The co-founders of a movement who tried to stop migrant boats from crossing the Channel have vowed to keep campaigning after being banned from France.

Speaking to GB News, the co-founders hit back at the decision, insisting their activities are "peaceful and within the law".

They said: "I would refute the claim where we have interrupted any police operations at all. Everything we've done has been lawful and legal over there, from our understanding.

"We have found some destroyed boats in the sand dunes. They were destroyed when we found them, unbelievably, and we have monitored the activity of the migrants, monitoring the activity of the police in the military over there. We soon worked out that it's a big orchestrated ploy from our understanding."
