The small boats crisis has drawn new protests in Dover and Portsmouth recently, sounding the alarm on government inefficiency at the heart of planning and emergency control levers in Whitehall.
The attention given to extremist activity is raising voices also in Parliament, where parties argue the rights and wrongs of political debate in which law and order is a reward of hard work or a complaint to batter incumbents with.

Rev Chris Wickland, by example, has worked hard to listen to local communities in his religious capacity for many years. His verdict is too much confusion in the corridors of power has led to a ‘power cut’ in authority in Number 10.
The lines of communication from and to political parties has suffered a shortfall and too much activism has entailed a loss of respect for the political system in itself. The situation can only get worse as the crisis in Dover continues.
