00:00And this is a man who has been in and out of prison, a really bad situation in prison, by the way, because of his speech, been in and out of court because of his speech as well.
00:13And so there's some developments in this case.
00:15Preston Bates is a journalist there on the ground covering it.
00:18He joins me now.
00:19Preston, the saga has been so up and down and just wild.
00:24It's hard to even keep track of it.
00:26And it's been going on.
00:27It's been persisting for so long, unfortunately for Tommy.
00:30He seems to just it's just never going to go away.
00:33What is the latest situation with with Tommy's status and the latest developments in the legal situation?
00:41Oh, and it's great to be here with you today.
00:43And I'm sure given your own time on the U.S. prison system, this story rings a little close to home.
00:50I caught up with Ezra Levant from Rebel News, interviewed him on Friday.
00:54As you know, Ezra has been supporting Tommy and helping with his legal bills.
00:59Now, Tommy having other support, big, big guns, so to speak, behind him, helping him with this ongoing saga.
01:06He's been in solitary confinement for 150 days.
01:10So that's quite a lot of time.
01:13He's a lot of people don't understand.
01:15He's actually being held for a civil contempt of court charge, not a criminal charge.
01:21The charge stems back to when he showed his video, his documentary last summer at the Unite the Kingdom rally at Trafalgar Square.
01:30Wow, I would imagine that's a pretty wild situation.
01:36Do we know?
01:37Are there any other cases where it's a it's a civil issue where you're in solitary for 150 plus days?
01:44I've never heard of that.
01:45I haven't either, and I think Americans have a very, let's just say, primitive view of how dangerous the free speech situation is over here in the U.K., despite the best reporting from people like Infowars.com.
02:01I mean, it's really dire.
02:02You don't actually have the right to free speech in public spaces.
02:05I can't speak to whether or not there have been other civil contempt of court cases, but I think 150 days in solitary confinement is unprecedented.
02:14Now, there has been reporting that, according to a couple expert witnesses and their testimonies, which were presented at the hearing on Friday, that it was for Tommy's safety.
02:24However, Tommy's attorneys made cases that a previously undiagnosed case of ADHD and his being ostracized, not allowed to interact with people, was having a negative and deleterious impact on his health, and therefore he should be able to socialize more.
02:41I'll tell you, when he appeared on video, he was wiry, his beard was bushy, he looked skinny, he was stemming and twitching back and forth constantly.
02:52He didn't look to be too well, and I know from your personal experience, when you were in solitary, you know exactly what that can do to your health.
03:01So imagine five months of that treatment.
03:03Well, I will just say quickly that the weight loss factor is, that's 100%.
03:09I mean, it's almost impossible to maintain a healthy weight.
03:14I mean, there's certain things, I mean, you have your cell exercises, let's say, as they're called, but you're not eating much.
03:22And the food that you get is barely even edible.
03:24I would imagine it's a similar situation for him.
03:27You know, he might have a different personality thing than me dealing with ADHD, where he needs the socializing a lot more.
03:33But nonetheless, when you're sitting in that cell all day, obviously it wears on you.
03:37And then plus the factor of the weight loss and everything else.
03:40I mean, you become a shell of yourself.
03:41There's no doubt you become a shell of yourself.
03:43And, you know, for Tommy, we're over here across the pond.
03:47And so maybe you can give us a better idea of what's going on, actually, maybe in the larger body of Europe or just in Great Britain.
03:56Is this a story that maintains its presence in the headlines?
04:00Is this a case that continues to get momentum?
04:03Because it kind of comes and goes here in America.
04:05But is this staying at the forefront in Europe or in England?
04:09Do they know this massive free speech story with Tommy Robinson?
04:15Yeah, it's weird.
04:17I've got to be honest.
04:18I grew up in America in the Midwest, in the South, much like yourself.
04:22And you would think, as an American, free speech is kind of sacrosanct.
04:25It's maybe the most important.
04:27The First Amendment may be the most important, protected with the teeth of the second.
04:32But over here, it's weird.
04:34There's this weird classism.
04:36There's racism.
04:37There's the divide and conquer mentality.
04:40Tommy being born and raised in Luton, which is, frankly, just barely north of London.
04:45But he has a different accent.
04:46And so the posh people in Chelsea like to look down on him while complaining about Islamization out of the same corner or the other corner of their mouth.
04:55It's really strange.
04:56The Tommy situation doesn't appear as regularly in the news over here.
04:59There can't even be really seemingly a right-wing party that's getting off the ground.
05:05I mean, reform is only now starting to take off as it's going left and left and left and getting softer and softer on immigration.
05:12Ben Habib, Rupert Lowe.
05:14So there's a lot of, I would say, divide and conquer over here.
05:18I would say older British people view Tommy as a cultural icon, as a crusader, as someone who's standing up for British values, exposing the rape gang inquiries.
05:29Keir Starmer still refusing to really be accountable for that situation last summer that exploded.
05:34So it's quite strange as an American who values free speech to be covering a story which is so fundamentally about free speech and it to fall on deaf ears, including with allies.
05:46Here's what's so crazy about this for me, and we see how a lot of the policies that start in Europe find their way to the United States of America.
05:58A lot of the policies that have hurt Europe, quite frankly, hurt their culture, hurt their people, a lot of that ends up finding its way here maybe five, ten years later.
06:06The one contrast that's strange to me, if we can compare and contrast, what we're seeing in America, and I don't know if it's, well, I guess you could say it's hit a million.
06:16American citizens to a certain degree. It's not as bad as Europe yet, but here it's like if you criticize Israel or you say something they view as anti-Semitic, you could get rounded up, you could get deported.
06:25There's been some issues with that. It's not right now really hitting the press like a free speech case like it should, but it seems like in Europe, specifically in Tommy Robinson's case, it's like the opposite.
06:36It's like if you say anything bad about Islam or Muslims, they come after you. That's the great speech crime.
06:42What is the deal with that? Is it really just you can't say anything bad about Islam or Muslims?
06:49I mean, is that really the color of law that they're trying to have in place here?
06:54I think so, and I just recently reported on the Marine Le Pen rally after her conviction interviewing seven members of the National Assembly in Paris.
07:02I'm going to be covering the Polish election coming up soon. There really is a I think Harrison earlier covered the Palantir CEO and his ties with selling technology to NATO and him being proud to be part of the Frankfurt School and suppress right wing movement.
07:18So there's a concerted effort over here. Globalism, a lot of people have moved over here after the Trump election that the globalists that I'm reporting on watching and following feel feel very cozy, very comfortable in London and in Eastern Europe and Romania, specifically with that large NATO base.
07:35Yeah, Islam and then London is kind of a third rail.
07:37Here's Starmer famously not celebrating Palm Sunday, but just celebrated all the other holidays.
07:42So there is a third rail, whether you want to call it replacement migration, however you want to look at it, the demographics in London and in England are changing substantially.
07:52And Tommy Robinson is an iconic hero in this struggle to preserve the West.
07:58Do people following this case, specifically people that live in England, do they look at this as a precedent setting case?
08:06Do the courts look at this as a precedent setting case?
08:09Is that why they're going after Tommy so aggressively?
08:11Do they want to see Tommy basically get the fullest extent of punishment, the fullest extent of the law here so that they can have this precedent, this mandate that says, OK, this is the line.
08:22If you say anything negative about Islam or you say they're grooming gangs or whatever the specific details are, that you're going to have the same fate as Tommy Robinson and that's going to have that chilling effect.
08:33Is that the purpose?
08:35Is that what they're using Tommy Robinson for?
08:37I think he has become, much like Alex has had his identity stolen from him and robbed and he's become, his identity is now separated and used as a weapon against himself.
08:48I think that's happening to Tommy too.
08:50Tomorrow I get, my source inside the courts suggests that tomorrow morning between 10 and 10.30 a.m. London time, we should find out the status of what happened at this 75-minute hearing that occurred on Friday.
09:05No doubt there's an intent to stamp down any sort of resistance, any sort of liberty figure.
09:12And I think by doing so, they're playing into this problem reaction solution of creating ethnic and racial and civilizational conflict to create an angrier world, as Klaus Schwab talked about.
09:24I'm very concerned about the report that Alex aired for two hours on Sunday covering Governor Shapiro's house and the torching of it, the vandalism, the Molotov cocktail.
09:35I've really been thinking a lot about this topic and the angry summer that we could see here.
09:40I mean, the Brits are polite and they invite people in and they're very space aware.
09:46If you walk on the sidewalk, they'll never bump you, even in a busy, crowded time.
09:49But there's a lot of tamped down resentment and anger.
09:54And for hundreds of years, the very best in Europe went to the United States.
09:57And so for hundreds of years, whoever was left behind is still here.
10:01And there's been invasion after invasion.
10:03So there's there's resentment towards America.
10:06There's politeness.
10:07There's resentment towards all these new people coming here.
10:09But there's also they're too polite and maybe look down upon commenting upon that.
10:15It's just this weird dystopian environment where you're supposed to be polite.
10:18But you're supposed to love all these new people.
10:20But you can't say anything bad.
10:22But they come here and they do things.
10:23And some of them are bad for you.
10:25And if you say anything, well, then you're a racist or you're a bigot or you're lower class.
10:29It's strange, Owen.
10:32Well, and I kind of again, I'm just to compare and contrast and we'll get back to the Tommy situation.
10:36But I mean, it's a totally different deal because the speech and I view them as speech violations.
10:42I think it's a serious First Amendment issue we have here with with the anti-Semitism laws.
10:46But that's more directed towards, you know, foreign policy and foreign entanglements.
10:51I mean, nobody I don't really see people that have a problem with Jews coming to America.
10:56American Jews have assimilated into American culture pretty much.
10:59I mean, there's no real issues there.
11:02But with with Islam and with Muslims, it's a different story.
11:05That that's there is a little more friction, whether it's in Europe or even here in the United States,
11:10with people complaining about these giant Islamic centers going up a big one here in Texas.
11:14So so, you know, are are the issues that we're having right now with free speech, with criticism of Israel or foreign policy?
11:20That's not necessarily an issue of, hey, we have people on the ground that aren't assimilating and they're hurting our culture.
11:26It's it's foreign policy thing.
11:27But in in Europe and England specifically, that is the problem.
11:31And so they're saying, hey, look, these people aren't assimilating to our culture.
11:35We're losing our culture.
11:36Now they're saying they want to destroy our culture.
11:39Tommy Robinson speaks out about it, ends up in jail.
11:42And I guess where the missing link here for Europeans or for for the British is that you don't have political leadership.
11:50I mean, is that the problem?
11:51Is there anyone in political leadership right now that's trying to change this or put a stop to it?
11:57I think you've nailed the point right on the head there.
12:01And it's so frustrating to see right populist nationalist sort of pro Great Britain patriots struggle to coalesce around one leader.
12:11And for a while, we thought it was going to be Nigel Farage.
12:13But the more that his background and all of his divisive rhetoric and his associations come to the light.
12:21I mean, you see defection after defection and just running out ally after ally.
12:25And it's it's quite troubling.
12:27In fact, in the news recently, one of his former MPs who no longer has been MP anymore, Ben Habib, recently took over the leadership of a party.
12:37And I have it on high on high that it's very hard to form a party here because the debanking, the assault on any someone, anyone who's not part of the blob or the uni party is so intense that it's very difficult to set up a new party apparatus, which allows labor and conservative Tory parties to stay in power.
12:57So, you know, some people thought it was going to be Nigel, but, you know, there's just so much baggage there and he just keeps running out ally after ally.
13:06Reform is not a Democratic Party.
13:08I think there will be an alternative very soon, maybe one led by Ben Habib.
13:12But, you know, we as Americans should pray for Great Britain and France because what's happening here is going to affect.
13:20It's a testing ground for what will happen back at home.
13:23And, of course, we saw what happened in France with Marine Le Pen, and they're just going to say, and, you know, that again, that's going to be a European issue.
13:30They tried to do the same thing here with Trump, just stop him from even running.
13:34Luckily, we were able to get him across the finish line.
13:36But we see in Brazil, we see in France.
13:41I mean, we see this in Romania as well, where it's just like if you have, say, let's say just let's just say generally speaking, anti-establishment type of candidate.
13:49It's getting popularity and looks like they could get elected.
13:54The establishment moves in and just says, no, you can't even run.
13:57They just they just you can't even run or they just cancel an election like we've seen in other countries as well.
14:01So, I mean, that's a problem.
14:02I think Europe is going to be facing really.
14:05I mean, they're facing it now in France, but it could be other places.
14:07Now, now getting back to Tommy, is there a hope that he can get released soon?
14:13I mean, what do we I mean, I know you said they just had that hearing on Friday.
14:16We're going to get more details coming up this week.
14:18But what about Tommy's status?
14:20Are they trying to get him out?
14:21Are we trying to get this this this case through the works so we can get a conclusion?
14:25Where are we at there?
14:27I think he's supposed to be released in July.
14:30And so he'll be released early.
14:32It was a 15 month sentence.
14:34I think he'll serve.
14:36He'll have credit for time time served.
14:38I'm not an attorney.
14:39I'm not a British citizen, so forgive me for not quoting the fact and the law as it is.
14:47I'll be report filing report for BorderHawk.news tomorrow on the judge's decision.
14:53I believe their legal team is cautiously optimistic, though I don't want to speak for them.
14:59I know they're pursuing a multi-pronged strategy to both get him out sooner as well as make his
15:04treatment in the facility where he's at.
15:07H&P would help better.
15:10So hopefully they're successful along one or both prongs of their attack.
15:15Are there areas on the streets where this is intensifying?
15:21You know, I look at some of the situations in America where if you go to one of these college
15:25campuses and maybe you've attended an anti-Israel or pro-Palestinian protest or maybe you're even
15:32at one.
15:32There's a bit of a tension there, and I think there's even probably people that are maybe
15:38walking around with a fear that, oh, I attended this or I took place in this.
15:42You know, maybe somebody's coming for me.
15:45Is there anything like that going on in Europe?
15:47Do people that maybe have posted things or said things negative about Islam or the invasion
15:54of the European countries, do they kind of walk around, you know, looking over their shoulder,
16:00looking around the corner, wondering if they're next?
16:03100%.
16:04One of the co-contributors to Vox Populi, which I also file reports for, was a college student
16:10who posted something critical online and got the police visiting her at her door, and she
16:14was 20 years old.
16:16And she's one of 16,000 people that this happens to regularly.
16:19So the British have a very advanced technocratic surveillance system.
16:24When you take the train from London to Paris that doesn't stop, the Eurostar, they already
16:28have what Alex described yesterday, which is no boarding pass, just your scan your face
16:34and scan your passport.
16:36That system already exists.
16:37The British Transport Police is infamous for its total surveillance network and the tube
16:42system.
16:42So that whole identifying people and then associating them with their political speech
16:47is already here.
16:49It already exists.
16:51The question is, how fast does it spread?
16:53Where else does it go?
16:54How do we stop it in the US with Trump talking about real ID?
16:58How do we get him to back away from that?
17:00How do we not have another Patriot Act 2.0?
17:02How do we not have other movements that are affiliated with the liberty movement not fighting
17:08for racial animus and ethnic hatred and playing into this angrier world?
17:13How do we just reclaim our government and make it constitutional based upon all rights
17:18being equal treatment under the law?
17:20That's what I'm focused on.
17:22That's the message I want to bring to the Infowars.com audience is there are people here
17:27who are trying to fight for equal treatment under the law.
17:30Tommy is an icon because he's bringing a spotlight to the treatment of the native British and this
17:36kind of aggressive invasion.
17:38I mean, we're talking about grooming gangs for the love of God here.
17:42And he gets treated the way he gets treated.
17:44And if we don't stop it here, it will come to the US.
17:48I'm curious, too, because I see a lot of commentary in response to people that might feel the same
17:55way I feel or have said similar things like, well, I don't want to go to Europe.
18:00Europe is gone.
18:01You know, I don't want to go to some of these famous cities in Europe.
18:05They're gone.
18:05You know, say Paris, London, whatever.
18:07It's not it's not Europe.
18:08It's not it's not the country it once was.
18:11How much of that is accurate?
18:13How much of that is exaggerated from your experience?
18:17My experience is limited.
18:19I've been here for since July.
18:20So not even a full year.
18:22I will say it's shocking.
18:24I would say I agree and disagree.
18:26You could be in neighborhoods.
18:28London's ground zero for multiculturalism.
18:30There are truly enclaves.
18:32When you get off the train station and you go from London to Paris, you get off at Gary
18:36du Nord station and you walk down Strasbourg Avenue.
18:39And it literally does feel like you could be in any African country.
18:43I mean, I'm talking about hundreds of single military age black men standing around outside
18:49buildings and that's it.
18:51I mean, and that is that is immediately hits you in the face as soon as you exit the train
18:55station.
18:55Now, that's not everywhere in Paris.
18:57I was just there a couple of weeks ago.
18:58I was there for the Olympics.
19:00I live in London now.
19:01There's so much charm and magic in in Europe.
19:04So I don't think it's fair to say they're completely gone.
19:06I think that sort of fatalistic thinking gets gives into inaction.
19:11It prevents people from much like myself.
19:13I'm not a trained journalist.
19:15I just started making reports because I live on planet Earth and I want to experience
19:20liberty.
19:21And so I want that for my children.
19:23So I think we can't say anything's gone.
19:26I don't think any human being is beyond grace or forgiveness or change.
19:32I think it's up to us to really fight to keep the West the West.
19:36How much of this?
19:37Well, you mentioned keep the West the West.
19:39And I mean, if you want to just lay it out, the fact of the matter is that if this trend
19:46continues, there won't be any white majority, Christian majority countries left on Earth.
19:51That is just a fact.
19:51And I don't want to come into this racial debate right now about it, but that that is
19:55a fact.
19:55So is that by design?
19:57And then and then why would that be the case?
19:58But I guess I would close the interview with this in the last 90 seconds here.
20:01What we saw here was in America, people were coming here, taking advantage of the open
20:06borders, but mostly motivated by the welfare.
20:10They knew they could come here and get free stuff and get free health care, a roof over
20:14their heads, three hot meals a day, everything else.
20:16And so there was a motivation factor there.
20:17Is it similar in Europe?
20:19Do they get the similar benefits or do they just come because they want to get out of the
20:22countries they were in?
20:23I think it's two factors.
20:25And yeah, the racial ethnic thing for another time.
20:28But I think it's two things.
20:30I mean, London's a cold place and it rains a lot and it's not the Middle East.
20:33So why why then suddenly is it ground zero?
20:36Why is it a target?
20:37Well, I think it one it represents a cultural hegemony of claiming a cultural icon, a cultural
20:42territory if you're into the conquering and you know which political ideology slash religion
20:48I'm talking about.
20:49And then, yes, there's a very large welfare state here.
20:52It's tough to find a right wing person running for office over here that would even say cut
20:56Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, the equivalent over here being the welfare state.
21:00They're talking about making it better, increasing it, improving it.
21:04You know, Britain and London and England have suffered from decades of of socialism and they
21:09still haven't really ironed out all of that massive state type thinking.
21:13And so, yeah, I mean, Bradford, England, you go up there, it's majority Pakistani.
21:16A lot of these people don't work.
21:18They don't some you know, sometimes the imams even fill out the ballots for for people.
21:23So it's like, do they even vote?
21:25Is anyone even checking that?
21:26But I think absolutely the welfare capture coming to capture London, sit at home, get
21:32paid to do nothing, have someone else vote for you and live in the you know, what was
21:37a once great city as some sort of emblematic capture.
21:41But we got to be very careful.
21:42We need to pay attention.
21:43We need to learn from what's happening over here and take the lessons back to the United
21:47States to prevent this globalism and this immigration as a weapon from becoming.
21:53Preston Bates, thank you for your time.
