UK: Anti-immigration campaigners to protest in Dover on Jan. 11

Anti-immigration campaign groups plan to protest at the port in Dover from 13:00 Jan. 11. Nationalist groups will denounce the UK government's policy on asylum seekers. Participation in the event may reach hundreds of protestors.

Officials will likely deploy additional police to facilitate the demonstration. Security authorities will prevent protestors from entering the port's restricted areas; however, the protest activity may prompt delays in access to the docks. Increased security measures may prompt localized disruptions. Scuffles between protestors and the police cannot be ruled out.
