I just identified and chased a people smuggler from the boat onto the beach with the gendarmes, and they had opportunity to arrest him and they did not. I got so close to him while running. I could’ve tackled However, I’m sure they would’ve arrested me instead The footage should be incredible

An illegal migrant boat has just left France for England 7:30 AM French time The French lifeguards attempted to hand over life jackets to the waiting illegal migrants and had the audacity to ask me to move away, as they wanted to do it secretly and not be filmed At one point during the crossing, a lifeguard was very close to aiding a migrant onto a boat, another chaotic crossing

The more people who see the reality of this situation the better Everyday more and people are waking up
"People are prepared to resort to all kinds of tactics to make sure they get their spot." Former UK Border Force boss Tony Smith says migrants will go to extreme lengths to secure a place on Channel dinghies, after exclusive footage appeared to show one man brandishing a knife.

GOOD NEWS AND BAD NEWS! 😂😂😂 Good news: My trip has been extended by a day. Bad news: My trip has been extended by a day! 😂 Sunday is looking promising, so why not stay? Everything I learnt during September’s month-long expedition is finally coming together. Belgium was a major objective, and I’m proud of what I captured, although arriving 10 minutes late at 3am and missing the actual launch still bothers me! Self-criticism is a blessing and a curse. Today was supposed to be a write-off. Instead, I captured two boats and an illegal migrant pulling a large knife during a confrontation. I’ve still got plenty of footage to review, some of it even better in my opinion. Tomorrow is another gamble! A massive thank you to every single supporter. It genuinely means a lot. And finally, my camera has miraculously survived its bath in the sea! 😎😂 Below is part of today’s crossing to show what actually happens. Adrian

ILLEGAL MIGRANT PULLS LARGE KNIFE ON SMUGGLER BOAT BOUND FOR BRITAIN! Hardelot-Plage, France | 30 October 2026 Extraordinary footage I captured this morning on the French coast. An illegal migrant attempting to board a smuggler’s boat heading for Britain became embroiled in a furious confrontation with a smuggler already on board. What happened next was staggering. The migrant pulled out a large knife, approximately 6 to 7 inches long, and appeared to prepare to stab the man on the boat. But as he drew his arm back, he DROPPED THE KNIFE INTO THE WATER before he could strike. And here’s the astonishing part. Despite everything that had just happened, he subsequently managed to climb aboard the very same boat. A man pulls a large knife, appears ready to stab someone, loses his weapon and then boards a boat bound for Britain. All captured on camera. Watch the footage. Draw your own conclusions. This man is now most likely in the UK!

I just caught an illegal migrant pulling out a large knife to attack a smuggler on a boat We all thought these people armed, and now I believe I have proof Footage being downloaded now Just another average day in the water on the French coast By first glance, it looked about 6 inches No joke, intended

Looks like a busy night of crossings to the uk Who can honestly say it’s migration when under the cover of darkness That’s not a normal and should be something to be concerned about

Answers No I wasn’t arrested today I don’t know why Ay etc was arrested I stayed away and filmed for Ay and guys as reference only. I haven’t heard anything yet I don’t take any pleasure in seeing anyone locked up it’s a disgraceful thing to take pleasure in and if you do then please unfollow me Manners, morals and integrity are important even on Twitter Up at 1am so off for a sleep A great day turned sour by seeing that happen to them and hope they are out soon

🚨 LONG TERM PROJECT PAYS OFF! ILLEGAL MIGRANT BOAT LAUNCH FILMED FROM BELGIUM! An incredibly tough and challenging project that finally paid off and after reports of weapons also carried some risk Full, unedited 8-minute video. At around 3am this morning, I filmed a migrant boat launching from a Belgian beach, just across the French border, heading towards the UK. Belgian authorities were present and appeared to watch as the boat departed. I’ve spent months documenting crossings from France, but this is the first time I’ve captured a launch from Belgium. As far as I’m aware, this could be the first time such a launch has been caught on camera. I’m sharing the full footage so people can see exactly what happened and draw their own conclusions.

Not everyday Nigel Farage quote posts you 😬🙏
The boats are now launching from Belgium. The Belgian authorities, like the French, are just standing and watching. This boat is even custom-made to match the Kurdish flag. The gangs are laughing at us.

EXCLUSIVE: MIGRANT BOAT LAUNCHES FROM BELGIUM AS AUTHORITIES STAND AND WATCH 29th October 2026 | Belgian-French border | Approx. 3:00 AM local time What I believe could be the first ever footage of an illegal migrant boat launching from a Belgian beach, just across the border from France. But the real story isn’t the boat. It’s the Belgian authorities standing there watching it happen. No visible intervention. No attempt to stop the launch. Different country. Same scenes I’ve witnessed repeatedly in France. Two countries, one border, and the same question: what exactly are the authorities doing to stop these boats?

CRAZY SCENES IN GRAVELINES, NORTHERN FRANCE! A large group of illegal migrants openly making their way through this small, beautiful French town towards the beach. I suspect they are preparing for an attempted crossing to Britain tomorrow. No authorities in sight. No oversight. No attempt to hide. Just another extraordinary scene unfolding in broad daylight. Gravelines, France | 28 October 2026

LOON-PLAGE, FRANCE | 28 OCTOBER 2026 The people living next to the illegal migrant camp are paying the price. I’ve just had a long conversation with a husband and wife who have lived in Loon-Plage for over 20 years. They are devastated by what has happened to their area. The illegal migrant camp on their doorstep, the bus stops crowded with illegal migrants and what they describe as a complete lack of action from the local authorities. They have two teenage daughters and expressed the same fears and concerns I hear from families back in England. They told me house prices have plummeted and that the authorities are doing nothing to address the situation. We agreed that this is not simply a British or French problem. It is a European problem. They also expressed the view that those arriving illegally should be returned to their countries of origin. It was refreshing to have a proper, open conversation with local residents, but deeply sad to hear how they feel their home and community have changed. These people have lived here for over two decades. They haven’t moved. The situation around them has. And approximately 100 metres from where we were talking, a busload of illegal migrants was waiting for the free bus towards Calais at 5 pm. We spend so much time discussing the people arriving that we risk forgetting the people who already live here. Their voices deserve to be heard too. Adrian
