Yes

the Police Chief of Epping was the same chap who sent the cops round to Allison Pearson's house (Telegraph journo) for a year old tweet that both had a correct community note attached to it and Pearson had deleted when she realized it was incorrect.

The Chief is a bit of a power hungry douchebag I take it?

I can't think of any justification for escorting the "counter" protesters there, what could it possibly achieve?

Tension, its like keeping football fans apart, what is the reason for that, so that there is less violence, its clear the police needed some violence so they could arrest a few people and change the narrative

like it or not, immigrants are now associated with sexual assault and worse, and it's not without numerous verified examples. It's also not helped by the fact that boats are predominantly filled with single young men rather than with families.

I don't know what procedures they go through on arrival, but i think at a minimum everyone that arrives without documentation should be fitted with an ankle monitor. There is plenty justification for that

Plus we do need to do background checks, before even considering letting any of the illegal immigrants to stay in the country for a prolonged period of time.

Four-star hotel in Canary Wharf earmarked for asylum seekers



According to Tower Hamlets council, Labour intends to repurpose the London
hotel as temporary accommodation for asylum seekers.

On Wednesday morning, workers were pictured wheeling beds and mattresses
into the hotel.

A spokesman for the authority said: “We are aware of the Government’s
decision to use the Britannia Hotel in Canary Wharf to provide temporary
accommodation for asylum seekers.

“It is important that the Government ensures that there is a full package of
support for those staying at the hotel.

“We are working with the Home Office and partners to make sure that all
necessary safety and safeguarding arrangements are in place.”

Parmy posted a video of this last night, this was so sudden visitors to London were turning up at the hotel only to be locked out with no explanation, on the same day Angela Rayner was pushing for a tourist tax

The Chief of Essex Police has now publically thanked the people of Epping for their peaceful protest, doesn't sound like a riot to me.

10 people were arrested, we don't know who they are protesters, counter protesters, paid agitators

As gross as it is that such nice hotels are being wasted thusly ... I'd rather it be people who can likely afford a last minute room elsewhere, than those who had to scrimp and save to get a Travelodge or something, and could never afford something else at that notice.

These were people who had prior bookings, but had received no notification from the hotel, I guess the sacked staff were a bit annoyed so didn't bother?

A Pakistani man, two sets of Chinese couples and a young man on his own I am sure there were many more, the young man said he has paid 80.00 so its wasn't exactly expensive for Canary Wharf


Can you imagine landing after a long flight, making your way to your hotel in the evening and not even getting an explanation, the doors were locked and the people inside had probably no clue what to say

A few small protests in Leeds, Norwich and somewhere else.

Scottish polis take no ****. Should be interesting to see how the citizen journalists travelling up from england get on.


Football season coming up soon.

Interesting opinion ...funny how you never hear about football thugs fighting immigrants on a Saturday afternoon, considering the name they get on here. Maybe now there is a massively more visible presence in the town centres of immigrants since last summer things may be different this year. Will the police cope,?


I'm expecting very visible high sentences for anyone involved in trouble up to kick off day to deter anyone on a Saturday from kicking off with the immigrants instead of the locals...Burnley, Leeds and Sunderland being visited by every massive team in the land, with the likes of Chelsea amd west ham. Bournmouths turned shite as well, almost unrecognizable.
