Dozens of masked, black-clad people blocked roads into Dover port on Saturday, causing delays and congestion for up to 45 minutes. Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds condemned the disruption, saying it differed from peaceful protest and was not something expected in Britain. Patriot Platform, an anti-immigration group, appears to have claimed responsibility for the demonstration.
