Police in the United Kingdom have arrested about 1,024 anti-mass migration protesters, with 575 of them charged with “inciting disorder” or “stirring up hatred” on social media. The figures are far higher than the number of human traffickers detained last year.
According to reports, protesters have been convicted for petty reasons such as yelling at the police. Some were nabbed for posting “inaccurate information” about the migration-background suspect in a deadly mass stabbing in Southport, which sparked the current unrest. Some of those arrested are children, including at least two boys aged 11 and 12.
Since early August, rallies have been held in numerous towns and cities all over the U.K., including major cities like London, Glasgow, Belfast and Manchester. This included outside the London office of Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer had earlier warned of implementing draconian measures against the protesters when the disorder began. He condemned what he called “far-right thuggery” and promised charges and convictions, “whatever the apparent cause or motivation”, and said those participating in violence, including those “whipping up this action online,” would regret it.

Meanwhile, human traffickers have been arrested at a far lower rate by the British government with Home Office statistics showing only 246 arrests last year along with just 86 pilots of small boats transporting illegals across the English Channel.
Last year, nearly 30,000 illegals crossed the channel in small boats, but very few were arrested for the offense of “illegal arrival.” Even factoring in arrests for illegals working without a permit, arrests totaled just 380 in 2023.
Starmer claimed that he would take action on the channel crisis, but so far this year, over 33,000 illegals have attempted to or succeeded in reaching England, with a significant uptick in crossings since the Labour Party took over from the Conservative Party.
Critics accuse Starmer as well as the prosecutors and the law enforcement of two-tier justice, with mobs of Muslim counter-demonstrators able to harass journalists and attack white Britons as the police adopted a hands-off approach in consultation with so-called “community leaders.”
Moreover, the new Labour government has already scrapped the Rwanda deportation plan for the 18-year-old British citizen suspect, who has Rwandan parents. This would have seen illegal aliens transported to the African country to claim asylum, wasting hundreds of millions of taxpayer pounds already spent readying the scheme.
Weeks since anti-mass migration protests erupted in the U.K., the government is poised to enact an emergency plan to avoid overcrowding in jails, according to reports.
“Operation Early Dawn” is a long-standing plan that allows defendants waiting for a court appearance to be kept in police cells until prison space becomes available.
Reports indicate that prosecutors are trying to accelerate court cases of people accused of involvement in the recent riots. To date, 927 people have been arrested in connection with the serious disturbances and 466 of those were charged by last Monday.
Chairman of the Prison Officers’ Association Mark Fairhurst predicted an “Operation Early Dawn” announcement could come as early as Monday.
“I can say with confidence at some point this week, because they’re so short of spaces, Operation Early Dawn will kick in,” he told Sky News, adding to describe the operation as “essentially a triage system for prisoners held in police cells.”
He said that they would only take those prisoners to court for whom they could guarantee a prison cell. This means that only the most serious offenses will be heard in court.
“But if somebody needs to be in prison, they will be in prison, we will find a space,” he said.
