‘It's a sin': UK citizens struggle in housing crisis as migrants enjoy four-star hotels
Strelmark President and founder Hilary Fordwich discusses the rise in protests occurring outside of migrant hotels across the UK. 'It's a sin that the British taxpayer is paying for this,' Ms Fordwich told Sky News Digital Presenter Gabriella Power. 'I'll tell you what is even worse is now the government has seen all the protests outside these migrant hotels … what they're doing is they are offering landlords five-year contracts, more money than they'd ever make and paying for all repairs and improvements to their property. 'Meanwhile, the British taxpayer, the British citizen can't find accommodation, there's a housing shortage … that is despicable.'

Australians are more afraid of Trump's tariffs than Chinese military threat
Strelmark President and Founder Hilary Fordwich discusses recent reports in Australia which show people are more afraid of US President Donald Trump's tariffs than they are of the Chinese military threat. 'It's probably the same in Australia as it is in the US, that it depends on what people are watching,' Ms Fordwich told Sky News Digital Presenter Gabriella Power. 'Probably there are a lot of Australians who are just watching your mainstream media … but they are getting a perspective, and they are being fed information which is everything negative about Trump. 'You could do with a prime minister who is doing as much for Australia and puts Australia first as we have in President Trump.'

Trump's tariffs will have a ‘beneficial' global impact
Strelmark President and founder Hilary Fordwich weighs in on US President Donald Trump's tariffs, asserting they will have a 'beneficial' global impact. 'It's fascinating to me, I don't know who made all the former trade deals the US had historically because they totally and utterly hollowed out American manufacturing and American jobs,' Ms Fordwich told Sky News Digital Presenter Gabriella Power. 'What he's talking about is fair and reciprocal across the world, and I do think it's going to rebalance global trade. 'I don't think this is to the detriment of other nations; other nations need America more than the US needs them, and I think this is going to end up actually being beneficial across the globe, not just for the US.'

Strelmark President Hilary Fordwich says US President Donald Trump has 'brought the Chinese to the table'.

'He's brought the Chinese to the table. 'They've re-agreed to stop the fentanyl manufacturing, cause a part of this is a drug deal.'
