Far-right activist Daniel Thomas, also known as Danny Tommo, was arrested by police following an incident in the English Channel where an inflatable dinghy was slashed. Thomas had been following migrants traveling toward England and filmed himself damaging the boat, which had an emergency responder on board.
The arrest highlights a newly adopted, confrontational tactic among anti-immigration agitators who have previously led protests against migrants crossing the channel in small boats. Police confirmed the arrest on Thursday as authorities respond to the escalation in direct interference with maritime and rescue operations.
