Beating the Fascists: The authorised history of Anti-Fascist Action

More of an insult hurling exercise than a review, if i'm honest.
Maybe that's why is simply says : Civil Liberty correspondent.
 
He doesn't even attempt to dispute any of the events raised in the book, but instead dismisses everything as exaggerated thuggery. No relevent analysis whatsoever.

As for Mal being a "do nothing blogger"....just look at the guy who runs the website!

An obviously frustrated Tory boy (and blogger) Kevin Scott "BA Hons". It's hilarious how he sticks his degree letters after his name, when it's only a BA for gods sake - my money is that it's in Cookery, or fucking Tourism and Travel.
 
repost the link delroy it disnae work!

That's the point mate, i would edit it and break the link, you too red storm you've quoted the full url....

*reads* He doesn't sound like a middle aged fash, his writing makes him sound exactly like some sneery ex student as he seems to be. got the image of the 4 libertarian types in my head: "better dead than red." Ominous music though eh, ouchhh.
 


What's the background to this vid?

Well its Ken Henderson ex BNP regional organiser from Rochdale and Im thinking it was shot for a student film project. Guy with beard at the begining is Peter Barker who runs the Northwestnationalists website

He hasn't even read it. What he's seen is the promo on youtube. For example he lazily repeats the usual error of Jan Taylor being RA - but totally ignores the accurate reference to LH receiving a similar sentence for Inla activities, which is a bit of a giveaway. He's also under the impression FTB has just come out - when the published date is 2010.
 
Issues 22, 23, 24 and 25 of Fighting Talk are currently being scanned for the anti-fascist archive. I believe that these are the last, although there is no evidence of it in issue 25.
 
kevin scott - what a tool that man is. i think his ba is in history btw. he won't have bought the book, the tight cunt!
 
There was a notorious clash between the NF and anti-fascists at Hatfield Poly in the late 1970s when the Front came off by far the worst.

One of the key anti-fascist organisers on the day was a well known Man United Cockney Red (and RA activist). A top bloke.

Ironically, Nicky Crane was also a Cockney Red from South East London. He had “MUFC” tattooed on his knuckles below his British Movement Kent Branch tattoo.

I sat next to him on a coach going to an away game once and had no idea who he was until afterwards.

Regarding Nicky Crane is this him. Sort of remember seeing him in Transmissions video: Psychic TV many moons ago.
I'm pretty sure there is one where he walks around central london covers himself in a white sheet and sets light to himself with a petrol.

Any fellow anoraks have this book to hand: 'Everyone wants to be fuehrer:
national socialism in Australia and New Zealand' (1972) by David Harcourt.
Looking for someone to scan up the brief Irish entry on pages 132 - 133.

Much appreciated.
