Wonderful insight into the beginnings of militant anti-fascistism in britain. I'd love to show this video to those people who always go on about how peaceful, servile and obedient people used to be "back in the day". Very good!

Third:As to the issue of beating up police... The protestors refused to be dispersed so the police mounted a baton charge, attacking first. I'm sure even you would agree this is sufficient provocation for retaliation... Even if you never get to see this I'll still ge the satisfaction of knowing someone will and know the ignorance of fascist scum.
