Around 350 demonstrators turned out anyway.
Residents of Gosport, the Royal Navy harbor town across the water from Portsmouth, spent Sunday under police orders that let officers direct people to leave town, as a migrant boat from France made its way toward their coastline.
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary imposed a Section 34 dispersal order covering the entire town under the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014, running until 7am Tuesday. It lets officers order people to leave an area and not return, and refusing is a criminal offense. Police stacked several more restrictions on top:
The boat left Normandy, near Utah Beach, on Sunday morning. Late Sunday evening, two RNLI lifeboats brought 149 people ashore in Gosport, who were then put on coaches to Kent for processing, health, security and biometric checks. It was the third crossing headed for the western Channel coast in a month, a route that had been rare in recent years.
Two weeks ago, a boat carrying around 50 migrants was rerouted to Dover after locals protested.
On Sunday, around 350 demonstrators turned out anyway, according to the Portsmouth News, with reports of flares and scuffles with police. By Monday, 12 people had been arrested, for offenses including assaulting a police officer. Six people were arrested at a similar protest last month.
Footage posted overnight shows the lifeboats coming in after dark, and the police escort that then moved the coaches out of town.
Tensions on this stretch of coast have been building for weeks. On Sept. 22, Hayling Island native Daniel Thomas, an anti-migrant activist known online as “Danny Tommo” whom Breitbart describes as a Tommy Robinson ally, allegedly slashed a migrant boat in the Channel with an emergency responder on board. The 37-year-old has pleaded not guilty to criminal damage and to refusing to give police his phone PIN, and a judge at Portsmouth Crown Court denied him bail on Sept. 29. His trial is provisionally set for March 2027.
The local Conservative MP, Caroline Dinenage, wants the boats sent elsewhere. “Gosport is not a safe or suitable location to disembark small boats,” she said, arguing that any small boat intercepted in the Channel should be taken directly to Dover by water, as the Home Office did two weeks ago.
George Madgwick, who leads Reform UK on Hampshire County Council, put it more bluntly: “It’s heart-breaking because Portsmouth Harbour is the home of the Royal Navy… Britain is Broken.”
Then there is the bill. Hampshire’s Police and Crime Commissioner, Donna Jones, says every one of these landings now comes with a price tag for local taxpayers:
“On each one of the protests that are happening every time we have one of these threats of a small boat landing, it is costing me £150,000 of taxpayers’ money from my police budget, which I can ill afford to spend.”
In a video message, Jones called on the Home Secretary to make sure Border Force has vessels big enough to transfer people off the dinghies at sea and take them to Dover for processing.
On Monday, a government spokesperson said: “We have established contingency plans to make sure we can securely disembark, check and process all small boat arrivals.”

Look at who comprises the British government. Muzztards.
Incoming boats given a pass. Welcome to Britinistan. May be soon rejoining greater Europistan.
The West commits suicide in real time...
This is an genuine nightmare coming true right before our very eyes. The British Government has literally turned on its people. It was incredibly sad hearing the men yell at them impotently. Had they weapons, this would not have happened. It’s civil war, and only one side has arms. Same in France. Both nations are gone, gone, gone.
If England had a Second Amendment, and if the residents had guns, I would fully expect the locals to show up and ... ummm ... let the both the migrants and the local law enforcement know how the locals felt about this.
Summary of the Paul Joseph Watson video (YouTube: 9Fv-1kiOcUI)
The video criticizes UK authorities’ handling of small-boat migrants, focusing on events in Gosport (Hampshire). Authorities imposed a Section 34 dispersal order across the town, empowering police to order people to leave and not return. Residents reportedly faced roadblocks and ID checks simply to reach their own homes, which the narrator frames as a “migrant lockdown” that prioritizes processing arrivals over local residents.
Footage and commentary show heavy police presence escorting coaches of young male migrants, with roadblocks and checkpoints. Locals confront officers, questioning the priorities and raising concerns about crime and safety (including references to sexual violence). The narrator cites media reports claiming nearly all women traveling on the boats have been assaulted by the time they reach northern France, and argues criminal gangs control the selection of who crosses.
It contrasts this with under-resourced ordinary policing: low solve rates in Hampshire for rape (7%), residential burglaries (9%), and violent crime (12%). Convoys of ambulances and large police deployments are shown facilitating migrant arrivals while the public is told services are stretched. Signal blockers are mentioned in Dover to hinder live-streaming of landings. The central claim is that the state is highly capable but deliberately directs its resources toward enabling illegal migration rather than stopping it, amounting to a planned demographic change.
A mid-video sponsored segment promotes Black Forest’s Turkesterone + Tongkat Ali supplement. It cites studies on declining testosterone (down ~17% in one generation) and sperm counts (down over 30% in 50 years) in Western men, positions the product as a natural alternative to TRT, and advertises a limited 50% off Columbus Day deal via a specific link.
The video closes by urging viewers to support the channel via pauljosephwatson.locals.com and to visit modernity.news for additional content.
“We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender.”
UNLESS THEYRE ILLEGAL ALIENS. Then we’ll clear out any Celts or Saxons in their way, welcome them ashore and put them up in luxury hotels.
The word is out - the PM is looking for 500,000,000 more “immigrants”. The wave will break on England’s shore, washing away centuries of history.

I wonder if the British people have figured out Labour is racing to get enough replacement voters in to keep them in power.
That’s nothing compared to the 100 MILLION the Dems will welcome in with open arms once they get power
Chain of Fools!
The police need to be targeted by the citizens. But the Brits have been pacified.
Dear Brits...you need to rediscover your medieval roots! It is either that or “Bye-Bye!”.
It would take a legion of Tommy Robinsons, who would be kept distracted by police searching for reasons to throw these brave people in jail and out of sight.
Unless you are Antifa, "Palestinian" or other Islamofacist.
“But the Brits have been pacified.”
How about civilized, which has the side effect of weakness?
