Migrants not to be put near schools. Birmingham police go full woke. Trump Secret Service knew that there was a shooter on the roof. And in Australia, Digital ID has just come a step closer. That plus more in this morning's episode. Well, good morning everybody, and welcome to Friday's episode of Trending. Let's start here in the UK. Shabana Mahmoud, the Home Secretary, has banned asylum seekers from being housed near schools and nurseries in the UK. First question. If there's not a problem, why? If these accusations of increasing sexual assaults and so on around those places are not true and they're made up and they're all the work of far-right conspiracy theorists, then why? Simple question. If there's not a problem, why come up with a solution? Home Secretary Shaban of Mood has introduced new rules banning asylum seekers from being housed in new build homes near schools or nurseries. The measures were brought in following the backlash over plans to house more than 80 asylum seekers in 250,000 pound new build properties on a housing estate in Stoke Heath, Shropshire. The new build estate in Shropshire was earmarked for 21 homes for asylum seeking families. However, the MPs for the area have condemned the development as completely inappropriate. Stoke Heath is an isolated rural location with very few public services. So why would you put people that have just come into the country that don't have networks? Why would you put them there? This is the wrong way to look at it, and they will fight these plans. They've written to the Home Secretary to try and crack down. This crackdown of migrants being housed in their schools and nurseries comes amid a sharp rise in sexual offence convictions, not just accusations, convictions involving foreign nationals. Now, this comes down to the very simple situation that we have discussed multiple times on this show, which is two problems. You're bringing largely young adult men from societies that are very different, where women are treated and observed and looked at very differently in terms of their behavior, in terms of what they do, attitude towards them, and so on. You are then putting a demographic of people in a situation where right in front of them is a completely different way of living, and you're expecting there to not be problems. You're also putting them into communities that are very small, you're putting them into communities that will be predominantly British, versus when you go into the cities, they're already quite multicultural. Not in every case, but in many cases to those who live there already. That's going to create tension, that's going to create friction. And the second part, which is the problem, is you're not allowed to talk about that. If you observe that, then you're a racist, then you're a bigot, then you're Islamophobic or whatever phobia phobic you want to add on to it. When in fact, all you are is wanting to have a conversation because you're genuinely concerned about how your society around you has changed and not changed for the better. That doesn't make you a racist, that makes you an interested observer. So they're two of the major, major problems. And we've spoken about two-tier policing and a two-tier society. Well, the other part of that is these new quarter-of-a-million-pound homes that are being given to people who have essentially broken into the country, while there'll be people in this country who were born here, who have paid into the system their whole lives, who maybe have fallen upon tough times or were possibly born into less than ideal situations, that don't get afforded this opportunity. So for me, again, that comes down to basic fairness. And we've spoken about this previously as well that if you have a house with three bedrooms in it and you have two kids, you're not turfing one of your kids out so that you can take somebody else in. You wouldn't give an opportunity to somebody else's child before you'd give it to your own. Well, if we're using that analogy to describe the system, which is that the people that it's meant to represent, the people that have been there, the people that were born into that society, the people that have paid their dues, well, they should be the ones that are prioritized. And again, just to reiterate the fact this is not about race or ethnicity, I would say that that would be an appropriate act for every single nation on the world in the world. I wouldn't expect to go to another country and be prioritised over somebody who was born there, so other people shouldn't as well. And that would be completely fair. It's not unfair to think that you should look after your own first. So you're giving away you're also, you're also, which is a big part of it, you're also rewarding people for breaking the rules. Because these people have essentially broken into the country, they have illegally entered the country. So as a result, they shouldn't be receiving anything like this. They've broken the rules. So why are they being rewarded? But the major conversation around this is that we're told there isn't a problem, yet they're changing the rules and they're changing the policy to protect against a problem that we're told doesn't really exist. Well, according to figures, foreign nationals accounted for 14.1% of sexual offence convictions, including rape, despite making up around 11% of the population. So obviously, those two figures don't correlate. Um, the government has said it has reduced significantly the use of asylum hotels. Yeah, it has, but they've not sent those people back to countries that they've um originated from. They've moved them into more permanent accommodation, which means what? It means they're not going anywhere. Asylum seekers were being housed in hotels, uh, up to 20,000 in March. That's down around 30% on the previous three months. A further 73,000 asylum seekers are living in alternative accommodation, including houses in multiple occupation and former military sites. Home Office Minister Alex Norris told MPs on Monday that a further 20 asylum hotels had closed, reducing the total use to 170 when it was at its peak at around 400. But where are those people now? Have they all been sent back to their country of origin, or are they now in military bases or other forms of intent of temporary accommodation? I think we both know the answer to that. So closing hotels hadn't changed anything. In fact, it's it's in a sense it's done the opposite because the hotels were a very obvious visual representation for people of what was going on. Whereas when people are put into military bases, when people are put into temporary accommodation in the community, that's not as easy for people to see. It's not as easy for people to see the problem in terms of the amount of money that's being spent, in terms of how communities are being changed, that outcome people will observe. So these houses or that were meant to happen in Stoke Newington Stoke Newington, nearly there. Um what's this place called? Stoke Heath, that's it. Stoke Newington's London, isn't it? Stoke Heath. Obviously, they've heard about this, and as a result, there's been backlash, but if it was too late and these people already in those homes, it's much more difficult for people to be moved once they're already settled. So people wouldn't have had necessarily knowledge that this was going to happen, but they'll have known the outcome. And this is something that's happening right across the country. You know, every time an old building gets renovated, people immediately assume and immediately think that's going to be housing migrants, and in many cases it is. There was a situation with with Gareth in the place that he lives, where there was a building that was renovated right opposite the school, and the public backlash was so severe that they were forced to come out and say nope, nope, and work stopped. And this has happened right across the country. Right across the country. And it's it's very clear to see that the outcome they want to create is is division, is outrage, uh, and also what they want to create is a very changed British society. A hugely changing society for a number of different reasons. And they're doing it. And another key point is, as I said earlier, the cities have always been, or certainly have been for the last decade or so, very multicultural when it's come to ethnicity, faith, all of those things. The countrysides haven't been. The countrysides have retained much of their British traditions. You know, whether whether you want to laugh about some of them, you know, village fates and things like that that are very traditionally British. You know, we still in this village still have an ice cream man that comes around when the sun's out. You know, things that you might laugh at and say, what's the importance of that? But it's it's a very traditionally British lifestyle. And all of a sudden, smaller towns, even big villages, are starting to see the impact of an influx of people with different ideologies, with different mindsets, with different faiths that are coming in and changing the way that those places are being. And I don't think it's unfair for people to ask some questions about that. In the same way, I don't think it would be unfair if 10,000 Brits suddenly descended on a small town in Austria and decided to turn it into Blackpool. I don't think that's acceptable either. And that's the point that's missed by so many is that this is not just about Britain. This is not just about England, it's not just about one country and one ideology, it's about basic respect for the fact that every culture has exactly that, a different culture. And if you're going into that nation, if you're going into that culture, then you should observe respect for the one that you are going into. And it's not unfair for the people, the indigenous people of that population, to expect that. It's not unfair, it's not racist, it's not bigoted, it's extremely justified to want that. So you're adding in so many factors to this conversation where you're adding in you're rewarding people for breaking into the country illegally, you are accepting there is a problem with the behaviour of certain immigrants because you are shutting the accommodation near schools and nurseries because you think there's a problem, and also the fear of parents of what's going to happen. Just admit there's a problem then. Admit there's a major problem, have an open and honest conversation with the public about it, stop calling everybody a racist, and you might get somewhere. But unfortunately, with the arrogance of politicians, particularly politicians on the left these days, where they don't care what you think. Because this woke ideology, which is that I'm right, therefore you must be wrong, and if you're wrong, who cares what you think? Which we've seen so many in the Labour Party have, and Andy Burnham is the king of, so good luck, sleep well when he gets in, we get shut down. We get ignored. Well, that can't happen forever, because anger is brewing and brewing and brewing and brewing, which will bring us to our next story, which is exactly the outcome that they want. So, to carry on listening, click the link below and head over to iconic.com. We're gonna talk about Birmingham Police, which is a bizarre story. We're gonna talk about the Secret Service and their advanced knowledge of Trump shooter being there on the roof, and we're gonna talk about digital policing down in Australia. I'll see you over there.
SPEAKER_01Don't mention the wrecks of those days. Even less is said about the Grey Pope, who some believe to be the true ruling power in the Vatican.
SPEAKER_00Humans are missing a macadress.
SPEAKER_01All of them had little sickness. I've never seen it before. This is the ultimate suicide cult. What if the symbols around us every day aren't just ornamental? We lost a thousand years of eastern. What if they're instructions?
SPEAKER_00That state of awareness is not manipulatable.
