The port of Calais was temporarily closed on Saturday after a ferry was stormed by 50 migrants from the nearby "Jungle" camp, earlier visited by Jeremy Corbyn.

Up to 500 migrants had broken off from a protest march through the town about migrants' conditions, according to the mayor, Natacha Bouchart.

Around 150 then broke through the port's perimeter fence, and 50 made it to the gangplanks of the P&O ferry Spirit of Britain. Photographs later showed the migrants standing on the upper decks of the ferry.

Police have arrested 24 migrants.

A further 11 people believed to be from the No Borders activist group were also detained after being found on the ship.

The group, which has British members in Calais, has been accused by police of encouraging migrants from the Jungle to riot.

Officials did not give the nationality of the No Borders activists detained.

In Europe there is serious talk of suspending the "Schengen Agreement" which is essentially the open borders section of the European Common Market, over various names  and acronyms over the last 50+ years.

Initially only six countries, then expanded. Initially only to bring down harmful tariffs, later expanded to open free movement of people and goods.

All that a muslim migrant needs, is to gain entry into this zone and they can go anywhere in the zone.

The serious talk is about re imposing country-borders.
