“You Can’t Deport Us, We’re Already Here!” – British Anti-Immigration Activist Young Bob Reveals What Happened During Shocking Confrontation with Men He Described as Migrants
A young British anti-immigration activist has sparked fresh debate on social media after accusing a group of men he described as foreigners of attempting to attack him and steal his equipment during a confrontation.
The activist, known online as Young Bob, whose real name is Thomas Moffitt, shared details of the incident on X, formerly Twitter, where he regularly posts videos about immigration, deportations and political issues affecting Britain.
In his post, Young Bob quoted one of the men as saying, “You can’t deport us, we’re already here.”
He expressed anger over the incident and accused the men of behaving aggressively towards him and others who were present.
According to his account, the group attempted to assault them and take their recording equipment. He also criticised the police, saying officers did nothing to stop what happened.
The incident has attracted attention online, although the exact location, date and circumstances have not been independently confirmed.
Young Bob is an 18-year-old political activist who has gained attention online for his strong views on immigration. He supports what he calls remigration, a policy aimed at encouraging or forcing some people of foreign origin to leave Britain.
He has travelled to different parts of the country to speak publicly about immigration and debate people who disagree with his views.
This is not the first time the young activist has reported experiencing violence while discussing immigration.
In June 2026, he reported being attacked by a group of men during a public debate in Manchester city centre. He said he was punched, kicked and dragged to the ground while some of his camera equipment was taken or damaged.
The incident attracted widespread attention after videos appeared online. Greater Manchester Police reportedly arrested three suspects on suspicion of robbery and assault. They were later released on bail while investigations continued.
There were also different accounts of what happened before the confrontation, with some people accusing the activist of provoking those involved. Young Bob denied those accusations.
In September, the activist also faced protests during public appearances in Bristol and York, where people challenged his views on immigration.
Some protesters accused him of spreading messages that could divide communities, while his supporters argued that he should be allowed to express his political opinions without facing threats or violence.
His latest accusations have brought renewed attention to the growing tensions surrounding immigration debates in Britain.
The statement about already being in the country has also raised questions about immigration enforcement, although the nationality and immigration status of the men involved have not been independently established.
Under British immigration law, being physically present in the UK does not automatically protect someone from deportation or removal. Whether a person can legally be removed depends on their immigration status and individual circumstances.
Young Bob has continued to defend his political activities despite the opposition he faces. He remains active in campaigning against immigration and has also travelled to France to report on protests.
The latest confrontation has added to the wider debate about immigration, public safety and the right to express political opinions without facing violence.
However, there has been no independently confirmed police account establishing exactly what happened during this particular incident or whether any criminal offence was committed.
