French Police Fire Tear Gas in Clash with Migrants as Hundreds More Cross English Channel

 

Migrants were seen climbing into boats in order to make the Channel crossing

So far this morning, several small boats have already crossed into UK waters.

Just after 7am, the RNLI lifeboat from Ramsgate reached Dover harbour with the first group of illegal arrivals.

GB News counted 47 people as they were taken off the lifeboat and sent to the Border Force migrant processing facility in the harbour.

Just over half an hour later, the Border Force vessel Defender docked at Dover.

 

Members of the gendarmerie fired tear gas and clashed with a large group of migrants

Hundreds more are reported to be nearing UK waters.

The latest arrivals follow 28 days of no small boat activity because of poor weather conditions.

The winds died down last Saturday, allowing people smugglers push more than 700 migrants out into small boats.

On Wednesday, a further 500 made the voyage from France.

This morning’s clashes between police and migrants show that French authorities are attempting some interventions, but the vast majority of small boat launches are still going largely unchallenged.

A Home Office spokesperson said: “The number of small boat crossings are shameful and the British people deserve better.

“This Government is taking action. We have removed almost 50,000 people who were here illegally, and our historic deal with the French means those who arrive on small boats are now being sent back.

“The Home Secretary has announced the most sweeping reforms to tackle illegal migration in decades, removing the incentives that bring illegal migrants to the UK and scaling up the return of those with no right to be here.”

Two-Tier Policing: Coddling the Left, Crushing the Rest?

Two-Tier Policing: Coddling the Left, Crushing the Rest?

Two-tier policing is clear as day in the UK today. Our police don’t seem to serve the British public but bend over backwards for left-wing groups like the Stand Up to Racism crowd. They handle their protests, crimes, and riots with kid gloves. Before Southport, Leeds Police bolted from an angry lefty mob, letting rioters run wild, while peaceful British demonstrators got the heavy hand—riot gear, batons, shields, even nicking pensioners out with their dogs in Westminster. At the peak of the summer riots, cops came down hard on British patriots, yet let left-wing gangs stir up violence in pubs without arrests. Daily stabbings still happen months after Southport, with suspects nabbed but not named—no racial profiling, while British patriots get slagged off in the media, arrested, and convicted just for being near a demo. Two-tier policing means a chant, tweet, or God bless you gets half a dozen coppers at your door, but lefty mobs or socialist councillors can scream death threats with no comeback. The police aren’t on our side, brushing it off with Nothing to see here when it’s plain as day. Two-tier policing, built to intimidate, coddles the left while crushing the rest—it’s the sad state of UK policing today.
