Britain's small ports and marinas are wide open to returning ISIS fighters because they are not policed, warns terror tsar

Small ports, marinas and beaches across the UK could give terrorists an easy route into Britain because they are not policed, a major report has warned.

David Anderson, the terror laws watchdog chief, said jihadists could attempt to sneak across our porous border at hundreds of remote locations because of the absence of stringent checks.

He expressed concerns that ‘foreign fighters’ returning from Syria and Iraq could breach the country’s security checks using small boats and planes.
