Britain First were represented on the march by Chris John of Torquay, and fascist thug Nick Hubble of Exeter. Hubble, like Bamford, is a relative of Nigel Murfin. Hubble was recently arrested for assaulting an SUTR activist that was attempting to stop him from harassing refugees.

Unfortunately for Bamford, his behaviour appears to be meeting some resistance from the local community. He arrived in Exeter to see his face splashed all over the city, referring to him as a “cowardly Nazi”. Bamford was overheard calling his Mum to let her know their address had been exposed.

These three, alongside Dean’s partner - Ellie Castle - are now the driving force behind the far-right’s renewed street presence in and around Exeter. Castle works at St Leonard’s pharmacy in the city, where we’re sure her patients are not yet aware of her far-right activity.

All of these characters made attempts to intimidate refugees attempting to leave the hotel, who were attempting to walk to the local bus stop with their children. Without the presence of local antifascists, Murfin, Grant and Heal presented a real threat of physical violence towards the refugees

Although the far-right could initially muster only a handful of protestors, heavily outnumbered by local antifascist and community groups who came out to defend the refugees - they built an alliance over the summer and were eventually able to present a sizeable force outside the hotel each week.

Nigel Murfin was concerned about the image of his party – Britain First – due to the type of refugees at the hotel being exclusively women and children, but became the main tormentor of these refugees, when the opportunity presented itself. Murfin has previous convictions for harassing women.
