Masked protesters hold 'anti-illegal migrant' demo in UK
A "co-ordinated" protest in the UK that appears to be "illegal migration-related" has seen hundreds of black-clad, masked demonstrators block roads in Dover, a local councillor said.
In the UK, a coordinated protest has taken place in Dover, an area known for its busy international ferry and passenger port. Hundreds of masked protesters, dressed in black with balaclavas, have blocked roads in the town, causing significant disruptions. Councillor Chris Vinson, leader of the Conservative group, stated that the protest appears to be related to illegal migration.
Police were not aware of the situation, making it difficult to warn the public and ensure their safety. The port is experiencing delays, with some sailings operating with a delay and others cancelled. The protests are causing traffic congestion, with delays of up to 45 minutes on local roads. Local councillors, activists, and politicians have criticized the masked men for causing public disturbance, while others have suggested that the protests are part of a coordinated plan to "stop the boats."
