What I Learned
1. “I Won’t Defend Leftists” - Why Britain’s Most Controversial Bodyguard Refuses Half His Clients
Fred has turned down lucrative security work because of politics. When asked if he’d protect someone with different views, he was blunt: “If it was a leftist or a communist? I wouldn’t defend them. I’m not going to help them accomplish their goal where everything’s equal, everything’s boring and stale and rubbish.”
Unlike most security professionals who work for anyone with money, Fred only protects people whose worldview he respects. He explained that working in security is one of the few jobs where you can be “politically incorrect” and get away with it -because when violence is on the table, employers care more about competence than your Twitter history.
He’s built a career on being the guy influencers bring along when they’re deliberately going to “places where hostile people are” because he’s “not afraid of the consequences.” For Fred, protecting someone isn’t just a paycheck. It’s an endorsement.
2. Mass Immigration Is “Replacing Western Europe’s Population” - And It’s Deliberate
Fred believes the immigration crisis isn’t incompetence. It’s a coordinated plan to “smash Anglo culture” by flooding Western countries with people from everywhere until “everyone’s from everywhere and no one’s from anywhere.”
He argues that when you house migrants in hotels, give them free everything, and tell them the jobs they’ll eventually get pay more than their home countries, “it’s just a no brainer, really. What if I gave you a million pounds for nothing? Would you have it? Obviously you would.”
Fred sees this as a deliberate strategy to “deracinate people from their culture and religion” so they lose their identity and fighting spirit. He pointed to France banning the niqab as an example of how “you have to fundamentally change the nature of England” to stop it - but that would require the kind of authoritarianism the UK has historically rejected.
The incentive structure, he argues, guarantees the outcome: “If you encourage people by giving them loads of free stuff, they’re going to come.”
3. Islam Is The Only Religion That “Demands You Act How They Want” - And That’s Why It’s Incompatible With The West
Fred argued that Islam is fundamentally different from other religions because “Islam demands that you like what they like and you act how they want you to act,” whereas Christianity says “you commit sins, and when you die, you’ll be judged” -but the judgment comes later, not now. He explained that “Islam punishes behavior it sees as bad and seeks to force people to change,” while Buddhism and Hinduism don’t have that enforcement mechanism written into their texts.
Fred pointed out the irony of “Islam will dominate” slogans when “Sunnis don’t even view Shias as being Muslims, full stop.” He cited an Arabic saying: “I am against my brother, my brother and I against my cousin, my cousin and I against the stranger.” His conclusion? Muslims in the UK can be unified against the common enemy (Western culture) for now, but “let’s say they did take over the UK eventually - it’s going to be the wrong kind of Muslim.”
Fred believes the West’s permissive culture allows Islam to exploit freedoms it would never grant others, like wearing niqabs (which he compared to balaclavas for hiding identity during crimes). The solution would require abandoning core British values - which is exactly the trap.
