200 Police Scotland officers sent to Portadown. For what? I’ve written to Justice Secretary Neil Gray because I am seriously concerned about the decision to send 200 Scottish police officers to Portadown to support the policing operation around the Orange Order march down the Garvaghy Road. 1/8

The balaclava blackshirted thugs are a result of a decade of politicians, tabloids and the broadcast media telling racists they have "legitimate concerns." The normalisation of actual fascism rhetoric and action has led to this and is a far greater "legitimate concern" than any migrant on a boat.

Sorry, the Home Office response to a bunch of fascists blockading a port is to wheedle about what they’re doing to try to make them happy?

A Home Office spokesperson said: "This government is bearing down on dangerous small boat crossings and restoring control at our border. Joint efforts have seen over 48,000 crossing attempts prevented and 1,100 boats and engines seized since the election.
"We are making progress, with the number of small boat crossings down this year and the lowest number recorded for the month of July since 2020.
"But we must go further, which is why we have signed a payment-by-results deal with the French to put 40% more boots on the ground on French beaches."
