00:00Some people decided to spend their Saturday supporting prescribed terrorist organisation
00:04Palestine Action down in London's Parliament Square.
00:07The Met Police, who you can see here getting to work, they did a great job today, by the way.
00:11They arrested 42 people, mostly for allegedly showing support to the group
00:15who were prescribed after they broke into RAF Bryce Norton and damaged military aircraft last month.
00:22Tonight, I won't be focusing on the arrests at today's protest,
00:25but actually the calibre of some of the people who did attend it.
00:28I wanted to share the footage with you because I think it paints a clear picture
00:32of the kind of people we're dealing with when it comes to this growing
00:35and, quite frankly, tiresome Israel-Gaza situation.
00:38They are radical leftists who have absolutely no concept of reality
00:42and who are, in some cases, actually quite nasty.
00:45The day kicked off with this guy who ran over to me and tried giving me some journalism tips.
00:50Say what you said to me again. Sorry, just for pace it. Sorry, we're recording.
00:52You said, Ben...
00:54Don't push a certain narrative. You're a journalist.
00:57You should just be impartial.
00:59What's my narrative?
01:00Be like an observer.
01:02What's my narrative?
01:05You tell me.
01:06No, you came up to me and said, don't spin a narrative.
01:09So what's the narrative I'm saying?
01:10The arrest is happening now.
01:12All right, so you've come up to me and said, don't spin the narrative,
01:14but you can't tell me what my narrative is. Is that all right?
01:16No, I know it, but I want you to explain it.
01:18All right. You don't know it, do you?
01:20You don't know it?
01:20I've heard a little bit, so I want to know more.
01:22What have you heard? Tell me what you've heard.
01:24You said that those people are supporting a terrorist organisation.
01:29Well, they are.
01:30Palestine Action is a prescribed organisation, yes?
01:33At the moment, yes.
01:34Right.
01:34So are they supporting a prescribed organisation?
01:38I can tell.
01:39That's up to the police.
01:40Wait, come on.
01:40Let's just be straight.
01:42You just said they're a prescribed organisation,
01:44and they're supporting one.
01:46Well, it depends.
01:46So did I tell the truth?
01:48You'll have to go to each one individually and see what they think.
01:51Okay.
01:51We'll end it here.
01:52I think I've proved my point.
01:53Good luck.
01:54Go and talk to them.
01:55You came up to me saying I'm spinning a narrative.
01:57You couldn't tell me what the narrative is.
01:58Yeah, based on what you said earlier.
01:59Then you said I'm spinning something there,
02:00but you just agreed it's a fact.
02:02Based on what you said earlier, yes.
02:03All right.
02:03We'll try again a bit later.
02:04Thanks, man.
02:05Good luck.
02:06Okay, so that was the first guy.
02:08Elsewhere, I'm going to suggest that there are actually a few unbalanced people
02:11down there today as well,
02:12including this guy, who we'll see more of later,
02:15who told me I have no soul.
02:18I'm going to say something to you.
02:19Yeah.
02:20Do you believe is he a genocide?
02:22In Gaza?
02:23Yeah.
02:24I know.
02:25No.
02:26And I believe you.
02:27You're not a human.
02:28You haven't got a soul in you.
02:29I don't want to talk to you.
02:30Oh.
02:31That's all I can say.
02:32Okay.
02:32Is that a genocide?
02:34Okay, this is GB news.
02:35I know.
02:37Did you, um,
02:38so you only,
02:39so you only,
02:40so you only speak to people
02:41who you,
02:45who shares your argument,
02:46is that right?
02:47Excuse me.
02:48You're saying he's on genocide, man.
02:49What the heck?
02:50What would you say?
02:51I just want to know what your thoughts were.
02:52You were talking,
02:53you were talking to me off camera.
02:55My thoughts are,
02:56from Kashmir to the sea,
02:57Palestine and Kashmir,
02:58Iran must be free.
03:00That's it.
03:00You want to hear more?
03:01Yeah, I'd like a chat.
03:02Yeah.
03:04Unfortunately,
03:04he's spitting on me,
03:05but there we go.
03:06No, don't, don't.
03:06So I took my soulless body
03:11to speak to this next guy
03:13who was heckling the fact
03:14I worked for GB news off camera.
03:16He thought the fact I did so
03:17was evil.
03:19Are you nervous?
03:19Why are you shaking?
03:20I don't know.
03:21I, I,
03:21when I get in the presence of evil,
03:23it makes me slightly anxious sometimes.
03:25I'm all right.
03:26I'm a,
03:26I'm a Christian.
03:26I think,
03:27I think people who invade military bases
03:29in the UK
03:29and cause millions of pounds
03:32worth of damage
03:32and they have caused millions of pounds
03:34Why did they do it?
03:35Why did they do it?
03:35That's besides the point.
03:36Why did they do it?
03:37Why did they do it?
03:38Because they're opposing
03:39what's going on in Gaza.
03:40If it's in a just cause.
03:41Of course there is.
03:42Okay, so you,
03:42what do you think about the suffragettes?
03:44You support criminality.
03:45What do you think about the suffragettes?
03:45Sir, we need,
03:46what do you think about the suffragettes?
03:46This won't work unless we have a conversation.
03:48No, no, it doesn't work
03:49because I'm not feeding your narrative
03:51that somehow,
03:52that somehow I'm not your friend.
03:54I'm really, really not your friend.
03:56Believe me,
03:57I am not your friend.
03:59The unpleasantness continued
04:01with this lady
04:02who was heckling Met Police officers.
04:04But when they didn't oblige,
04:05they carried them out
04:06by their hands and their feet.
04:07A lady there,
04:08maybe 50, 60 years old,
04:11being taken,
04:12being taken into the back of the van.
04:14Tensions rising here
04:15between some media
04:16and coppers.
04:18Let's see if we can speak to some protest.
04:21Do you think what you've just seen there is wrong?
04:23Who's talking to you?
04:24Move, irrelevant.
04:25Do you think what you saw there is wrong?
04:28You disagree with it?
04:28You're deaf.
04:29I said, I don't want to talk to you.
04:30Why are you so angry?
04:31It's a nice...
04:32I asked this next lady
04:34if she thought Palestine action
04:35should have been prescribed.
04:38Sorry, I don't negotiate with terrorists.
04:40You don't negotiate with terrorists?
04:42No.
04:43What, Palestine action?
04:44No, yourselves.
04:45I'm a terrorist.
04:46Good.
04:46What have I done that's terrorism?
04:51And this next lady
04:52who I'm about to show you,
04:54she ran off
04:55to try and get me in trouble
04:56with the police
04:56for daring to ask her a question.
04:58I asked her the question specifically
05:00because as you'll see
05:01from the clip you're about to see,
05:02she was filming me
05:03with her mobile phone.
05:05Yes, not.
05:06Hello.
05:06You can get me to genocide.
05:08Why are you here today?
05:09Do you mind me asking?
05:10Do you think Palestine action
05:14should have been prescribed?
05:15There's a lot of disagreement about that.
05:17Do you think they should have been prescribed
05:18a terrorist organisation?
05:25Stop harassing me, please.
05:27Okay.
05:27This man is harassing me.
05:29Can you do something about that?
05:30How is he harassing you?
05:31He's putting that thing on my face.
05:32I asked you a question.
05:33You could have said go away.
05:35You could have asked me to go away.
05:35Walk away from him.
05:36Walk away from him.
05:36And he came around me.
05:39So you don't care that he's harassing me?
05:41And I saw you do exactly the same
05:43as your family on his face.
05:44Because he came around me.
05:46Because he came around
05:47and put the thing on my face.
05:48He's not there now.
05:49He came around me.
05:49We can all carry on about our day.
05:51So we can go stay for a day.
05:54But even more chillingly,
05:56this next guy told me that
05:57everyone should support Hamas.
06:01Israeli terrorists.
06:02Israeli terrorists?
06:03Yes.
06:04Okay.
06:04He has to be arrested.
06:06Are Hamas terrorists?
06:07No.
06:08No?
06:08They are defending their country.
06:10Defending their country?
06:11They are fighting for their freedom.
06:12Israel is the occupier.
06:14Are you saying you support Hamas?
06:16Yeah.
06:17We support the people
06:18who liberate Palestine.
06:19Hang on.
06:19Are you saying you support Hamas?
06:20No, no.
06:21I'm not for Hamas.
06:21We support the people
06:22who liberate Palestine.
06:24All right.
06:24I'm going to go.
06:24So you don't support Hamas?
06:26We support the people
06:27who liberate Palestine,
06:28who fight for Palestine.
06:29And who oppose Israel.
06:31Okay.
06:33Can you give a straight answer?
06:34So do you support Hamas or not?
06:36Why should you give a straight answer?
06:38I am giving you
06:39that we support people
06:39who liberate Palestine.
06:40You said Hamas
06:41is defending their country.
06:42Yes, they are supporting their country.
06:43Yes.
06:43So you support what they're doing?
06:44I don't say I support.
06:46They are defending their country.
06:47Everybody should support them.
06:48Everybody should support them, apparently.
06:51And talking of Hamas,
06:52this woman seems to have forgotten
06:54what happened in Israel
06:55on October the 7th.
06:57You can't condemn Israel
06:58for killing babies and civilians
07:00and at the same time
07:01not condemn Hamas
07:02for doing the same thing.
07:02That's my point.
07:03Hamas hasn't been doing this
07:05since 1948.
07:06So what happened on October the 7th?
07:09Did babies and civilians
07:10die on October the 7th?
07:14And the fact you don't have an answer,
07:17the fact you don't have an answer
07:18is telling.
07:19There we go.
07:20Very telling.
07:21Two's here.
07:22Hypocrisy.
07:23And the day concluded
07:24with our friend,
07:25the shouter, again.
07:27Later on,
07:27he and a photographer friend of his
07:29ran over to me
07:30after the police
07:30escorted us to safety
07:31when a mob surrounded me
07:33and my cameraman.
07:34And after sticking up a finger at me,
07:36he bizarrely asked
07:37who I like sleeping with.
07:39He kicks off every time.
07:42I'm done.
07:43Hello.
07:43Let's play cat and mouse.
07:45Let's play cat and mouse.
07:48Hello.
07:49I'll smile for the camera.
07:49There you go.
07:50Cheese.
07:51Are you gay?
07:53Am I gay?
07:54I know you guys.
07:56Are you looking for a date?
07:56I know.
07:57Are you looking for a date?
07:58You're not my type,
07:59unfortunately, mate.
08:00Sorry.
08:01I'm Muslim still parties.
08:01You're not my type, brother.
08:04Sorry.
08:05What's that?
08:05Maybe next weekend
08:08I might be tempted.
08:09You'll have to pay me, though.
08:12I don't think Muslims like gays, anyway.

10:1042 arrests,
10:12support for a prescribed organization,
10:13but equally as concerning in my book
10:15is the swathes of support from people
10:17who don't seem to have a brain cell between them.
10:20Well, let's get the thoughts of my panel now,
10:21the former Labour special advisor, Paul Richards,
10:24former Scotland Yard detective, Peter Blexley,
10:25and the journalist and broadcaster, Linda Jubilee.
10:28Good evening, panel.
10:29Hope you've all enjoyed the sun.
10:31Linda, we'll start with you.
10:32Ladies first, what's your take on,
10:34A, the demonstration today,
10:36the fact that people are supporting
10:37a prescribed organization,
10:38but, B, the selection of attendees
10:40I just shared with you there?
10:42Well, the fact is, it's a prescribed organization,
10:46prescribed as terrorists.
10:47They've caused millions of pounds of damage
10:49at Bryce Norton, which is a military base.
10:53That's it.
10:54End of.
10:55They're terrorists.
10:56That's it.
10:57OK?
10:57So there's no discussion about that.
10:59The fact of the matter is,
11:01they witter on about having a just cause.
11:04Now, and then they compare themselves
11:06to the suffragettes.
11:07I don't think there's any comparison there at all.
11:09It's just so annoying.
11:10What's the difference, then?
11:12Because that guy who I was trying to speak with,
11:14but he was, you know, intent on interrupting me
11:16and not having a conversation,
11:18and then said I was evil.
11:19Well, one of the differences...
11:20He was saying the suffragettes did the same thing.
11:22Well, one of the differences is
11:24that the suffragettes knew exactly
11:26what they were protesting about.
11:28They knew exactly what they wanted to get,
11:30which was the vote for women.
11:31They knew exactly how they were going to try and get it,
11:34which was mostly protest by peaceful means.
11:36And that is not the same as going to Bryson Norton
11:40and spray-painting aircraft
11:42that are supposed to be defending our nation with paint.
11:45Yeah.
11:46Because that does have a serious effect on the engines as well.
11:49I've been told that.
11:49Right, £7 million worth of damage.
11:50Paul Richards, what's your take on all this?
11:52Well, I think the tragedy and the irony
11:55is that these people put the likelihood
11:59of Palestinian statehood further away.
12:02So the cause that they espouse,
12:04which is a legitimate, democratic, pluralistic state
12:07for the Palestinian people,
12:09has been fatally undermined by these kinds of idiots.
12:12And there is a weird psychosis on the left,
12:16the cosplay, the putting on the scarves,
12:18all of this sort of rhetoric,
12:20largely motivated by anti-Jew feelings,
12:24sort of hatred towards the Jews, anti-Semitism.
12:27And the great irony is also they think they're the good guys.
12:30Yeah.
12:31So they think they have the moral high ground
12:33when they are espousing views which are morally repugnant.
12:35And they're always just so nasty as well.
12:37I mean, I'm not a sensitive Sally,
12:38but, I mean, it is people on the left who, Peter,
12:41who are always very vicious, very nasty,
12:44quick to try and shut you down, censor you.
12:46I mean, I did a report with Dawn Neeson in the day
12:48and they came and draped me in Palestinian flags and so on.
12:52Ben, on a beautiful, sunny July Saturday afternoon,
12:57when you could have gone the length and breadth of the country
13:01to a village fete, to a church fair,
13:05to the glorious and magnificent Wimbledon,
13:08or to Lourdes where there was a test match on.
13:10You could have gone to the Cotswolds.
13:11You could have had strawberries and cream.
13:13You could have had a slice of Victoria sponge
13:16and a lovely cup of tea.
13:17But no, you went to Parliament Square
13:20to be surrounded by that vermin so we don't have to.
13:24Thank you very much indeed.
13:26That's where you're going with it.
13:27Thank you. I'll take that.
13:28Thank you very much.
13:29I was wondering...
13:30On a more serious note,
13:31there were a couple of concerning clips in there,
13:33one including the guy who seemed to say he supported Hamas,
13:36then clocked on what he was saying
13:38and tried to water it down and dilute what he was saying.
13:41I mean, that's worrying, isn't it?
13:42My note was serious, Ben,
13:44because everything I mentioned was the very best of British.
13:48And that rabble are the very worst that we have to offer,
13:52supporting a prescribed organisation.
13:56I'm delighted that the Metropolitan Police have acted today
13:59and have arrested so many.
14:01I think there is some blame laid at their doorstep
14:04for appeasing the Palestinian protesters previously.
14:08But today, clearly, they arrested people in numbers
14:10and I'm delighted.
14:12But can I just say very, very quickly,
14:14because I was watching it live this afternoon
14:15when you were down there, bravely facing these people, Ben.
14:19But there was one guy who said,
14:21you know, you asked him about terrorism,
14:22he said, well, it depends on what you mean by terrorism.
14:25Do you mean legally, the legal version,
14:27or do you mean the technical dictionary version?
14:29I thought, for goodness sake!
14:32Terrorism is terrorism!
14:34It comes, actually, from...
14:35Well, that guy said terrorism,
14:37in his definition, was just a threat to life.
14:40No, that's not.
14:40Well, that's not what it is.
14:41That's not what it is.
14:42But, I mean, I wonder if those sort of 50-odd arrested,
14:45how many are sort of just, you know,
14:46middle-class do-gooders who've been brainwashed...
14:49Well, they all were. I saw them.
14:50..who are now...
14:50You know, their lives are ruined
14:51and may well face criminal...
14:53Well, they may fill prison sentences, actually.
14:55Oh, how delightful a prospect that is!
14:58Yeah.
14:58And they were...
14:59I mean, they've been arrested and proceedings are active,
15:01so you need to be careful with what they're saying.
15:03But, I mean, you're not wrong.
15:04They were of...
15:05I mean, one guy was sort of 50, 60,
15:07another lady I saw getting bundled into the meat wagon.
15:09These are Guardian readers
15:10who've somehow fallen in with this crowd
15:11and, you know, for two years now have been brainwashed.
15:15Now they're going to face all kinds of charges.
15:18Credit to the Met Police today.
15:19There was an incident with...
15:20I'd just finished doing a piece with Dawn Neeson in the day.
15:23We went off air and suddenly, like a swarm of wasps,
15:26we were surrounded, my cameraman,
15:28our security guy who was with us,
15:30we were swarmed.
15:31And it got a little bit tetchy.
15:32And the Met Police, Peter...
15:33I do... I have a go at the police from time to time.
15:36I do respect them, but I criticise them when they deserve it.
15:39But today, they were brilliant with us,
15:41they really helped us out
15:42and we, you know, were allowed to get out of there quite safely.
15:45And then when they had to, they nicked these people.
15:47And do you know what?
15:48If any of those people that surrounded you
15:51had got gloved up and entered a ring,
15:53which none of them would do,
15:55they wouldn't last a millisecond.
15:57What, with me or you?
15:58Either of us.
15:59They are cowards.
16:01It is mob rule,
16:03the tyranny of a minority mob rule.
16:07And well done, the Met, for acting well.
16:09You know what?
16:09I think I might stand a chance as well if I put the gloves on.
16:12Well, probably not wrong.
16:13Right, panel, thank you very much.
16:14Great start.
16:15Let us know what you think at home.
16:15GBNews.com forward slash your say.
16:17I can see all your comments coming in.
16:19Lots of you calling them renter mobs.
16:20Actually, that's a great point.
16:21Maggie, you've said that.
16:22Good evening, Maggie.
16:23They are renter mobs.
16:24I said earlier today, before we move on,
16:26I recognised two or three of these protesters today
16:29from being on just a royal protest from last year.
16:32They were the same people.
16:33So I don't know who's funding them,
16:34where they're from, who's coordinating it,
16:36but that was a fact.
16:37So I don't know who's going to be on just a royal protest from last year.
