Thousands have descended on Dover to “stop the boats” as activists declare “enough’s enough” over the migrant crisis. <\/p>\n

The event, called “Stop the boats now! 10,000+ bikers and friends illegal migrant protest ride to Dover” on Facebook, encouraged other activists to play their part as hundreds arrive in the coastal town.<\/p>\n

Attending the protest on Sunday, Reform’s Dover & Deal chairman told GB News that illegal migration in the UK was “way beyond” a point of return. <\/p>\n

“There’s a point with illegal migration in the country where we say enough’s enough, and we are way beyond that,” Paul King told GB News. “This is what today is about.”<\/p>\n

Brandishing Union Jacks, groups marching through the town could be heard chanting “no one likes a leftie”. <\/p>\n

Organising the protest online, the Kent Motor Heads Events wrote: “Nothing is and never will be done to stop the mass invasion of our tiny island. <\/p>\n

“As bikers, we are known to do what we say we are going to do and will line the roads and the whole area of Dover in a mass protest to show how p****d off everyone is with this now.”<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not racist. It\u2019s not right-wing. So please don\u2019t try and make out it is.”<\/p>\n

The group added that they intended the event to be a “peaceful protest” and said that “there won’t be any trouble or anti-social behaviour” from demonstrators. <\/p>\n

Attendees were encouraged to “ignore” anyone who attempted to “wind them up” as pro-immigration groups are expected to launch a counter-protest.<\/p>\n

Echoing a similar sentiment, King told the People’s Channel said: “I’m aware that there is a pro migrant anti protest happening. And the last thing I want is any disturbance.”<\/p>\n

“There’s a great feeling of disenfranchisement of the general populace that they do the right thing, pay their taxes, and then don’t get anything. <\/p>\n

“Everything gets given to those who come in here illegally. It\u2019s illegal. And it\u2019s as simple as that.”<\/p>\n

He added: “I’m here as an individual, but I’m also here in my role as an apolitical person. It’s a non-political protest. I\u2019m not enforcing my views on anyone, but I know a number of our [party] members are coming because they feel so passionate about it.”<\/p>\n

The event’s organisers have also emphasised that it would be a peaceful protest of “like-minded normal folk who have had enough”.<\/p>\n

King told GB News that he had noted an increased police presence as he arrived ahead of the event this afternoon.<\/p>\n

Crowds have flocked to Dover just over a week since GB News exclusively revealed<\/a> that hundreds of illegal migrants reached Britain’s shores on Good Friday, sending a record week’s number of arrivals even higher.<\/p>\n

Just before 9pm, the Border Force vessel Ranger arrived in Dover with 113 migrants on board – in addition to the 138 who made the perilous journey across the Channel to the UK earlier in the day.<\/p>\n

As a result, it brought the total number of illegal crossings from France to 9,350 in the year so far.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Thousands have descended on Dover to “stop the boats” as activists declare “enough’s enough” over the migrant crisis.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":55414,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5018,3,4],"tags":[748,393,4884,495,5804,12,1144,285,2579,386,712,29367,16,1259,3106,15,1764],"class_list":{"0":"post-55413","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-britain","8":"category-uk","9":"category-united-kingdom","10":"tag-britain","11":"tag-england","12":"tag-great-britain","13":"tag-kent","14":"tag-migrant-crisis","15":"tag-news","16":"tag-northern-ireland","17":"tag-politics","18":"tag-protests","19":"tag-reform-uk","20":"tag-scotland","21":"tag-south-east","22":"tag-uk","23":"tag-uk-news","24":"tag-uk-politics","25":"tag-united-kingdom","26":"tag-wales"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114411343013854149","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55413","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=55413"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55413\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/55414"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=55413"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=55413"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=55413"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
