A sign stating 'Protect Children From Rape Gangs' is held by an anti illegal immigration protester outside The Roundhouse hotel, on August 09, 2025 in Bournemouth, England. Protesters and counter-protesters have gathered outside hotels being used to house asylum seekers in recent weeks, as tensions flare over the government's policies on illegal migration, which has reached record numbers this summer.
