'Our country's ruined': Protesters on why they oppose Asylum Hotels
Sky News ^ | 29 Aug | Sky News

Posted on 08/29/2025 9:00:28 AM PDT by RandFan

"It's an invasion," Dinah Bentley tells me, standing next to a cardboard cut-out of Nigel Farage.

The 78-year-old retired teacher says she "doesn't laud" the Reform MP, whose grinning likeness is a permanent fixture in her West Yorkshire conservatory, but he "says what I believe".

"Everybody talks about migration, but our country's ruined," Dinah adds. "They've ruined it."

The "they" in her mind? People who have crossed into the UK on small boats.

We have seen asylum hotel protests intensify over the summer and wanted to speak to the people who've joined them.

Is there a peaceful way out of this? I don’t see one.

The UK elites and City of London seem determined to crush the English nation and race, and turn it into a woke/globalist parking lot.

Get with the program. Paris is so beautiful these days, with all its diversity. Don't you want to be like that?

Asylum laws should be scrapped!

Another feel-good intention leading straight to a hell hole.

There shouldn’t even be such a thing as a migrant Hotel. People in a boat enter your country illegally, they should be incarcerated and deported, the whole thing is absurd.

Ms. Bentley is right, of course. But she had better choose her words carefully. The British Thought Police will be looking for a reason to arrest her.

The Pictish Isles have been taken over by:

1) The cannibals of Kush.
2) The snake worshipers of Stygia.
3) The voodoo hordes of Punt

The Brits are now living in a hellish Hyborian age landscape that their leaders created on purpose with no end in site.

This is the problem. The country is falling apart but this woman still feels the need to qualify her support of Reform out of fear of not looking respectable. She may vote Conservative again only to have them continue open borders policies like they did for the decade before Labour took over. Until the UK voters get over their psychological barrier to voting for Reform, the country is going to continue to disintegrate.

Hope she doesn't make a MEME or complain on Social Media - THAT IS NOW A CRIME under JACKBOOT THUG SIR KEIR STARMER

(hat tip to another FReeper for images)

England 2025 is now '1984' in Real Time

Coming to a country near you should the Democrats get back in power

["This Keir Starmer, in my opinion, is evil. IF YOU SPEAK OUT, HE'LL PUT YOU IN PRISON. And we've seen that with LUCY CONNOLLY. He wants people in prison. And lets remind ourselves, this is a man who has spent his life defending wronguns. He doesn't defend people like us, he defends wronguns and he'll put anybody above the best interests of the British people."]



'1984'
