Ten British "far-right activists" have been banned from France after engaging in actions to stop migrants crossing the English Channel in small boats, the French interior ministry said on Wednesday.
It said the activists, who belonged to a group called Raise the Colours, had been searching for and destroying small boats along France's northern coast, and were involved in "propaganda activity".
Authorities have not released their identities.
In a statement, Raise the Colours said it had always maintained that its activities must remain peaceful and within the law and it "does not support violence or any unlawful activity".
The ministry said it became aware of the group's actions in December 2025 which were likely to cause "serious disturbances to public order".

I’m still yet to hear anybody described as a far left activist
Western Europe has one primary goal in 2026—destroy white people and their culture and civilization.
They are not even trying to hide it anymore.
I wonder which European country we’ll have to attack first...following our total ejection of all Islamists.
France-istan, Germistan or Britainistan?
Should have been thanking them instead of banning them ... ineffective French Government is diddling around and doing nothing but accepting cash from the ignorant UK.
It is interesting that stopping the illegal alien boats is considered one of the ‘serious disturbances to public order.’
They are not even trying to hide it anymore.
Seems like that the Trump Administration agrees with your assessment.
Might be more than 3.
Imagine it was 1940 and the “migrants” spoke German and had rather hard looks on their faces as they paddled towards Britain.
What would the French say then?
It’s really no different.
I think that France is happy every time migrants flee from France to any other country. The French Government probably doesn’t like people obstructing the flow of migrants out from France... that’s why those 10 obstructors were banned.
US Example:
Texas was happy to help migrants flowing to Martha’s Vineyard for a while...
However, from a British point of view I can fully understand the disappointment that France acted as it did.
If we had known that this was going to happen, we would have never wasted all those lives at D-Day.
