GB News was paused for a breaking update on the migrant crisis, with presenter Martin Daubney announcing that local authorities are offering a "migrant toolkit" to help people enter Britain illegally. He began: "Breaking news. Tonight we can reveal that public bodies are recommending a pro-open borders UK migrant and NGOs online toolkit for illegal immigrants to help get their asylum claims accepted."

The GB News host claimed the channel's exclusive report found that three local authorities, Greater London Authority, Ealing Council and Hertfordshire County Council all recommend the toolkit. The toolkit, titled Right to Remain, is displayed on their council website and offers everything, including asylum system explainers. Daubney continued: "It somehow gets worse because they even advise illegals on what to do when their asylum claim is rejected."

Footage of the online toolkit was shown to viewers, with a female voice heard explaining: "Most people who claim asylum have a right to appeal. In the court, you will argue that the Home Office was wrong to refuse your asylum claim and that you should be granted protection in the UK."

It was also revealed that Right to Remain has the aid in several different languages to provide support for migrants who don't speak English.

Daubney added: "You might think this is a perfectly innocent educational tool to help those most in need, but we have more to reveal."

On the website, it is claimed: "Migrants are faced with a hostile environment, denying them basic rights and major obstacles to establishing their legal right to remain."

The presenter went on: "Right to Remain also runs a linked, grassroots campaign called 'These Walls Must Fall' which claims on its website that the border enforcement regime is a racist system," adding that their services have been used by a staggering 320,000.

The presenter concluded: "There you have it. The latest edition of the dark underbelly of the migrant crisis.

"Radical, left-wing charities and NGOs whose sole mission is to campaign for a world in which no one is considered illegal, providing a route into the country to hundreds of thousands of people from all around the world.

"And worse, it's being recommended by your local authorities."

The update sparked outrage among viewers, with one expressing their frustration by writing: "These charities and NGOs need to be held to account for facilitating illegal immigration."

Another demanded: "Those involved should be prosecuted and jailed."

"So they're aiding and abetting these people committing the criminal act of breaking in to our country," added a third as a fourth echoed: "Shut them down, deport or arrest."
