Il try and find the write up in a back copy of Searchlight...bound to be a report. Remember one guy who tried to infiltrate us on the day..looked a bit iffy but gave a spiel about being local... as it was a scorcher day he took off his black leather jacket and I noticed on the inside lapel a national states rights party pin...bit runic looking....he noticed me clocking it and scarpered. For info....his boat is on the cover of the magazine that 'Camerawork' did on Lewishaham ..arms folded looking pretty hard.....same jacket...

Fowarned had a loony theory that facsism was actually linked to the aristocracy and landowners as a class base.

Not sure about that steps but the said publication as far as I remember was a bit of a mish mash of local intel...a rake of addresess...and some lefty blurb. But his stuff has been considered, in hindsight, a bit on the spooky side and I think it ended quite messy.

An image I remember well.

Not on the cover as such, but if you scroll down you will see the scrote in question, in the centre of the picture and yes, with arms folded, surrounded by NF heavies. There's that racist loon, Derek Day, to the right of the picture in the background.

I hadn't realised until reading that document that a third of the Metropolitan police were there in force on the day.

Thanks for the correction tech yeah page 9.......but I wonder who he was....dont seem to remember him being on anything after them days...as for Derek Day....was on that march when he pulled a shotgun and pointed it from a window...absolute loon.
 
I remember Dereck Day getting a hiding inBrick lane one Sunday morning around 1977/8. Same morning we were having a fag just off brick Lane and a group of lads next to us asked for a light .this bloke George who worked at one of the LT engineering works gave him a light then flicked his fag in the blokes face and it kicked off. George had spotted a NF pin on his top

Some bits on Excalibur House and Derrick Day here (including the Brick Lane hiding, lifted from AFA's "Heroes and Villains" pamphlet):

Wasn't Relf's house in Leamington ?Can remember the one in Welling and they had a big turn out for a march in Paddington as well. Do you remember the Peter Marriner business?

Aye, Relf lived in Leamington, at the time Colin Jordan lived a few miles up the road in Tile Hill in Coventry.
The BM March you mention was featured in the World in Action programme about the BM, large skinhead contingent on it.

Lets start a caption comp.
 
None of the young lads look particularly Aryan. The lad on the right not raising his arm certainly doesn't. :D

"Excuse me sir. Is this the Stamford Hill Synagogue group?"
