Protest at the Port of Dover

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.

  • Theres no reason for him to be a martyr, he's only been arrested not condemned to death! But then I've noticed all these right wing political types have very thin skins and all about being victimised, I wonder what would happen if they were put into a real combat situation where the other side are equally well armed and shot back? I think they'd run a mile and complain that the enemy wasn't being "fair".
