[Brigitte Gabriel @ACTBrigitte]

In Hamtramck, the first Muslim-majority city in America, an all-Muslim council just legalized backyard animal sacrifice.

The non-Muslim minority showed up to object.

They were outvoted.

This is not “diversity.”

The new majority rewrites the rules to reflect its own sacred practices, and the old norms become optional.

Local democracy just delivered a very clear message about who now owns the public square.

Senior source in the asylum system reckons there are over 1 million rejected migrants in UK. Home Office has no idea where they are.

Attempts to remove them are pathetic. A few thousand to Albania whom we pay.

How much longer can people be expected to put up with this?

🇬🇧🚨 BRITAIN: FOLLOW. THE. BLOODY. MONEY. 🚨🇬🇧

While ordinary British families are told there is “no money”…

No money for roads.

No money for high streets.

No money for local services.

No money for struggling communities.

Councils across Britain have been quietly spending MILLIONS OF POUNDS on Hostile Vehicle Mitigation infrastructure.

You might know them online as “diversity barriers”.

The official name is:

HOSTILE VEHICLE MITIGATION — HVM.

And I have started going through the public records.

The numbers are extraordinary.

🇬🇧 BIRMINGHAM

💷 £3,000,000

An ADDITIONAL £3 MILLION approved for further HVM measures.

And where did some of the money come from?

CLEAN AIR ZONE SURPLUS.

Yes.

Money generated through Birmingham's Clean Air Zone was approved for additional hostile-vehicle security infrastructure.

THREE. MILLION. POUNDS.

🇬🇧 YORK

💷 £1,832,000

Approximately £1.832 MILLION allocated to the city-centre HVM programme.

Steel bollards.

Sliding barriers.

Security-rated vehicle restrictions.

More than £1.8 MILLION.

🇬🇧 HOUNSLOW

Original allocation:

💷 £570,000

Then another:

💷 £170,000

TOTAL:

🔥 £780,000

For HVM around Hounslow High Street and Bell Square.

🇬🇧 WORCESTER

Permanent HVM capital allocation:

💷 £250,000

But here's where it gets ridiculous.

Temporary HVM for the 2019 Victorian Christmas Fayre alone cost:

💷 £36,500

ONE CHRISTMAS FAYRE.

And council records show temporary HVM had already been used for previous Christmas Fayres.

Year.

After year.

After year.

So eventually the council concluded permanent infrastructure could make more financial sense.

🇬🇧 HEREFORD

HVM design-and-install contract:

💷 £202,830.29

More than TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND POUNDS.

🇬🇧 EDINBURGH

Temporary HVM framework provision:

💷 £79,218

And remember:

TEMPORARY.

Meaning this isn't necessarily the end of the bill.

Transport.

Installation.

Traffic management.

Staff.

Storage.

Maintenance.

Servicing.

Replacement.

The barrier you see in the street is only the visible part of the spending.

🚨🚨🚨

WE HAVE ALREADY IDENTIFIED MORE THAN £6 MILLION IN HVM FUNDING AND COSTS FROM JUST A SMALL NUMBER OF AUTHORITIES.

Read that again.

£6,000,000+

And this is NOT the national total.

Not remotely.

We haven't yet completed:

London.

Manchester.

Liverpool.

Coventry.

Newcastle.

Walsall.

Rotherham.

Bedford.

Major railway stations.

Stadiums.

Airports.

Government buildings.

Major festivals.

Hundreds of councils and public bodies.

And here is the part every taxpayer should understand:

THERE DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE ONE SIMPLE NATIONAL PUBLIC LEDGER SHOWING THE TOTAL BILL.

The money is scattered everywhere.

💷 Capital budgets

💷 Highways budgets

💷 Regeneration programmes

💷 Event-security budgets

💷 Transport funding

💷 General-fund contingency

💷 LEP funding

💷 Clean Air Zone surplus

Different authority.

Different budget.

Different procurement portal.

Different contractor.

Different year.

And unless somebody goes through the records and joins the dots together…

YOU NEVER SEE THE WHOLE PICTURE.

That is exactly what we are doing.

Council by council.

Contract by contract.

Tender by tender.

Pound by pound.

Because British taxpayers have every right to know:

HOW MUCH HAS THIS COST?

Who approved it?

Where did the funding come from?

Who received the contracts?

How much does maintenance cost?

How much are temporary barriers costing every single year?

And what is the TOTAL national bill?

🇬🇧 THIS IS WHAT PUBLIC ACCOUNTABILITY LOOKS LIKE.

No rumours.

No made-up numbers.

No conspiracy theories.

Their budgets.
Their minutes.
Their contracts.
Their procurement records.
All hiding in plain sight.
We have barely started.
And already:

🔥 £6 MILLION+ IDENTIFIED.

Now imagine what happens when every council in Britain is put into the ledger.

EVERY COUNCIL.

EVERY CONTRACT.

EVERY FUNDING SOURCE.

EVERY POUND.

Britain deserves to know where Britain's money is going.

🇬🇧 FOLLOW THE MONEY.
🇬🇧 BUILD THE LEDGER.
🇬🇧 HOLD PUBLIC BODIES TO ACCOUNT.

This is only the beginning.

🚨 MEGA AUDIT: RAF WETHERSFIELD — WHO IS INVOLVED, WHO IS BEING PAID, AND WHO RUNS THE NETWORK?

We have started following the money around RAF Wethersfield in Essex, it is not pretty....

This is not simply an accommodation centre.

Residents have access to organised sport, football and cricket, fitness sessions, art activities, English-language support, gardening, mentoring, healthcare, welfare support, advice services and community programmes delivered by a mix of contractors, charities, CICs and public bodies.

It is an ecosystem involving a private Home Office contractor, government departments, councils, healthcare, security, national asylum-support organisations, charities, CICs and voluntary organisations.

Here is what the public record currently shows.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

💰 THE SITE

RAF Wethersfield opened for asylum accommodation in July 2023.

The original estimated refurbishment/setup cost was approximately:

£5 MILLION.

The revised estimate became:

£49 MILLION.

Nearly TEN TIMES the original estimate.

And nationally, the NAO found contracts worth approximately £254 MILLION had been used to identify, design and operate large asylum sites.

Approximately £244 MILLION of that value was awarded WITHOUT FULL COMPETITION.

That does not itself establish wrongdoing.

It does raise an obvious taxpayer question:

How was value for money demonstrated?

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🏢 THE MAIN OPERATOR: CLEARSPRINGS READY HOMES

The Home Office confirms Clearsprings Ready Homes operates Wethersfield.

Companies House currently records active directors:

• Steven Frank Lakey
• Daniel Williams

Clearsprings sits at the centre of the operational system.

But the complete Wethersfield-specific amount paid to Clearsprings is one of the figures we still want disclosed.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

💷 LOCAL GOVERNMENT MONEY

Braintree District Council receives Home Office funding connected with Wethersfield.

The Large Sites and Vessels Grant pays:

£3,500 PER NEWLY OCCUPIED BED SPACE.

Reporting based on council figures says more than:

£3.7 MILLION has been received in connection with Wethersfield since 2023.

That is local-impact funding — NOT the total cost of running the site.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🎨 ART REFUGE

Registered charity 1114353.

A reported £14,125 from a ring-fenced Home Office-funded £50,000 local scheme went to Art Refuge for Wethersfield-related provision.

Current trustees listed by the Charity Commission:

• Dr Chris Wood — Chair
• Anna Jane Castleton Simmons
• Timothy Michael Richards
• Polly Bagnall
• Dr Kathryn Cronin

Art Refuge has provided arts-based activities connected with Wethersfield.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⛪ ST VINCENT DE PAUL SOCIETY
Registered charity 1053992.
Reported Wethersfield allocation:

£17,490 for English, art and gardening provision.

The Charity Commission currently lists 13 trustees, including:

• Elaine Heyworth — Chair
• Peter McGauley
• Patricia Nobbs
• Anthony James McGuigan
• Suzanne Anita Motha
• Clare O'Brien
• Elizabeth Creevy
• Monica Chidgey
• Winston Waller
• Gustavo Vas Falcao
• Nasha Pierre
• Dr Stephen Gill
• Mark Graham Branch

Again: this £17,490 is the identifiable Wethersfield-related allocation — NOT the charity's entire income.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

⚽ CHANGING LIVES COMMUNITY SERVICES CIC

This one is particularly interesting.

CLCS publicly says it works AT RAF Wethersfield in partnership with:

• Home Office
• The FA
• Essex County Council

Its Wethersfield provision has included football, cricket, fitness, mentoring and educational activity.

Companies House currently lists its directors as:
• Ben John Doyle
• David Jonathan Simmons
• Aaron James William Strachan
The precise amount attributable to its Wethersfield operation still needs establishing.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧳 CARE4CALAIS
Registered charity 1169048.
Care4Calais has been involved in supporting Wethersfield residents and campaigning/litigating over conditions and suitability of accommodation.
Current Charity Commission trustees:
• Sim Eldem
• Wilfred Hide Sullivan
• Dr Iain Duncan James McHardy Overton
• Sarah Grace Edith Blakemore
• Matthew Demwell
• James Frederick Nichol
• Emma Rose
A Care4Calais drop-in has also operated from Salvation Army premises in Braintree.

IMPORTANT:

We have NOT established that Care4Calais received money from the £50,000 Braintree scheme.

Its involvement and its funding are separate questions.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🩺 MÉDECINS SANS FRONTIÈRES UK

MSF has operated a Wethersfield healthcare project alongside Doctors of the World UK.
MSF UK is itself enormous.
Latest Charity Commission figures for 2024:

TOTAL INCOME:
£95.3 MILLION

TOTAL EXPENDITURE:
£89.8 MILLION

225 employees.
Current trustees include:
• Kathleen Poole
• Julie Ann Weston
• Dr Peter John Garrett
• Sabrina Liang Ai Das
• Dr Caroline Bwango
• Prof Bertrand Olivier Taithe
• Edward James Mortimer Monk
• Timothy Douglas Symington
• Iesha Singh
• Jehangir Dhunjishaw Ghandhi
• Dr Innocent Muleya
• Emery Pacifique Igiraneza
• Dr Rachael Mary Craven
• Christopher John Peskett

But be clear:

£95.3m is MSF UK's TOTAL organisational income.

It is NOT £95.3m spent at Wethersfield.

The Wethersfield-specific cost remains to be established.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🩺 DOCTORS OF THE WORLD UK

Registered charity 1067406.
Works with MSF on healthcare provision connected with Wethersfield.
Current trustees:
• Mark Brython Ward
• Dr Steven Lloyd
• Dr Nikita Kanani
• Julia McDonald
• Philomene Uwamaliya
• Colin Brett Herrman
• Avril Lee
Again, its total charitable finances must NOT be represented as Wethersfield expenditure.
We want the project-specific figure.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

📞 MIGRANT HELP

Migrant Help forms part of the national Home Office asylum-support infrastructure.

It is involved at Wethersfield and residents can access its support.

This sits alongside Clearsprings rather than replacing it:

HOME OFFICE
↓
CLEARSPRINGS
↓
ACCOMMODATION / SITE OPERATION

while separately:

HOME OFFICE
↓
MIGRANT HELP
↓
ASYLUM ADVICE / ISSUE REPORTING / SUPPORT

We are now isolating exactly how much of Migrant Help's national contract expenditure can properly be attributed to Wethersfield.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🏥 THEN THERE IS THE STATE INFRASTRUCTURE
Also involved around Wethersfield are:

• Home Office
• Braintree District Council
• Essex County Council
• NHS bodies
• Essex Police
• Essex Fire & Rescue
• East of England migration infrastructure
And the Home Office confirms the site has:

• 24/7 specialist security
• healthcare
• catering
• welfare
• transport/support arrangements
• maintenance/site management

But some of the most important supplier names and Wethersfield-specific contract values are still not clearly disclosed in the headline public information.

THAT is where we go next.

Around that core sit:

Some are government contractors.
Some receive specific public grants.
Some are independently funded charities.
Do NOT conflate the three.
The investigation is to establish exactly which is which.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
❓ THE QUESTIONS NOW GOING TO GOVERNMENT
We want:

Total taxpayer expenditure on Wethersfield since 2023.

Current annual operating cost.

Cost per occupied bed per NIGHT.

Total paid specifically to Clearsprings for Wethersfield.

Name + value of the 24/7 security contract.

Name + value of the healthcare contract.

Catering costs and supplier.

Transport costs and supplier.

Maintenance/facilities-management costs.

Every NGO/CIC/charity receiving public money attributable to Wethersfield.
Police, NHS and council costs.
Forecast cost of operating the expanded site.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
And remember how this started:
ESTIMATED SETUP COST:
£5 MILLION.

REVISED:

£49 MILLION.

The Government originally promoted large sites as an alternative to expensive asylum hotels.

The NAO subsequently concluded that, under the programme assumptions it examined, the large-sites programme was projected to cost MORE than the hotel alternative.

Now Wethersfield is being expanded.

FOLLOWING PUBLIC MONEY.
Company by company.
Contract by contract.
Grant by grant.
Director by director.
Until we can answer one question:

Buckinghamshire Council's SEND school transport payments to one taxi firm rose 11.4x in four years: £310,397 to £3,550,151.

All payments to the firm: from £1.17M (2021) to £6.18M (2025), according to the council's own FOI figures.

The contracts behind that money? Almost none are published. The accounts for the firm? Incorrectly filed in a way that obscures any useful details. 🧵
