Britain has two justice systems, and this week the people of Portsmouth saw both of them.

For years, the small boats were Dover's problem. It's the shortest crossing from France, so that's where the smugglers went. Around Portsmouth, Gosport and the Solent, you might see a warship, a ferry or a yacht. Not dinghies packed with men who had paid criminal gangs to break into the country.

Not anymore. This month, about 140 migrants were brought ashore at Eastney. Days later, crowds gathered at Gosport Marina waiting for another boat. The smugglers have found a new route, and it runs straight into the south coast.

The people have voted against mass immigration again and again, and every government promised to stop the boats, but have failed to do so. So the people of Portsmouth came out.

The consequences are real: hotels housing hundreds of unvetted young men on the taxpayer's dime, plans to move thousands more into former military bases near small villages, and grooming gangs that abused thousands of girls in Rotherham, Rochdale and Telford while officials looked away, some afraid of being called racist.

Go Ad Free

Which brings me to Danny Tommo, a roofer and father of four from this area. He's accused of cutting a migrant dinghy in the Channel after its passengers had been removed, and is charged with criminal damage. He has pleaded not guilty. At Portsmouth Crown Court, he was refused bail for the second time. He's back in a cell at HMP Winchester, and his trial isn't until March.

Now look at Fairford. Early Sunday, near an RAF base used by American bombers, a local farmer spotted three vans and a group of men, some with their faces covered. Five were arrested under the Explosives Act on suspicion of preparing an act of terrorism. Homes were evacuated and the bomb squad was called in. By Monday, all five were out on bail, and their names remain secret.

On Fairford, Prime Minister Andy Burnham urged people not to speculate. On Danny, he went on the BBC and said it was "hard to conclude that he's anything other than someone who has racist views," while admitting he hadn't read everything Danny said. The terror suspects get privacy and the presumption of innocence. The roofer gets a cell and a prime ministerial smear. That isn't a slogan. It's a pattern.

And I'll say it every time: the answer is never violence. Our side wins when it stays peaceful, because that's when the double standard is impossible to hide.

Danny reached out to Tommy Robinson, and Tommy reached out to Ezra Levant. Rebel News is helping Danny get a proper defence, because every migrant on that dinghy will get a lawyer paid for by British taxpayers, and a British father deserves one too.

Portsmouth won't be the last town to learn what Dover already knows. The only question is whether Britons will be allowed to say so out loud. What do you think? If you believe it matters that Rebel News is on the ground here, because this could soon be Canada, please chip in at MigrantReports.co.uk.
