The protesters gathered outside the Royal Beach Hotel in Hampshire, Southsea on August 1st, shook the flag and asked for the hotel to close.

In places like Portsmouth, Southampton and Bournemouth, anti -immigrant demonstrations have been held in the south of England today.

Our priority with protests is always public security.

In April 2022, Portsmouth News reported that the hotel will only be used to host immigrants until August that year.

Since local residents protested that they are used as asylum accommodation, tensions are now shed for three years.

The hotel was targeted by the first activists of the far -right Britain in 2022.

Founded by a former British National Party politician, the group members were taken at the hotel as a part of what they called a ‘pose’.

Speaking at that time, LIB Dem Assembly Member Gerald Vernon-Jackson called on the residents of Southsea to meet those who needed the services of the hotel.
