Protest at the Port of Dover

TheCatWoman

Has anyone else seen this? An unknown number but reconned to be in the hundreds of black clad and masked men turned up at the Port of Dover today and blocked every entrance and exit to it. causing huge delays for travellers and a 4 mile lorry tailblack. The police apparently know nothing about it, no one seems to know who they were or what group they were representing or who organised it. The police just walked alongside the protesters, who were seemingly peaceful until they dispearsed some time later. It seems they were protesting about boat corssings of immigrants, but I'm not sure if anyone really knows?

Should we be worried about this, a lot of people were really scared, especially lone women?

I've been active in poitical protests on and off for years, I've never seen anything like this before, usually when protesting you want everyone to know who you are and why you're there, not disguise youself behind masks and carry nothing to say who you're representing.

  • This is organised Fascism, we're seeing the rise of Fascism in the UK and much like in the Weimar republic the political centre is more terrified of groups to it's left than the groups to it's right and will only selectively enforce it's own laws to suppress the Left but appease the right.

    I think governments have been terrified of "communists" for so long that they forget the right are as much or even more of a danger.

    I read earlier that RNLI members have been identified and where they live is known to these thugs, I hope if an RNLI mmber is attacked then the perpetrators are prosecuted in the same way and under the same laws that attacks on other emergency workers are.

    Its also come out that the police were warned that something as going on, when a village was swamped with cars many illegally parked, one resident even called the anti terror hot line, an MP has photo's of the number plates of many of the cars. It's said that they all piled into the back of luton vans and drove to Dover, I thought it was illegal to travel in a van like that?

    These people say they're Christian Patriots, I wonder if various churches across the country have seen a rise in congregations? Sounds to me like they're wannabe templars, I wonder how they'd cope with the serious monstatic discipline the Templars lived under?
