A shady government outfit in the UK that was previously tasked with identifying and monitoring COVID lockdown dissenters has been repurposed to spy on critics of mass migration and so called ‘asylum’ hotels, the Telegraph reports.
The body, now known as the National Security and Online Information Team (NSOIT) has been lobbying social media companies such as TikTok to take action against users who post what it describes as “concerning narratives” about immigration and ‘two tier policing’.
The unit operates within the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, and was previously known as the ‘Counter Disinformation Unit’ during the pandemic.
During the COVID lockdowns, the unit was tasked with pressuring social media companies to target and censor those critical of the stay at home orders and those questioning the mass vaccination of children. Discussions opposing vaccine passports were also flagged.
The rebranded outfit has now been flagging videos it sees as “exacerbating tensions” in Britain, particularly in August last year during the unrest stemming from the murder of three children by a second generation migrant in Southport.
The report contains examples of emails sent by government workers asking for the unit to investigate posts that are critical of migration, such as the one below to TikTok that expresses an ‘urgent’ need to monitor a post that highlighted a rejected Freedom of Information request about the location of asylum hotels, and a reference to asylum seekers as “undocumented fighting-age males”.
Another email shows that government officials warned TikTok that users were posting about “two-tier” policing at Southport rallies, amid accusations that white protesters had been treated more harshly by the police than ethnic minorities.
The government officials demanded that TikTok explain “any measures you have taken in response…as soon as you are able to”.

So now instead of locking them up, they spy on them to get more names of people. Guilty of something or just an aquatince doesn’t matter. Just round them all up.

Don’t you dare make a meme, citizens
nor do ye dare protest the Muslim
invaders who have raped and even
slaughtered your children.
Just shut up and pay your taxes.
Sir Keir Starmer
Guilty of something or just an aquatince doesn’t matter. Just round them all up.
Shades of J6
Bet the Brits wish Trump was one of them.
Reminds me of the history of Spain in the 15th and 16th centuries.
“the National Security and Online Information Team (NSOIT) has been lobbying social media companies such as TikTok to take action against users who post what it describes as “concerning narratives” about immigration and ‘two tier policing’.”
And this kids, is why they are killing TikTok…. They like to be able to control it like they do Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. They don’t like anything else under control.

Does your government have a loicense for that NSOIT?
I did nazi that coming…
No, the Brits elected the arseholes who are doing this. Even if Reform comes to power, don’t forget that most Brits elected Tories and Labor for years/decades and stood by while England was destroyed. So long as some politico told them they would get free healthcare using unqualified illegals from ‘Ellhole countries — they were OK with all the rest.
Brits sold their souls.
Oops! That wasn’t respectful of the great man’s title. I’ll try again.
It’s getting close to when we should add Sir Keir to the group below.
Unfair. The Tories promised to stem immigration and to promote freedom.
The Brits voted Tory, and were betrayed by them. So some Brits voted Labor to punish the Tories.
For most of post WW2 history, Brits were given no choice. All the major parties supported open immigration, regardless of what they promised.
Thatcher promised to restrict immigration. She won. Then she reneged on her promise.
Unfair. The Tories promised to stem immigration and to promote freedom.
Once the Tories kicked Enoch Powell to the curb, it was over.

Ministry if Truth. Ya, right.
Just like Matthew Hopkins, The Witchfinder General.
That’s what this is. Those filthy scumbags working for the “National Security and Online Information Team” are searching for modern day witches.
Find out who is doing the spying for NSOIT. Release their names and addresses. Turn THEM into the witches. See how they like being accused of heresy. /spit
Or Obama/Biden America. But we do have the second amendment while the Brits have zero amendments.
