Dozens of people were seen surrounding the coach before police arrived to clear them away and carried out arrests. The coach was eventually released and drove away. The Metropolitan police’s deputy assistant commissioner Ade Adelekan said officers had engaged with protesters at the scene and had warned them they could be arrested.

This makes me proud to be British 🇬🇧
FAAAAAAAAR Left causing trouble again.
Of course it would be "legal" foreigners who are blocking the eviction of illegal foreigners! How typical! 😏
Do Gooders who require a wash from a Water Canon…
How many of the “protesters” have an illegal living in their home?
Look at all the police pulling the trojan horse through the gate
i presume these protesters are willing to house and pay for these economic migrants then?
Not one protester is from Peckham,bused in from university
Coppers everywhere. Why? They do nothing but clock nearer their massive pension. Lefty wokes should look at the level of residence at Bibby. Dentist, Doctor, free bus every hour to promenade up Weymouth sea front, free food, heating, laundry, electric…..then pocket money if fancy a pint or a spliff in Weymouth…..
Two tier policing again, where are the riot police like there was on St George’s day ?
Publicity stunt on top of publicity stunt.
Pointless.
How would Brits react if we Swedes rename our asylum centers London, Birmingham, Manchester?
Why are all these protesters not at work ???
More white middle class Tarquin and Tabitha types lol
They've fallen for a Tory trap on the eve of local elections.
You only have to look at the authoritarian far-right comments in this thread.
Police storm troopers.
usual marxists from the universities
What a joke. Why do police receive wages completely incompetent
The bus nor the migrants made it to their destination, so basically a mob of uneducated kids affected government policy.
geert work we love you!
No work?
Every othe country uses water cannons and tear gas. Grow some balls uk police!
Students with no lessons today.
GB News cameraman was assaulted. Police and your country are a laughing stock atm.
Man why aren't there people at work
