Hundreds of demonstrators dressed in black and wearing balaclavas blocked the streets around Dover earlier today, shouting 'stop the boats' in what the Port of Dover described as a 'public order incident'.
The protest seemed to take the police by surprise and intimidated residents.
The demonstrators were eventually escorted to the railway station. It appears an anti-immigration group with links to the far right have claimed responsibility for the demonstration.
Thousands gathering at Glasgow Green to oppose the fascist Unite The Clans protest, after weeks where the far right have been attempting to spread racist hate and violence across our city. Glasgow is ANTI FASCIST!
In a wide-ranging interview for The Independent with editor in chief Geordie Greig, the former PM warned that the UK is losing £100bn a year in trade and £40bn in tax receipts because of Brexit.

The British Home Office conducted research on child sexual abuse and found that only 3.7% of more than 115,489 men involved were of Pakistani heritage, with most being White. The narrative about Pakistani grooming gangs was pushed by some prominent figures to fuel hatred against Pakistanis in the UK. This created an environment of hostility towards the Pakistani community, which in turn led to attacks on Pakistanis by White populists associated with Tommy Robinson.

You see these scenes from Belfast?
That's our future if Reform, Restore, the Tories, GB News, Elon Musk and the right-wing media get their way.
Except this will be on a much bigger scale.
We have to decide: do we want those inciting hatred to destroy our country?
I see multiple prominent UK political journalists quote-tweeting this Green mayor and snarkily saying he should be focused on bin collection as if UK mayors and councils of all parties and none haven't twinned their towns with 100s of towns and cities across the world - including in Israel. As if it isn't normal practise.
But hey, it's the Greens and it's the Palestinians, so the UK media establishment looks for any ridiculous excuse for a pile-on.
You don't hate parts of our mainstream media enough.

Another unbelievable audacity of an Indian Traveller in London 😡🤷♀️
World will hate us Indians with such an attitude of Racism and conduct.
From Euston to Manchester, on the train an Indian woman was recorded telling a British-born Arab Muslim man to “go back to his country.”
He rightly pointed out he’s British-born and pays taxes .
Whatever the provocation, telling someone to leave the country based on ethnicity or appearance is wrong — especially in the UK, which has welcomed millions from around the world, including Indians.
Racism cuts both ways. Hypocrisy too. Let’s judge people by their actions, not their origins.

Difficult to describe how mainstreamed Islamophobia is in the UK now, and how far to the right the Tory Party has moved, that the party leader Kemi Badenoch can go on live national TV and defend Tommy Robinson and just erase his British Muslim targets and their fears and safety.
Kemi Badenoch, the Tory leader, actually went on the BBC and questioned whether Tommy Robinson (Tommy Robinson!) is “creating a climate of intimidation and violence” with his rally. Astonishing. She’s a disgrace. The safety or ‘feelings’ of UK Muslims don’t count for her.
Kanye West banned from the U.K. for extreme antisemitism.
So the same course of action should be taken against the @TRobinsonNewEra fangirl and extreme Islamophobe, @ValentinaForUSA, yeah.
