12.360 Unbelievable.
00:58:13.420 Again, folks, they are bending the knee to the mob.
00:58:19.060 You can see my mic was damaged when he reached out to it.
00:58:23.660 I'm still waiting for my mic flash.
00:58:25.960 Do you know where it is?
00:58:26.660 Do you know who has it?
00:58:27.320 It's on video.
00:58:35.900 So, folks, to prove the point of two-tier policing, we were once again assaulted.
00:58:42.580 My microphone was damaged.
00:58:44.440 And to compound things, one of the members of the Hitler Youth Movement stole my mic flash.
00:58:52.980 So, we have assault.
00:58:54.180 We have property damage.
00:58:55.360 We have theft.
00:58:56.380 And the response by the police is for me to get across the street.
00:59:02.060 Why are you taking orders from these thugs, officer?
00:59:04.400 When I was there, I got pushed by the sergeant.
00:59:06.600 So, now this guy has to be over there.
00:59:08.820 I'm not a member of the demonstration.
00:59:11.340 Stop putting that mic on my face.
00:59:12.980 Stop putting that mic in my face.
00:59:14.720 Stop putting that mic in my face.
00:59:17.000 Why?
00:59:17.280 Because I'm in a public place right there.
00:59:22.820 I'm practicing public journalism in the public interest.
00:59:26.580 But clearly, the city of my birth and the Dominion of Canada, we are under Sharia law, not Canadian law anymore.
00:59:35.080 We've got the members of the Toronto Police Service acting like the Gestapo in some Islamic republic.
00:59:43.160 The rally that's going on is in solidarity.
00:59:46.820 But the protest behind us on the other side is about hate.
00:59:51.680 And we need to stop hate.
00:59:54.540 We need to stop anti-Semitism in the city of Toronto.
00:59:58.280 The mayor has to do something.
00:59:59.840 The government has to do something.
01:00:01.640 And our people have to stand up for our rights.
01:00:06.220 Media and the leftist universities have been hijacked by the leftists.
01:00:13.500 And we need to take back civil society.
01:00:17.120 And the ability to think clearly and critically and know what is evil and what is good and justice.
01:00:27.180 Rebel News is on the forefront of doing that.
01:00:31.280 And many other media that are similar to Rebel.
01:00:34.820 I support you 100%.
01:00:37.800 I really think that the people across the street are made up of all kinds of people from all kinds of backgrounds.
01:00:46.020 And there are those amongst those demonstrators who know what we're going through.
01:00:51.660 But they've been so brainwashed that they don't understand and they don't get it.
01:00:57.120 But I thoroughly believe that there are people on, quote, quote, the other side that want peace with us.
01:01:07.460 That would die.
01:01:08.500 They would love it.
01:01:10.500 You know, it's a matter of talking.
01:01:12.800 It's a matter of sitting down and talking.
01:01:14.580 Because they're being led by some, I don't know, people who we call, they're worse than animals, you know.
01:01:24.500 And that's what they see all the time.
01:01:27.580 They can't help but puppet it.
01:01:29.660 But cooler minds can sit down and work this thing out that's been around for so long.
01:01:36.260 I hope to God, God help us, Am Yisrael Chai, that everyone sit down and work this out.
01:01:42.040 It'll take a couple of generations because hate doesn't disappear overnight.
01:01:46.840 It'll take generations.
01:01:48.280 But we have to start somewhere.
01:01:50.360 They came for a confrontation.
01:01:52.200 They come for violence.
01:01:54.000 The pro-Hamas crowd are chanting genocide from the river to the sea.
01:01:59.120 All their rhetoric, all their BS.
01:02:01.780 And at the end of the day, we know who they are.
01:02:04.160 We know exactly why they're here.
01:02:06.240 And unfortunately, you know, the police, I guess, are trying to do the best they can.
01:02:10.480 But they should not have allowed them to come at all.
01:02:14.220 They should not be here whatsoever.
01:02:16.600 What do you have to say?
01:02:17.620 If you had the ear of Mayor Olivia Chow, of Police Chief Myron Demke, what would you tell them?
01:02:24.000 Where were you on October 7th to memorialize the 1,200 Jews, including Canadians, that were killed?
01:02:30.820 Why is it you're able to show up for a Halloween costume party for kids,
01:02:34.040 but you can't show up to support the Jewish people of Canada?
01:02:36.620 Canada has lost its senses.
01:02:39.500 We had COVID, and now we have a mental disease called anti-Semitism.
01:02:44.100 And the bottom line is it's not fashionable to be anti-Semitic.
01:02:48.800 I just want to thank Rebel News and all that you do for us.
01:02:52.180 We really need a voice against all of these disgusting monsters
01:02:57.000 who have nothing better to do than to make a country better.
01:03:00.800 We're only 2% of the world population. It's unbelievable.
01:03:05.300 Thank you for all the work that you do for us.
01:03:08.180 This is not the Canada that we grew up in, nor is it the Canada that we want to stay in.
01:03:13.140 And there's no future in a Canada with two-tier policing and unfairness.
01:03:18.280 And it's just, it's ridiculous.
01:03:19.980 They want death not just to Jews, Jews to Canadians, Jews to Americans.
01:03:24.900 Anybody that's not part of their antifada and part of Islam, they want dead.
01:03:28.940 They're going to destroy our country and the world if we don't take action together.
01:03:32.680 What did you make, a man, of Mayor Chow snubbing the one-year vigil for the...
01:03:37.200 Disgusting. Disgusting. Absolutely disgusting.
01:03:40.960 How does this play out? How long is this going to go on for?
01:03:43.760 And how long are our politicians and our police force going to tolerate this?
01:03:49.980 When Justin Trudeau leaves this office, things are going to change.
01:03:56.280 And we need to see change today. And change is coming soon.
01:04:00.860 They don't support Canada. And as far as I'm concerned, if you don't support Canada,
01:04:03.700 you're not proud to be Canadian, get out. Leave. Go back to where you came from.
01:04:07.640 They're stepping on Israeli flags. They're burning Canadian flags.
01:04:10.760 They're burning American flags. Like, how disrespectful is that?
01:04:13.560 If you live in this country, be proud to be Canadian.
01:04:16.020 We have lots of flags, Canadian flags, not just Israeli flags,
01:04:19.660 and American flags as well, because we are peace-loving people.
01:04:22.260 And really, the reality is, they've covered their faces.
01:04:25.500 We don't know who they are. And we have our faces exposed.
01:04:30.080 We are exposed. We're saying to you, we are living here in Toronto.
01:04:35.800 Aside from what's going on in Israel right now,
01:04:38.400 we must stand here and fight anti-Semitism in Toronto,
01:04:42.680 in New York, in Chicago, in Montreal, global.
01:04:46.980 And that's what has to happen.
01:04:51.400 And folks, I should add, we're not here just to report the news.
01:04:55.400 We brought along our beautiful Rebel News truck.
01:04:59.780 Behind me, it is showing the message, bring them home.
01:05:03.440 That would be the kidnap victims of October 7th, 2023.
01:05:08.880 And if I can make an appeal to you,
01:05:11.720 can you go to StandWithIsrael.com?
01:05:15.480 That's StandWithIsrael.com.
01:05:17.940 And if you're able to, kindly make a donation
01:05:20.840 so that we can keep our beautiful truck on the road.
01:05:25.120 Well, it's Monday night, and Tommy Robinson is in Belmarsh Prison,
01:05:38.240 the toughest prison in all the United Kingdom.
01:05:40.880 And he'll be there for nine months.
01:05:43.140 They're trying to break him and trying to break his movement.
01:05:46.460 Nine months in that prison, solitary confinement,
01:05:49.360 would be enough to break many men.
01:05:51.480 Tommy's done it before, not quite nine months in solitary.
01:05:54.280 That's too much.
01:05:55.540 That's practically torture.
01:05:57.560 But I'm sure with the support of people
01:05:59.400 and many visitors and friends, we'll get through it.
01:06:03.620 From downtown London, for Rebel News,
01:06:06.340 this is Ezra Levant saying,
01:06:08.520 keep fighting for freedom while you still have it.
01:06:24.280 everybody you are.
01:06:25.840 Let's pray to them.
01:06:27.580 Yep.
01:06:27.800 Thank you, God.
01:06:28.720 If that's Schweyn to the right that you're feeling or not,
01:06:29.180 any longer not,
01:06:29.800 let's bring up the欠 Chan.
01:06:30.620 In the key of that,
01:06:31.580 that matter,
01:06:32.360 it's μ•Šμ•„.
