Thousands descended on Dover to ‘stop the boats’ as activists declare ‘Enough is Enough’ over the government-sponsored migrant crisis.

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.

Attending the protest on Sunday, Reform’s Dover and Deal chairman told GB News that illegal migration in the UK was ‘way beyond’ a point of return.

‘There’s a point with illegal migration in the country where we say enough is enough, and we are way beyond that,’ Paul King told GB News. ‘This is what today is about.’

Organising the protest online, the Kent Motor Heads Events wrote: ‘Nothing is and never will be done by Westminster to stop the mass invasion of our tiny island.

‘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.’

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.

Attendees were encouraged to ‘ignore’ anyone who attempted to ‘wind them up’ as Soros paid pro-immigration groups are expected to launch a counter-protest.

King 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’m not enforcing my views on anyone, but I know a number of our [party] members are coming because they feel so passionate about it.’

The event’s organisers have also emphasised that it would be a peaceful protest of ‘like-minded normal folk who have had enough’.

King told GB News that he had noted an increased police presence as he arrived ahead of the event this afternoon. Local officers have been alerted to increased tensions in the area as demonstrators from both sides of the debate assembled.

A spokesperson for Kent Police said of this weekend’s protests: ‘Kent Police has been made aware of a planned protest and counter-demonstration in Dover on Sunday, April 27.

‘The force is in contact with the organisers of both and will have sufficient resources in place to keep any disruption to a minimum.’ TELL US WHAT YOU THINK
