Anti-Migrant Vigilante Groups Surge Across UK

🐿️ The Squirrel's Take

These groups are using 'community protection' as a cover for racist thuggery, and their increasing organization poses a real threat to public safety and social cohesion.

💡 Why it matters

This surge in vigilante groups could lead to increased violence against migrants, strain police resources, and further polarize communities across the UK.

At least 28 anti-migrant vigilante groups have formed in the UK in the last 18 months, engaging in street patrols and blocking ports. The surge follows recent incidents where black-clad vigilantes blocked roads in Portsmouth and Dover.
