Recently we noticed that Nigel Farage is subscribed to our channel, so we thought it would be friendly of us to help his channel out. So in this video, we take a look at some of Farage’s recent content and assess the core claims he’s making; that migrants are being housed in four-star hotels and that there are more illegal crossings into the UK than ever.

It seems pretty much a certainty that Andy Burnham will be the next British prime minister. Exactly when it happens depends on a few factors. We outline some of the reasons an early general election is likely.

The government should be charged with embezzling British taxpayers money for paying hotels for housing these bogus migrants who have invaded the UK illegally on dinghies back of lorries etc .Action needs to happen now to stop these illegals locals are becoming more and more furious that their government they voted for have done NOTHING to find a solution.

Whether it's good for hotel businesses or not is irrelevant…it's still the tax payer that has to pick up the bill!

So let's get this right we have our own homeless that we can't house. But we can afford to put illegal immigrants in 4 star hotels.

These are not refugees are they? They’re economic migrants who are costing the taxpayers
of Britain many millions of pounds and causing upset to a lot of British communities. They
shouldn’t be here at all.

If this was a temporary measure during covid why are more and more hotels being added to the list even after covid restrictions have been removed and hotels can be booked with no issue? This system was also already being used before covid existed.
I was near the Strathmore hotel in Morecambe the other day and this has recently been turned in to a home for immigrants, you say in the video it's families etc, I saw around 30-40 residents of the Strathmore and they were all young men, not one one woman or child In site. 3 of the men were "playing" on one of the parks despite being (at a guess) In their mid 20's whilst a mother with her kids was looking very uncomfortable. There also seemed to be no mention on this video of the cases of harassment regarding young girls (as young as 12) by these men from these hotels in certain areas…

These hotels (regardless of their star rating) are still being used for illegal/irregular migrants because there is very little accommodation available in the wider community especially in those parts of the country where properties are scarce and/or extremely expensive. As a result, these hotels and hotel chains (some of which are foreign-owned investment assets) have also been receiving a very steady income from the tax payer during what was otherwise a very lean time for many British businesses. Once somebody without identification documentation enters British territorial waters, there is currently no way, and in fact never really has been any guaranteed way (brexit voters take note) to move that person against their will to another country without the formal agreement of the receiving country. Britain is one of the few countries in Europe which does not impose a legal requirement to carry ID cards. The individual members of the European Union maintain quite a varied or even inconsistent response towards illegal/irregular migrants. The Mediterranean countries are trying ever harder to restrict sea routes; several Schengen countries including France, Germany, Austria and those of Scandinavia have reintroduced border controls; Poland, Hungary, Lithuania and (surprisingly) Denmark all operate extremely restrictive practices all of which fall well outside the spirit of the EU's overall guidance on migration policies. The original authors of international migration policies back in the '50s could never have foreseen the development of what are now permanent large scale migratory movements into Europe. Britain is certainly not alone in Europe in grappling with what continues to be a very contentious and divisive issue.

I live up the road from the Rivenhall hotel Nigel went to and was so sad to see him use it for his own point scoring. The hotel needed the money during lockdown and staff are potentially losing their jobs now as a result of the loss of income.
@Philiptanzer
January 9, 2024 at 10:08 am
Your argument seems to be "it is government policy, so nothing wrong" but Farage's point is that government policy is wrong.

So let me get this straight: you come from let's say Africa, you are 'saved' by an ONG ship that tranports you free over the Mediterranean, you arrive in France, you stay there until you get to Calais, you cross over illegally to the UK, you are housed in a 4 star hotel and get free money. Is that it?

I have no issues with people in need coming to our country. My issue is with people coming who are not in any danger or if those people are dangerous or criminals.
They need processing properly.
