英国内政部长沙巴娜·马哈茂德在周四的会议上敦促警方加强对极右翼反移民抗议活动的控制1。上周末，身穿黑衣、戴着巴拉克拉瓦帽的抗议者在多佛和朴茨茅斯等地组织了大规模示威，造成警察遭受暴力袭击和港口运营中断1。马哈茂德要求警方充分运用现有权力，包括在抗议活动中建立禁止蒙面区域，并加强情报收集以应对这些由爱国平台等组织策划的新型抗议1。
根据劳工党《犯罪和警务法》于4月生效的规定，警方可在抗议区域禁止佩戴面罩，违反者将面临最高1000英镑罚款或监禁一个月1。在多佛抗议中，约200名黑衣男子在120名寻求庇护者的橡皮艇于周日在索伦特附近被救起后聚集在伊斯特尼码头1。多佛警察最初否认提前收到抗议警告，但后来承认在周五晚间接到警告电话后未采取行动1。英国皇家救生艇协会的志愿者因来自反移民抗议者的"不可接受的辱骂"而被警告不要穿着慈善机构品牌1。
UK Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood has urged police to strengthen enforcement against far-right anti-migrant demonstrations following recent protests in coastal towns.1 Black-clad protesters wearing balaclavas staged major demonstrations last weekend in Dover and Portsmouth, resulting in police assaults and port disruptions.1
Mahmood pressed police to fully utilize their enforcement powers, including the authority to ban face coverings in protest zones, and to improve intelligence gathering to counter these newly organized demonstrations coordinated by groups such as Patriotic Platform.1 Under the Labour government's Crime and Policing Act, which took effect in April, police now have the power to establish no-face-covering zones during protests, with penalties reaching up to 1,000 pounds in fines or up to one month's imprisonment.1 Patriotic Platform is led by Daniel Thomas, a convicted kidnapper.1
Tensions escalated in Dover after approximately 200 black-clad men gathered at Eastney Dock following the rescue of a rubber dinghy carrying 120 asylum seekers near the Solent on Sunday.1 Dover police initially claimed they had received no advance warning of the protest, but later acknowledged that a warning call had been received on Friday evening without being acted upon.1 Volunteers with the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) have faced "unacceptable abuse" from anti-migrant protesters and have been warned against wearing the charity's branded apparel.1
