Calais in lockdown over rioting illegal immigrants

The port of Calais has been locked down for two days due to out of control illegal immigrants rioting, attacking cars and attempting to board lorries heading for the UK.

The BBC has reported the lockdown as being caused by a power cut but pictures shared on social media by people in Calais show the real reason. French police have been forced to use tear gas on hundreds of illegal immigrants targeting cars with UK number plates and chanting "Fuck the UK". They have also been jumping into the sea next to ferries and jumping into the Eurotunnel trains causing long delays on ferries and trains.
