Six of us left the pub at 3am and were saying our goodbyes 30 metres away, then a group of 3-4 men left the pub, made a beeline for me, kicked me in the back, threw me on the ground, slamming my head, and kicked me in the skull. My friends were punched trying to defend me.

The group then scarpered: I don’t know if they said anything in the melee. I’m fine other than a big bump on my head and a cut back. Given the far right attacks I’ve had in the streets, and generally escalating far right threats I’ve had, I’m in no doubt as to what this is.

Earlier this year a far right activist took pictures of me in a pub with these threatening messages, for example. The far right menace is growing, it’s real, it’s violent, and it’s targeting minorities and leftists. We can’t let them intimidate us, and we will defeat them.

This is absolutely disgraceful. Glad to know this wasn’t any worse and you seem chipper, all things considered. This is out of control. This is the Farage-Johnson effect This commonality of this mayhem was last seen under Thatcher
