Alex Armstrong, speaking on GB News, has called for criminal migrants to "go home" following the case of an Iraqi goatherder caught selling cocaine in Wales.
"You come to the United Kingdom, and he said you want to come here for a better life, but you've joined a gang, you're distributing drugs, you're ruining these local communities. Go home," Armstrong stated firmly.
He criticised the current immigration system, arguing that British taxpayers are bearing the cost of overcrowded prisons.
"We've got to stop them," Armstrong insisted, echoing what he believes to be the sentiment of the British public.

The comments come in response to recent revelations about organised crime groups utilising asylum seekers in drug operations across the UK.
Hawre Ahmed, an illiterate goatherder from northern Iraq, was recently convicted for dealing Class A drugs in Aberystwyth, Wales.

Ahmed was part of an organised crime group that flooded the Welsh town with cocaine and cannabis.
The court heard that Ahmed had come to the UK "seeking a better life" after living under Isis occupation in Kurdistan.
He was sentenced to four years in prison for his involvement in the drug conspiracy.
The gang "embedded" trusted operatives in the town and used couriers, including a taxi driver, to transport drugs, cash, and people.

Many recruits were asylum seekers granted leave to remain in the UK.
Car washes and barber shops were used as "front" businesses for their operations. Armstrong's criticism extends beyond individual cases to the broader immigration system. He argues that British taxpayers are bearing the cost of overcrowded prisons due to criminal migrants.
"We're putting the taxpayer expense at the tens of millions. And we've got our prisons are overcrowded and now we're having to release criminals onto the streets," Armstrong stated on GB News.

He called for stricter measures, including deportation of criminal migrants. "Don't bring that here. I don't want those people in this country," he asserted.
Armstrong claims his views reflect public sentiment, saying, "successive elections this electorate has have said, the British public have said we don't want these people coming here.
"We want you to stop immigration. We want to stop the boats."
