Ellie Goulding says she is ’embarrassed to be British’
In a TikTok video re-shared to her Instagram Story yesterday (September 3), Ellie posted a clip that showed a group of people carrying Union Jack and England flags while aggressively shoving each other around.
Police officers could be seen standing in front of the main doors of the hotel to help stop the protestors from walking in.
“Embarrassed to be a Brit right now,” Ellie captioned the clip before sharing her views on anti-migrant protesting in the UK.
“They say it’s for the “women and children”,” she wrote in a follow-up Story.
“I’m a pretty tough girl but when I think about the times I’ve been the most intimidated in London or anywhere else in the UK, whether on the tube/ train or walking with friends late at night, it involves those kinds of Briths men either after a night at the pub, post boxing or football match.
“Stop using immigration as an excuse to be appalling and if you really want to stand up for this beautiful country go and get a National Trust membership for real.”
Ellie’s opinion arrived soon after Rylan Clark faced huge backlash for sharing his views on immigration in the UK while hosting This Morning. It was later revealed that hundreds of viewers complained to Ofcom.
