Burnham says masked men at ports are out to intimidate

Andy Burnham on Friday condemned protesters in black clothing and face coverings at southern ports, saying their tactics were designed to intimidate and were not the British way. He told ITV Meridian he understood concern about immigration but that attacking police and intimidating the public was different. Masked men blocked roads into the Port of Dover earlier this month, causing a four-mile queue.
