For years, the political and media class in this country have told us to look the other way. That it was “racist”, “irresponsible” or “misinformation” to ask uncomfortable questions about what is really happening in our own country.

Well, once again, today, the lid has been blown off.

Thanks to growing public pressure —pressure we’ve helped sustain, with your support—the state is finally starting to release new data and information.

Today, we have data on the number of foreign nationals who are behind bars in England and Wales, as well as the enormous costs this is imposing on you, taxpayers.

The numbers are nothing short of devastating.

This is no longer speculation. This is no longer opinion. These are facts.

And they reveal a deep and growing crisis—one that our elites have tried desperately to bury but which is now rapidly becoming unavoidable to the masses.

So, I wanted to talk you through what you need to know in one of our short, 10-minute videos, along with a transcript if you prefer to read.

Here’s a short clip of the video:



The full video, as part of our increasingly regular exclusive content for our paying subscribers, who make our work possible, is below. Or you can read the transcript.

Thanks. Matt
