Up next in 10
LB takes a look at:
Ceder Court Hotel,
Denby Dale Rd,
Calder Grove,
Wakefield,
WF4 3QZ
While in the area, I decided to take a quick look at this location, particularly in light of the recent incident where @Exciteaudits was assaulted and pushed down a flight of stairs.
The visit began with a brief drone flight over the hotel—at no point did I step foot on the premises. Despite this, security personnel started taking photos of me, a member of the public standing lawfully on public land, without any prior engagement or conversation.
During the encounter, we also captured some notable exchanges between the security guards in another language. I’d encourage viewers to contribute their own translations of what was said, as public conversations of this nature are always open to scrutiny.

You can do whatever you want. I don't have these information, my friend. Well, if you're working for them, I think you will do.
0:11
[Music] Hey up and welcome to the channel.
0:19
[Music] What another migrant hotel, the Cedar
0:24
Court in Wakefield. I wasn't going to come here cuz it's been loads of people
0:30
have been here but of recent events I've decided to.
0:37
So this place was exposed by Yorkshire Rose
0:43
active patriot and truth hurt with a kitchen big boy burgers and then ay
0:50
audit has been as well to visit the hotel inspector.
0:56
So over the last couple of days, over the last couple of days, another
1:02
local resident, Excite Audit, came and he was assaulted trying to visit the health club.
1:10
So I've come to investigate that as well.
1:17
So the more about the hotel.
1:28
So more about the hotel in the mid 2023 they were proposed to double the
1:34
capacity from 148 to 306
1:40
asylum seekers stay in. There was a tragic incident in September 2020 for me where somebody was found
1:46
dead in the hotel grounds by suicide. That's not a good look for anybody for
1:52
the hotel. Say good luck. It's not good for anybody to be pushed to do that. So
1:57
hopefully they've it wasn't to do with the living conditions or any of the abuse he suffered.
2:04
So I've just put a cheeky little drone flight up from this public footpath that
2:10
runs around the back of the hotel. I'll put that up now.
2:15
Take it to the skies. [Music]
2:21
We've taken the drone off. Got security doing a little bit of a patrol. We're just waiting for some satellites to
2:27
connect so we can take off and go a bit higher.
2:33
So, here we go. Right, satellites are connected.
2:40
Lie up and have a look over the top of the building. We have got a delivery coming in in the
2:46
white van with the soles on top. Could be a refrigerated van, shipping container,
2:52
the hotel signage is on the tower. Not really a lot going on. I think we've
3:00
got the health club in the middle with the two glass topped hexagonal
3:06
buildings with the Cedar Cort logo on.
3:13
So, we'll carry on going over to the car park.
3:20
There's quite a few cars, so they might be health club members
3:26
as well as the staff. We've got security at the main gates
3:32
with his vehicle. We also have got a member of the public walking their dog through the car park.
3:42
It just cuts straight across the grass. So, you can walk on there if you don't
3:47
have a body camera on unless they have something to do with
3:53
the hotel. We've got a bike rack at the bottom of the screen to the left.
3:59
I think there's about 30 bikes in there. Got the stair set where Excite was pushed down. Take a little picture of
4:05
the hotel. There we go.
4:12
So, I'll keep that on for a little while where we can see the bike back, the
4:17
stairs, all the solars, the nice glass topped buildings. Does
4:23
look pretty decent from the outside. nice and modern, but we're not really here to look at the
4:29
pictures of the hotel. So, we'll carry on the footage.
4:37
Right. So, we'll come back around. [Music]
4:45
Come back around. Have a look at the Cedar Court logo on top of the
4:51
health club. As I said, I think it is I've got a lot of solar panels on there
4:57
which could offset the some of the money that the taxpayer is spending on the electricity for these places.
5:05
So there's the cedar court signage. Got to zoom in on that now.
5:12
There we go. Right. So we'll carry on round.
5:20
I've got a football pitch for the residents to play on
5:26
this. Publicly accessible turning area there which is on the public road. We've
5:32
got a member of the staff, one of the chefs I think on the back of the bins where they had the big boy burgers which
5:41
was exposed. If you've not seen them videos, the links to it will be in the description.
5:48
So, I'll come back across and have a look. See what's going on. We got security there.
5:54
Just coming back to land the drone.
6:00
So, I'm just there on the right hand side to have a visual line of sight of the drone at all times.
6:08
I think he just clocked the drone. Then we'll drop the drone down a little bit lower.
6:15
We are still about 25 30 m at this point.
6:22
Pulled his phone out. Right. Picture of the drone taken.
6:28
Couldn't see an SI badge on him where from where I was stood already on the
6:34
drone camera, but I was more looking at the drone than I was the screen.
6:40
So, drop down a little bit lower. this area where the security is now. There was another two or three members
6:47
of the public walking a dog again. There he is. He's got he has got his SIA
6:52
license on and he's taking more pictures for a lawful drone flight. I'm not even
6:58
stepped foot on their property. Just as we're landing the drone, we ended up with the one security guard
7:05
who taking pictures of the drone just off the public footpath outside the ground. They can take photos. that I
7:11
come from a public area. I have got three of them and there was four
7:20
earlier on just putting the drone away.
7:26
So, we'll stay off their ground. We might come on if it's accessible.
7:34
But from the start again, they are adding like very shady parties.
7:41
So, we'll carry on down the foot path around and see if there's anywhere to go
7:47
in.
7:52
And if they come to question us, I will ask them why they're taking pictures of my drone on a lawful drone flight.
8:03
So, I did all my due diligence on drone assist
8:09
with XI audits being assaulted. I will put a clip of that in now.
8:17
I want to use the gym. Please stop you. Please, my friend. You're not going any push me down the
8:22
[ __ ] stairs. Brother, get out. You just pushed me down the stairs. Do not [ __ ] touch me. You would just
8:28
push me down the stairs. I'll also put a link to the video ay
8:33
audits did and
8:38
the video which freethinker and active patriot
8:44
put out as well so you can watch them if you need to.
8:53
[Music] So, I've got some gates around the back
8:58
all locked up.
9:06
I've got a football pitch. Yeah, good. You good?
9:11
Good. Is there any way I can get a copy of
9:16
that? Uh, like I've not even been on your land and you're taking pictures, the member of the public doing lawful activities.
9:26
So, what's the issue with me walking around the outside?
9:35
There we go. I've not even been on hotel property one bit. And this
9:40
gentleman taking pictures of the members of the
9:45
public.
10:05
Keep the cam on him for longer. There we go.
10:21
We have the other gentleman,
10:28
the one who was taking picture of the drone,
10:34
hiding behind the trees.
10:40
So it's on a public bit of road and then these hotel
10:45
security stormtroopers take pictures of you.
10:52
I got another one here as well.
11:00
He's gone shy as well now.
11:09
There we go. They did all look like they had SI licenses on display,
11:16
but whether or not they are real or they are fake.
11:21
So, we'll head around the other side. We'll head back where we
11:26
came from, down the public footpath.
11:31
[Music]
11:40
Just on the pillars outside of the hotel on the public footpath
11:46
the boats a sticker. I think I saw a post of Yorkshire Rose
11:52
on one of her social medias saying there is protests here every Saturday now at
12:00
2:00 p.m. The only reason I have come to a
12:07
location is I was in the area and I was passing by. So I thought I'd come and just have a
12:13
chat and have a look around.
12:22
As I said, this is the one of the hotels that I wasn't really fussed about coming to visit
12:28
because a lot of people have been. But after seeing that clip of Exite Audits
12:34
getting assaulted, I was in the area. So, I thought I'd pop down. [Music]
12:42
So, we'll head around to the main gate. [Music]
12:51
[Music]
12:57
[Music]
13:06
I might walk back through the way now so they can't see me.
13:26
[Music] Pull the camera out. We're just filming
13:32
again from public property. They do that to everybody that walks past.
13:45
[Music] There's a picture of the top of the
13:51
hotel. See the cart just up there.
14:11
Can I help you? You all right? Yeah. Can I help you?
14:17
Yeah, that's fine. Can I ask why one of your members of staff is taking photos of me for standing on public property?
14:22
Taking photo of me? Oh, yeah. I'm in public. You work for an organization.
14:28
Why you taking his pictures? He was taking mine, so I took one back. And you work for an organization?
14:34
Yeah. You take a picture, that's why. Okay. But say I I can request a copy of that by law. So who do I speak to to get
14:42
a copy of that image? You take a picture of everybody walking by with a phone in the hand and things
14:48
like that. No. [Music]
14:58
[Laughter]
15:05
[Laughter] Right. So, if you walk past outside,
15:11
they do take photos and they won't disclose who they are working for.
15:17
This area here is publicly accessible. So, it runs to another couple of
15:23
businesses. We've got another gentleman taking
15:28
photos. [Music]
15:49
There's your logic club exit, your gate with the
15:55
security on. I've got more signs as well.
16:00
for the luxury club. We have got four
16:11
just stood about. So I've walked past outside with a camera.
16:20
[Music]
16:29
The car park is buried off. The car park is buried off now with a
16:35
load of cones. If someone's coming to use the ledger club, do you move the cone so they can pull in?
16:46
Is that not okay to ask? Is that why do we get silence for just asking a legitimate question?
17:02
Do you have the [Music]
17:10
[Music]
17:27
I'm just going to pause the video there for a little while. So, when they all started talking in
17:35
their native tongue, I just wondered what sort of things they were saying. So, I clipped this bit of
17:45
audio, ran it through. some software to remove all the background noise and then ran it
17:52
through a translator and when it went through the translator it was
17:59
showing up as either Erdo or Hindi.
18:05
So I ran it through the translation in both languages
18:11
and this is the audio I got. I will play the clip and I will play the audio
18:22
of what the [Music]
18:35
[Music]
18:48
Why have these people come here? Nobody tells us anything. We are worried. This
18:54
is not right. Hello. Can you hear me properly? I was saying that matter we discussed
19:00
yesterday. We'll need to check again. Don't worry, everything will be fine.
19:05
Just give me some time. I'll explain it clearly so there is no confusion.
19:12
So yeah, that was both translations of what they were saying in both Erdo
19:19
and Hindi as I said, which it showed up as showing both of them in the
19:26
translation app. So I did them individually and that's what we've got. So, we'll carry on with the video now.
19:43
[Music]
19:52
Heat. [Music]
20:06
Heat. [Music]
20:14
Heat. Heat.
20:26
Heat.
20:33
[Applause]
20:48
Heat. [Music]
21:05
Heat. Heat.
21:28
[Music] Good morning or afternoon now. I'm not
21:34
100% sure. Good afternoon. It's 1:00 p.m. or 10.
21:40
We just came to have a look at the Cedar Court Hotel in Wakefield due to the assault of
21:48
Excite Audit the other day. A clip of that will be in the full video when it's
21:54
published. But I just thought I would fly my drone over and have a look, see what it looks
22:01
like with a lawful drone flight. So I took her and landed on public property and has had a walk around on public
22:07
footpaths and then one of the security guards starts taking pictures of members of the
22:13
public on public land. And then we had four of them patrolling
22:20
around following from public for me walking on public land not even
22:26
stepping foot on the property. So the car park for Cedar C now
22:34
where it has actually access to the leisure club evergreens office car
22:40
park is now barriered off
22:46
with all the cones. So do you move the cones and if people come to the leisure club
22:53
what if someone comes to the leisure club do you shift the cones and let them in?
22:59
Okay. What was it was a new member coming to pick a membership card up? So, absolutely not. It's closed. So,
23:05
so the membership is closed since when has it been closed? Sorry. No comments. Uh only the members
23:12
they are allowed. So, okay. What about new members? I don't know. So, you don't know about new members?
23:18
So, I wanted to go sign up. Not allowed. Call them, contact them on the website.
23:25
They will respond you. Yep. And then if I've done that and I come in to visit, how do I gain access?
23:34
If you got it with them, yeah, then you let us know. We will call them.
23:39
And if uh they clear you, you can come. So if they say, "Oh yeah, this person's
23:44
allowed." So you ask people for ID when they come in. Okay. So what how what
23:51
gives you the right to check people's IDs if they are here for a legitimate purpose? That's it. Pardon? No, my dear. That's it. I
23:57
already already given you the information which I know. Okay. Okay. Yeah. No, that's fine. Like how many how
24:02
many residents have you got?
24:08
No comments. No comments. What about the uh kitchen that was
24:15
Can you comment? Yeah. All the gentleman that was assaulted and pushed down the stairs the other day. Do you have no comments on
24:20
that either? I do. Can you comment that, please? No comments.
24:25
[Music] Okay, that's fine. Um, Joey, other
24:31
gentleman who's like took the photo with me when I was on the public footpath. Do you want to remind him that it's not
24:36
illegal to take photos from a public place? And how do I request a copy of that
24:42
image? Is it Cir or Mia I need to speak to? So, I know Mia runs this facility now.
24:50
You can do whatever you like. Yeah. Can I can I get his name then so I can put it in the report on the
24:57
subject access request? No. No. What about yourself?
25:02
I don't have these information, my friend. Well, if you're working for them, I think you will do.
25:08
So, they're not give you any information. Just give you a high visa badge and just say, "Right, you go. You go sit here. Don't let anybody in."
25:15
So, you do have the information. You don't want to divulge the information. Welcome to one.
25:22
What about yourself? You have this information. No comments. No comments of you either.
25:29
How come? Easy enough questions to answer. Yeah.
25:35
Do you know when this is going to be open to the public again? Is anybody want going to Is anybody
25:42
going to want to stay here after they sold out to government contracts? I don't know. Over the British public?
25:48
I don't know. You don't know? How come?
25:58
Who will be the less prime minister? Nigel Farage probably the way things are
26:04
going. Right, I'm going to go for a walk around the public footpath.
26:13
I know. I will. That's fine. As long as I don't get hassled on public property, I'll be happy.
26:20
Do you think it's a little bit of an overreach taking photos of public on public land when they've not even
26:25
stepped foot on? Or do you take pictures of everybody that walks past, women, children?
26:31
No comments, sir. No comments. What about yourself on that one?
26:40
You can laugh all you want. It's like I'm just asking the question.
26:47
So, is it everybody you take photos of, women, children, as well as men walking past stood on
26:53
public land? Yes. No. Maybe.
27:03
[Music] All right. Well, we'll go for a wonder
27:08
around the edge of the perimeter again.
27:14
Ask him a few questions. No comment or they were not privy to that information about who they are
27:20
working for. So these two
27:29
sat up there and we'll see if any of them do follow me around.
27:39
Super Slav. Well, [Music] depends how bad it smells, doesn't it? Really. Great comment.
27:47
[Music] Sitting there on the job. Yeah.
27:57
[Music]
28:14
We'll go back to where we were. See this guy here now is following me back around.
28:20
[Music] Nice helmet that man.
28:28
There's a big Union Jack on the helmet of his bike.
28:34
So we go see not even on the premises like Exite audits who went on to ask
28:41
about the health club.
28:50
All right, we'll walk back and see if he can follow me back this way again.
29:06
Yep. Stood there waiting for me. We will carry on and see if he follows
29:13
again.
29:20
[Music]
29:26
Let's see if it stop walking again.
29:40
Yeah, he's still there. [Music]
29:46
All right, so we'll carry on a bit further. If he gets closer, I got to ask him why he's following me around.
29:57
Keep going. Right. He can't see me now cuz I'm behind the hill. I'll play hide and seek
30:03
with him. Go back this way.
30:09
[Music]
30:18
All right. So, we are still on the outside of not going into their land.
30:24
But hey, I think I think I think I've gone right down that way.
30:30
Hide and seek security. [Music]
30:36
We'll carry on going to where we was going to go anywhere.
30:50
Ah, there he is. He lost me. [Music]
31:00
So, they have got the big tower in the middle, [Music]
31:06
the hotel on.
31:14
And then we have got took a picture on the drone of it. See a car on top of
31:20
that building there. [Music]
31:26
I'm not wasting my voice shouting over to him.
31:32
[Music]
31:39
Oh, we got another one here just sneaking in out the fence.
31:48
[Music]
32:04
There we go. It's just creeping about.
32:09
There's the other guy. was that.
32:18
[Music] So yeah, they didn't want to answer any questions.
32:25
[Music] Like I think it was a bit of a overreach by security
32:31
and we stood outside on a public footpath where we'll go now. They start
32:37
taking pictures of members of the public. So I asked them if they would take pictures of women and children as well,
32:44
they was doing the same thing. No comment.
32:49
So if you walk past and you stand in a public area,
32:54
it's like they're entitled to take your photo and they won't give you any details
33:00
of how to request images. [Music]
33:16
So there's the gentleman there on the back that is takes pictures of members
33:21
of the public down this public footpath which comes down
33:29
and up here. I'll go to where I was stood.
33:44
This is where I flew the drone from. Public footpath.
33:49
And we have got the other two still following round.
33:58
After I landed the drone, we walked up here
34:08
and we have a public barrier where someone has put a sticker on saying stop the boat.
34:23
my opinion. If someone comes over, they have a passport so you can identify
34:29
them. Fair enough. Go down the proper channels.
34:35
If anything else, I think the government should just detain and deport.
34:42
So, it's getting ridiculous now with the amount of taxpayer cash
34:47
being spent on these places. And the other day, one of the latest videos on
34:53
my channel is I found a care home which we got tipped off about by a viewer. And
35:00
that is a mixed asylum accommodation in there. So this is where I've all stood.
35:06
It's open publicly accessible area.
35:12
And then the gentleman started taking photos.
35:20
There's a nice little football pitch they've got. Excite was playing a little bit of football.
35:28
We got a pair of flip- flops or thongs if you're Australian.
35:35
But yeah, the short gentleman there is one who
35:41
takes members of the public studing publicly
35:47
accessible areas. Right. So, we're going to end that one there
35:55
and catch you in the next video.
36:00
Thanks for watching. Right.
36:09
[Music] So, I've just ended the live video there
36:17
when the guys are speaking at the main entrance. I'll try and run that through a translator.
36:26
Try and get some pictures as well. Get them on the video.
36:32
[Music]
36:39
I said they have all got SIA licenses on, but are they real or they fake ones
36:47
or they had somebody else do the exam for them and just pass them their
36:54
badges and put a new picture on. Right. So, we're going to end that there. We
36:59
did grill the security guard a little bit.
37:06
So, no comments about anything. So, we'll see you in the next one.
37:16
The warning.
