The first arrest has been made before the demo and protest planned in the centre of Brighton today have even started.
Sussex Police said: “Our officers are in place at a planned protest in Brighton today, keeping you safe while facilitating peaceful protest.
“We have already arrested a man on suspicion of a public order offence in Queen’s Road and he has been taken to custody.”
A group called the South East Patriots are plans to host a march through the centre of Brighton, starting at noon.
The group is urging better control of Britain’s borders, enforcement of immigration laws and for illegal immigrants to be deported.
A counter-protest, involving about two dozen groups under the banner the Carnival Against Fascism, was due to start at 11am, aiming to show that far right supporters are not welcome in Brighton.
Various musicians have added their names to the Carnival Against Fascism cause including Fatboy Slim while Phil Hartnoll from Orbital even suggested that he might play a set on a portable 12-volt sound system.
Music is Fatboy Slim’s “Weapon of Choice”.
Not Fat boy slim the multi millionaire who has a border around his property and a private beach! Maybe the illegals should rock up there, I’m sure he would welcome them into his huge houses and care for them!
Argumentum ad hominem tu quoque.
Please post your address and leave the door open. I want to live by the seaside. No human is illegal.
Please refer to my previous response.
Send them all round to Benjamin’s place seeing as he is so keen to invite boat loads of unwashed fighting age men in. I’m sure he’ll be delighted to put them up and fund their bed and board, because the rest of us aren’t. Imagine the stench. lol!
“Fighting Age.” – a term coined by Nigel Farage, used to whip up the suggestable people to inflame a narrative that simply doesn’t exist. Congratulations Dan on highlighting how dangerous a lack of critical thinking is.
Is it a requirement to open your house to all, to believe that people who come to these shores seeking a better life should be treated fairly and with dignity?
They can’t even house the people born here.
Agreed. But that’s not the fault of immigrants, regardless of what the rich and powerful tell you.
If immigrants were illegal, they would be prosecuted under English and Welsh law. They are not prosecuted, which suggests they are not illegal. Their mode of entry is irregular, so at worst (best?) they are irregular migrants.
They are illegally entering. My nan had to pay thousands to be here and she was married to my English grandad but she came here legally and had to pay for it.
Police should throw your Nan in jail
Meanwhile down on fraggle rock,
Anyone demanding the boat loads of fighting age men be invited into the country should put their name down on a register to accommodate and support them. No burden on the benefits system. See how fast they back-track and make excuses. It’s nothing more than virtue signalling.
Nothing weaker than a straw man argument, parroted from another man, to show how derisory a person is. Next, he’ll go back to throwing insults around, further proving my point.
There’s plenty of British people creating a burden on the benefits system. Why don’t you offer them space in your house so they aren’t claiming housing benefits?
