A British YouTuber was arrested after he tried to live stream footage of boat migrants being loaded onto coaches in Dover before they are taken to be accommodated in hotels at taxpayer expense.

A citizen reporter who goes by the name Active Patriot was recording the scene from a public car park when he was aggressively approached by police.

"I'm showing the world what is going on mate," says the reporter, to which the officer responds, " I think the world knows."

"Do they really? They don't know what extent, though do they?" Active Patriot responds.

At first the officer claims he is arresting the man for trespassing but then suddenly changes the reason to "breaching the peace."

After the man complains that his arm hurts even though he is not resisting arrest, the officer responds, "Give me your arm, or I'll put you on the ground."

Steve Laws, another citizen reporter who has been documenting the migrant arrivals, told Politicalite, "I saw 74 illegals being toed into poet by the border force from 8am to 11am."
