RIOT AT MIGRANT PROTEST

British anarchists from the No Borders group were involved in clashes that brought the channel port of Calais to a standstill.

“They turned up looking for trouble,” said a spokesman for the elite French CRS riot police.

Chris Morgan, 31, who was among the 2,000 protesters, said: “Nothing should prevent immigrants travelling from one country to the other.

“Borders between the UK and France shouldn’t exist and we’re fighting to get rid of them.”

British tourists were caught up in the violence.

Paul Rochester, 36, from Norwich, said: “As soon as we got off the ferry we could see something was going on. We’re not hanging around to see what happens.”
