Trump's team ‘concerned' after it emerged a secret Government unit silenced critics of migrant hotels
DONALD Trump's team are 'greatly concerned' after it emerged a secret Government unit silenced critics of migrant hotels. Staff working for Technology Secretary Peter Kyle asked social media firms to remove posts critical of asylum hotels and 'two-tier policing'. 2 Tech giants, including TikTok, were warned the posts were 'exacerbating tensions' on the streets after the Southport riots. A US State Department spokesman said: 'President Trump has taken a strong stand defending free speech. "We are monitoring developments in the UK closely and with great concern.' Nigel Farage this week demanded an apology after the TEch Secretary sensationally claimed he is "on the side" of paedos like Jimmy Savile. Peter Kyle sparked a blazing row by alleging the Reform Party leader's vow to repeal online safety laws amounts to backing predators gaining access to children. Mr Kyle declared: 'If Jimmy Savile were alive today, he'd be perpetrating his crimes online. "And Nigel Farage is saying he's on their side.' Furious at the inflammatory accusation, Mr Farage hit back, branding the comments "disgusting" and demanding a retraction. He fumed: "Peter Kyle's comments on Sky News are disgusting. "He should do the right thing and apologise." However, the Tech Secretary refused to back down, stating: "If you want to overturn the Online Safety Act you are on the side of predators. "It is as simple as that."
