Six people were arrested after an anti-migrant protest at a marina in Hampshire, England. Hundreds of demonstrators gathered at Gosport on Tuesday evening after calls from far-right activist Daniel Thomas.
The protesters believed a small boat carrying asylum seekers would arrive at the marina. They aimed to stop anyone from getting off. However, the Border Force vessels carrying the migrants landed in Dover early on Wednesday instead.
Police made six arrests at the scene.
