The Britain First ‘battle bus’ saga has taken yet another predictable turn, with Paul Golding now launching an online appeal claiming he faces a driving ban and needs supporters’ cash to “help”.

Fascists attack Manchester Stop The War meeting
After Britain First’s distastrous day out in Manchester last weekend, local fascists have tried to up the ante with a cowardly attack on a Stop the War meeting in the city centre on Thursday evening.
