At a large Palestine march in Manchester city centre today, YouTube clickbait merchant Charlie Veitch and a handful of his hangers-on tried to attack the front of the procession despite being told by police and stewards not to.
Deliberately seeking to cause trouble, and obviously great offence, he walked right to the front of the march sticking his mobile phone in everyone’s faces.
More sinister
More sinister, perhaps, is the gap-toothed Tommy Robinson live stream thug, partially pictured with Veitch above, who was filming everything and photographing the organisers.
No doubt “Tommy” would be proud. But given that these are public events, to which all are invited, and the organisers public figures, one can only speculate as to their intention here.
Starting trouble
At events like this, everyone is filming everyone else. Fair enough. But, apart from Veitch and his set, nobody is trying to start trouble. Veitch appears to be popular with thugs and kids on bikes. But when he’s regularly seen with thugs at Britain First and similar events, one can only conclude the worst. But because Veitch is well known it works against him.
Event organisers know who he is. And they know because we have reported upon his nefarious activities. Apart from one minor scuffle lasting only a few seconds, Veitch failed again.
