The protesters surrounded the offices of Marco Longhi, who is seeking re-election as the MP for Dudley.
Mr Longhi accused the protesters, who he said objected to his stance on asylum seekers, of trying to intimidate his staff.
He said the protest was against his campaign slogan 'Putting Dudley people first, not so-called asylum seekers'.
Mr Longhi, who has been MP for Dudley North since 2019, has told asylum seekers not to attend his surgeries, saying he has neither the powers nor the resources to handle their claims.
