Michelle Dewberry struggles to 'stay professional' as migrants jailed for raping girl: 'My blood is boiling!'

Expressing her outrage at the case, Michelle told GB News viewers: "I've got to tell you, first and foremost, I honestly, viewers, I feel I'm almost shaking internally.

"Because we cover these stories all the time now, and my blood tonight is absolutely boiling."

Expressing her thoughts for the victim and her family, Michelle said: "I do just want to say that my thoughts are with this girl that was with her friends, doing what teenage girls do. Just doing things in parks, hanging out with your friends and all the rest of it.

"You should be safe doing those things in this country. You should be able to do that in this country. But no, increasingly - honestly, I'm so angry - increasingly, as a woman in this country, we are starting to feel more and more unsafe.

"As parents in this country, we are starting to feel our children are at more and more and more risk, and when you start complaining about things like this, you are labelled in a nanosecond as far-right.

"When people locally who know the stories, who know what have gone on, they know the details, they know who these perpetrators are. When they take to the streets and say, no, we don't want these men in our communities, these pillocks with their counter signs are standing there chanting 'refugees welcome'."

Michelle fumed: "We see media stories time and time again. In this case, actually, we saw a media story that tells us that two 17-year-old boys from Leamington have been charged with this.

"The viewers sit there, you read these stories, you know these people are not from Leamington... I'm so angry."

Stressing the impact of the crime on the 15-year-old girl, the GB News host told her viewers: "And when you read the story of this family, this is a family absolutely destroyed.

"It's not just about this girl who has had her virginity stolen from her in the most repulsive way, her whole family have been affected by this. The girl now suffers from anxiety so badly that she is physically sick on a regular basis. And I'm supposed to be a professional, so I'm trying so hard to maintain my cool with this."

Turning to Reform UK's Head of Policy Zia Yusuf, Michelle asked him: "This is an issue that Reform campaigns about all the time. What do you think about this tonight?"

Mr Yusuf responded: "I share and echo your anger and fury, Michelle. Look, the reality is that all of this is downstream from the decisions that have been made first by the Tory Government and now the current Labour Government.

"These two are 17-year-olds that came here under this Labour Government. They said that they were going to smash the gangs, what has happened? Over 70,000 illegal migrants have arrived on our shores uninvited under Keir Starmer's regime."

He added: "That's up about 40 per cent year on year. And listen, all of this I'm afraid is reliably, predictably, the result of a policy which allows people to turn up on our beaches uninvited and then be granted free accommodation and free food, and get to roam around like this.

"The two that perpetrated this appalling act were staying at the taxpayer expense in a hotel. Afghans are 20 times more likely to commit sex offences than British nationals. Afghanistan is amongst one of the number one countries from which people, men coming to this country via a small boat are coming from."

Mr Yusuf warned: "This country, I'm afraid, is being invaded. It has happened for years now. The anger that we all feel in seeing all of this, I think there's only one answer to this.

"It needs to be reflected at the ballot box. We need to turf this Labour Government out, we need a Reform Government that will secure our borders.

"And, by the way, not just prevent any more boat crossings from coming, but anyone who came to this country illegally needs to be deported."
