- “We’re in the phase of draconian policing at the moment.”
The government must get to the core of why UK riots are happening, and the police are going too far in their response, claims Ben Habib, former co-deputy leader of Reform UK.

The fact that politicians and the media are asking "why is this happening", shows how detached from reality they really are.
Oh yes
@@TheHerrUlfI agree. Because we still have racists among us.
@@stratchat6834 this obsession with "racists" must stop. Watching the videos of the people on the demo in London. There was people off all racies there getting on with each other. If there was racists there then that would not be the case.
😂
Habib understands clearly why it's happening, he's saying that the Government needs to stop and ask itself why it's happening.
Look at the arsonists trying to put out there own fire .
Since when did the police protecting people property and lives become something to deplore? Or applying the full force of the law to rioters and thugs and looters?
Cos it's Habib's Riots.
I don't deplore police protecting people. What I deplore is police deciding to treat some people different to others. The two examples coming to mind: 1) Arresting people who have not done things then letting them go without charge because of it. 2) Not acting when people are on the streets with large knives that are clearly illegal. With the decision to do this based on race.
@@MrStevetmq
Fake News. You are racebaiting.
i see alot off labour supporter in the comments section ,not going to get in a arguement with them.but hope they are 1st people to take in immagrants in there homes and also give a thought for the oap that will be suffering from coldnest because labour dont want to pay any winter fuel for them but want to pay to make sure immagrants are look after.end off
You might want to invite a migrant to live with you for the next 3 months or so. They could in every likelihood assist you with the quality of your English which let's face it, is diabolical. If you are going to post comments on You Tube or anywhere else for that matter please check them. An even better idea would be to let an adult check them for you.
And also think about the simmering resentment of the victims of the grooming gangs and those who find it hard to stomach theatre there was such a cover up for so long…these things were not addressed and so they come up when there are triggers …
@@theinngu5560Rioting will not be tolerated
Amazing. In the one headline RIOT and DRACONIAN POLICING. Antithetical methinks
We know what the causes are.
Yep. Racists
Was the Muslims brandishing swords peaceful were they 😂😂😂😂😂
The police are overwhelmed they are not riot police.
What/who do you think "riot police" are? In the UK we do not have different police forces based on the role they have to do. "riot police" is just a name we give to police who have put on the protection of the gear like helmets.
He’s so correct. Why doesn’t TR interview someone that speaks for the protesters? Always talking about the issues, never the issues.
I guess a few of these rioters could phone into LBC tomorrow morning.
I'm sure that would show us exactly what they are.
Because if you interview them, everyone will see they can't string a sentence together.
@@drummingtildeath - you’re right. The biased liberal media would undoubtedly chose the least capable to interview and try to undermine their position. It doesn’t actually invalidate their cause though. That’s why it’s not going away and will I get stronger.
What possible value does Mr Empire Heritage bring to the conversation? Is he calling on thugs to stand down? Is he willing to doff the tie and jacket and walk up to the thugs mid-kickoff?
Ben Habib is spot on, you are too cowardly to face the real problems.
@@genoajames1866Starmer's facing them right now. Down with the far right!
Blokes a complete tool
I agree with tough policing, follow up arrests and tough sentencing which the government have announced in response to these riots. I would though like to know why none of these things were announced after the riot in Leeds a couple of weeks ago.
@Dibley8899no, a response to an escalating and coordinated attack
I think the people in Leeds damaged things for one night. I think these people are trying to set fires to hotels with people inside. It seems a bit different to me.
@@robhugo3900different to the hundreds of m men last night in Birmingham attack cars and pubs and reporters, guess what not 1 police officer in sight FACT.😂
@@kevinsheahan5449didnt see the police running away from the white rioters as they did in leeds before it spread to the entire country. Its the polices two tiered response that has spread this violence
@@kevinsheahan5449the police were up for a fight and now theyve got one, they ran away from BLM in bristol and romanians in leeds but never run away from white working class unrest
So lighting off flares at a “protest” is now acceptable behaviour ?
@@copaloadofthis has been since 2020 when leftists did it in Bristol, and the mainstream media applauded them.
Was at every other protest the government established that they kowtow to violence now they have to reap the whirlwind.
When BLM rioted they said “we need to look into why they are so angry and LISTEN” and made excuse for them… why are they not doing so with the Patriot Brits!
This interviewer is obvious on what side he is on!
If only the Tories and Labour had protected the borders.
Stressing views of Ben Habib "l“Let’s not infantilise these people, they have free will,” Mr Habib said. “I’m not going to be held to ransom by their claim that they deserve protection as soon as they get into our territorial waters.
“If they choose to scupper that dinghy, then yes, they have to suffer the consequences of their actions.”
Ms Hartley-Brewer asked: “Then you would leave them to drown?”
“Absolutely,” he replied. “They cannot be infantalised to the point that we become hostage to fortune.”
Ok, tells us all we need to know about this man.
You can house the young migrant men in your home if you are so virtuous.
@@JordanSchultzDERidiculous comment. You don't have to house someone to prove you care about them. Do you have any homeless veterans living with you?
@@candyman5912I do , next
@@candyman5912no you just have to expect everyone else to go without housing to house them

That's pretty pathetic

To the radio presenter, I watched over 1 hour and a 1/2 of video of the London demo and at the end I watched at least 20 people that were standing, talking and then arrested for nothing including the person who made the video. Yes I understand and agree that if someone was/is violent, then they should be arrested. However that was not the bulk of arrests. It is also not right that groups of people where moved in to small ares and not allowed to leave/go home/disperse. At that point I could tell all of them in that space would be arrested no mater how peaceful and in fact by the time the person tacking the video was arrested about 8 of the 20 or so people in the small area had been arrested.
This police action was wrong.
What about the 2 tier council houses 20 % indigenous... Is this fair...
if the rioters were brown or black he d criticize the police for not being forceful enough. what a clown.
Because they’re not supportive of our country.
Because if the rioters were brown or black the police would be running away like in Leeds.
The Manchster thugs who broke a woman coppers nose and bloodied her haven't been charged because of their skin color. You are a clown.
@@jimthompson9370Your whites-only racist "our" banned.

Enough is enough, deal with the extreme right and end their threat or suffer the consequences to democracy later. Stop giving these idiots and opportunists a soap box.
and the extreme fare left, there are two sides to a coin
@@daveberry2177 Extreme far left? A few hippie Marxists toppling a statue is hardly on a par with this.
You realize in about 30 years muslims will become the majority in this country. What do you think will happen to our democracy then?
@@daveberry2177 agreed!
Well said.
This is a disgrace. Apologism for extremist violence. This man is despicable and you are only amplifying his bad faith arguments.
Ben Habib is spot on, you are too cowardly to face the real problems.
😂hilarious bahahahaha 😂
He is not apologising for violence…not at all. He condemns violence if you drop your agenda and listen to him. If you only treat the symptoms and not the roots, you may , if lucky, suppress the symptoms for a while , but they will again arise and the wise see that and try to address the roots. Without addressing the roots, the symptoms will get increasingly worse until we get civil war. Is that what you want. Listen again to him several times he says he never advocates violence.
@@theinngu5560Well said.
@@genoajames1866fake news
We live in the best country in the world. Quite honestly if you can't make a crust here then you would struggle somewhere else. I love living here just as it is. Politicians and media need to keep things in perspective because who would live anywhere else?
😂
@@edaleman2758 who would give up that easily? You can hear the knees of men all over the country as they stand to face these racist thugs
@@edaleman2758 do you hear that sound?
That's the knees of men across the country standing up.
By what metric can Britain today be classed as the best country in the world? I fully agree, that as a landmass, fertility and climate wise etc., it is practically the promised land... yet our society, our civilisation, I don't think we can claim to be "the best" with a straight face, the economy is shot, farmland being left fallow, our industry all but gone, housing or land of any sort completely unaffordable to millions, homelessness rife, a growing underclass of lost youth locked in their rooms staring at screens, massively divisive, sectarian issues with new arrivals as seen recently and governance that is rapidly moving toward 1984's ingsoc. ...Not to mention a majority that doesn't know their neighbour's name let alone support any kind of cohesive sense of community. Don't get me wrong, like you, I love this land, oh so very deeply, but I think its time we stopped pretending all is well, yes tis not the English way to complain but remember that old quote: "All it takes for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing." ...Well evil is prevailing far too often today, too often dressed as virtue too and denying it will not stop its rot.

They speak the truth.

@@robhugo3900 “Think for yourself”.
Okay: Labour government cuts winter fuel allowance for pensioners who have paid into the system for decades, and yet manage to find money to house, feed, and give benefits to illegal immigrants.
Done thinking: Farage and Reform are right. We need to take our country back. Now.
@@robhugo3900 Yes because nobody else could possibly ever benefit from less immigrants. Meanwhile the billionaires are using mass immigration to depress wages and socialists are cheering them on like the sheep they are.
@@robhugo3900so you want mass immigration every year and constant illegal migrants 120 people per day day. Is that good for a small island with 70mil in it.
Lots of comments on this video have been deleted.
If people are being arrested for no reason then of course there needs to be answers. No doubt there is frustration on the police side but care must be taken
.
Don't back down England fight labour is useless we in Europe see what's happening we are with you
They need to get smarter.
you need to be prosecuted
Fight who? The Police? Using the anonymity of the internet to encourage violence. Pathetic fool.

Why are you talking to these terrorists?
This person bears some responsibility for all of this. I hope some day he comes to realise this.
*Ben is a clown*
Ben has absolutely nothing when he's not allowed to wildly speculate in an information vaccume.
Should work for Times Radio then.
These righty figures are so hypocritical. If a left wing protest makes too much noise they demand harsh action, but here they say we should listen to these people and understand their beef.
Habib should go for a drink with these good ole boys and see how pleasant they are.
One could use the same argument about many of these "lefty" figures. Hypocrites everyone of them.
He doesn't have the intelligence to walk out.
Habib's a disgrace.
He knows
He is to blame bigot lee, Ben n Nigel... Lol
Great patriots indeed. Your voting patterns have likely caused the decline of the UK to the state it is in today.
'Oh so English' Benny is a master of FAFF (Fred Astaire Fancy Footwork) when it comes to spouting deflections and misdirection.
Why are you talking to this non-entity? Seriously, he doesn't merit an interview.
Of course Mr. Ben.
Personally a birching post on site might have been not too much a punative response.
Eating right before you speak is disgusting.
Habib so predictable.
