Masked protesters block Port of Dover

Nothing wrong with standing up and peacefully protesting 'enough is enough' that is not what these protestors were doing.

They were peacefully protesting in Dover

Do you not accept that some police were injured- some police vehicles were damaged, that the protesters blocked the safe passage of the asylum seekers rescued at sea after a long channel crossing on a dinghy until 3am in the morning and that the protestors broke through a police cordon sundowngirl?

I have never mentioned Portsmouth just that the protest in Dover was peaceful. Violence is never acceptable and I have never said it was

All my posts today focus on refer to Portsmouth protesters- thats fine.

The two events are linked, watch Danny Thomas telling people to go to Portsmouth. I expect that facial recognition will link the same people to both events, and some of them are likely to be arrested.

Also those people on Palestinian marches were wearing face coverings, not burkas but those scarfs they wear.

Ahh yes Rosie51, Emma Thompson, another hypocrite, along with the likes of H & M 🙃

People are upset by illegal immigration, no one listens.

Exactly. This is the whole point. It’s not about masks or any kind of uniform. It’s because most people are extremely concerned about illegal migration and the government aren’t listening.

What evidence is there that the government is 'not listening' and not doing anything about legal migration and the arrival of asylum seekers?

Ah, that must be why they are achieving such a reduction in the numbers coming by small boat, and sending more people who have no right to be here out of the country then. They just aren’t listening - they should realise that parting the seas and creating a magical one way path back to France is the only way forward, and just get on with it…

& yet here we Grans are on News & Politics, all thanks to the Suffragette movement, who weren’t exactly peaceful!

Plenty of people, some on GN aren’t listening, I’ll give you that. Numbers are dropping for the asylum seekers in and increasing for those on their way and out, published statistics ignored by many.
Danny Thomas, aka Tommo, , is the manipulator behind and in front of the scenes, another one with a criminal record, leading the rent a mob in Portsmouth yesterday. They were not a silent protest, but brainwashed and almost feral, very sad and concerning.

Some posters seemingly don't want to listen or acknowledge what this government has achieved in relation to reacting to asylum seeker arrivals.

On the contrary, some posters accuse the government of not listening to public concerns despite the improved achievements as outlined- entirely wishing to ignore such factual data.

There's abundant evidence that the government are listening, but it's getting hard for the government or anyone else to take what they're hearing seriously when there are such a lot of lies about the situation & such a lot of silliness talked.

'All those young men, of fighting age, some with convictions of sexual assault, invading our shores'.
Claiming to be Patriots?

I don’t think some people on here understand what
‘Stop the boats’ actually means?
It means stop them completely. Or as near completely as possible.
It doesn’t mean a slight reduction on previous years figures.

Police were injured and used batons and pepper spray to control the thugs in Portsmouth.

Presumably while there were dealing with the Patriots rescources were being diverted from other areas....including "our own"

So, no longer just a valid peaceful protest?
Didn't last long, did it?

Even if they were totally peaceful and wore no masks they would be conveniently named far right. It just fits the agenda for the current government. That is one of the reasons many are unhappy. A shame because the alternative government wannabes have no experience and would quite likely be a disaster.
