Yesterday far-right troublemakers targeted hotels containing asylum seekers.

One was in Tamworth, a few miles north of here.

In another in Rotherham they tried to set a Holiday Inn on fire with people still inside it.

    People are not afraid of this "Far-Right" label anymore. Government and media did this.
  • @Cryptocracy_Now
    This has been coming for years. Disrespecting your citizens has consequences.
  • @dsadik666
    "Asylum seekers" what a joke ? how many safe countries did they go through?
  • @kieranh2005
    400 arrests in a day, courts running 24/7 Why couldn't this have been done to desl with the grooming gangs, the rampant knife crime and robberies?
  • @jkeogh12345678
    They should be putting the “full force of the law” into responsible immigration.
  • They do not accept British people protesting but they do accept knife attacks on British little girls, machete- and grooming-gangs? The two men they interviewed looked young and strong, not vulnerable at all. Are there any women and children in this hotel or just military aged men?
  • Where is the royal family? Aren’t they the moral leaders in Britain? Why aren’t they speaking out?
  • Anyone remember the police pushing over old ladies because they were protesting against covid lockdowns? I remember.
  • @juicyj9357
    Those people in the streets are tired of paying for their Hotel rooms while their families are having to do without.

    i do not agree with violence but equality is desperately needed i live in burnley a few months ago there was spree for a month of young Muslim gangs going around in cars shooting young women with air soft guns for not covering up my own family member was targeted by them the result was nothing when you live in these areas you get to see what happens daily between the communities there is no such thing as a blended society on the street and if you do not believe it move to these areas
  • The true tragedy is that the murdered little girls will be sidelined by the media frenzy over the demonstrations. 😢

  • @user-do1qf8rm7b
    Can’t they peacefully protest. Why do these thugs destroy their home they claim to want to protect
  • @alexis19720
    It's not about any one person. It's about the failure of the system. Our government is failing all comminities.
  • @hirepgym6913

    政府把老百姓的钱都给了乌克兰,当自己国民的无法忍受时就会这样,不要抱怨他们人民的游行示威,应该反醒政府做了什么。
