This was after management at the restaurant chain colluded with the UK border authority to lure migrant workers into a trap, resulting the the deportation of the workers. At the protest, Steve Eason filmed hospitality workers and campaigners speaking out against immigration raids at Byron Burgers and the anti-migrant worker government.
