  1. British vigilantes who spearheaded efforts to fly England flags across the country have launched a new anti-migrant protest – attempting to [block illegal Channel crossings](https://inews.co.uk/news/politics/deport-young-men-children-farage-mahmood-4049300?ico=in-line_link).

    Using the term “Operation Stop The Boats”, members of the group have been filming themselves slashing small boats before they are used by migrants to cross the English Channel from France.

    Posts on social media show members calling for other British men to join them in France, including making a direct appeal to football hooligans, saying “we need to make a stand”.

    In one video message shared this week by a member of the Raise the Colours group – the grassroots movement that has seen [flags fixed to](https://inews.co.uk/news/flag-wars-fuelling-union-jack-st-georges-cross-3885185?srsltid=AfmBOorkpeXgrf3A9I_3aHLO07dLQ7XbuUd4bbXTatgvtE64MHkPXhzQ&ico=in-line_link) lampposts, motorway bridges and roundabouts across England – two men are seen evoking military language and the spirit of the British fight against the Nazis in World War Two.

    Claiming to be recording from the northern French coast, one said: “Just like in the 1940s, we must take a stand, and it starts with the men of England and Britain.”

    Making an appeal to “firms” – a phrase that refers to football hooligan groups – the other man added: “Our country is doing nothing. Weak government, weaker borders.

    “They are doing nothing so we need to make a stand boys. Get the lads together, get your firms together, get the lads in the pub, get the lads down the bars, if you’re talking about it and you agree with what we are doing, give us a hand.”

  2. Smashing the gangs harder than 12+ months of Starmer.

  3. The only problem about this is that these guys will probably end up being jailed for doing this…

  5. “Just like the 1940s”.

    Bunch of absolute wetwipes not fit to lace the shoes of the real heroes from the 40s.

  6. Good.

    If the French government won’t do the job, then at least someone will.

  10. I’m waiting for some far left saying this goes against their human rights or something….

    [I hate Farage]

  11. I find it somewhat humourous how much hate Starmer and the french get for migrants yet nobody seems to have a problem with the party that basically signed them up to come here and do nothing to remove them..it’s like they don’t exist and everyone expects the new party within 12 months to right the wrongs of the last 14 years

  12. Cant imagine one would have time for this nonsense while holding down a job and supporting a family.

  14. As long as they are just destroying the boats I don’t see a problem with people doing this.Its clear that they aren’t using them for a day trip so the police should be taking them anyway.

  15. I knew we’d start to see the rise of vigilantes. The shit governments and police don’t look after us. Someone has to.
