00:00Refugees are welcome here.
00:07On the streets.
00:13Refugees are welcome here.
00:17Refugees are welcome here.
00:19Please stay.
00:24What do we do? Stand up, fight back!
00:31It's so disconnected, isn't it?
00:35But you know that he thinks the same as we do,
00:38so he hasn't lost it.
00:40I just think it's really important to show that, yes,
00:42there may be some right-wing people around,
00:44but actually this community is really united.
00:46They really believe in supporting refugees,
00:49in looking after vulnerable people,
00:51and this is the loveliest community I've ever lived in.
00:53I've been here for 20 years.
00:56I think that they have seen that Walthamstow is a community
00:59that acts together.
01:02It's a very, very welcoming community.
01:05Obviously, we absolutely welcome refugees,
01:07we welcome migrants.
01:08I'm a civil partner to one,
01:10and I think the far right have probably seen
01:13that they shouldn't try.
01:16Thank you!
01:22Thank you!
01:23Refugees are welcome here!
01:25Thank you!
01:26Thank you!
01:27Refugees are welcome here!
01:34So today we were just at a protest outside a refugee centre
01:40because there was supposed to be a demonstration by the EDL,
01:45and they were going to attack this centre
01:48based on the fact that it's an immigration centre.
01:50And so the community came out today to help protect the refugees
01:55and let them know that they're welcome
01:57and that we wouldn't allow these fascist thugs to attack them.
02:02Thank you!
02:03Thank you!
02:04Thank you!
02:05Thank you!
02:06Thank you!
02:07Thank you!
02:08Thank you!
02:09Thank you!
02:10Thank you!
02:11Thank you!
02:12Thank you!
02:13Thank you!
02:15Thank you!
02:18This is Birmingham.
02:19It's a proud city, black, white, and brown.
02:23All sorts of religions, all sorts of nations.
02:26And it's times like this where we all stand together,
02:30and we stand against racism, Islamophobia.
02:35We stand against that as one.
02:38Thank you!
02:41But we have to be clear,
02:43I'm in Robinson, no one has to turn to that.
02:46An absolute beacon that says to people in place.
02:51And what we've had is, rather than our rulers saying,
02:54blame the person with the yacht.
