They came to my city a few months ago when Robinson was trying to stir up anti-asylum-seeker violence. They targeted a section of our high street with a large number of Muslim-owned businesses. Almost none of the "demonstrators" had any local connection.
Local people turned out in vastly greater numbers than the fascists, and the business owners had also stockpiled bricks on the roofs of several of the businesses in case things kicked off more than they did. As it was, the rent-a-crowd fucked off pretty quickly when they were faced with a unified opposition. Only five or six remained, all whingeing about being "cancelled" and playing the victim.
And that's how you keep the scum out.
I know far too many (now) Farage voters who have wedded the "we need a change" motto. Once committed, they've become, 'not racist, but we need to stop the boats'. Logical questions make them very defensive of their new ideology.
