"Face masks at protests: If not now, when?" A piece Netpol wrote for @freedompress.bsky.social in April 2025 that argues: if a campaign of mass non-compliance is too difficult for many to endorse, then we still need to know what meaningful solidarity looks like freedomnews.org.uk/2025/04/02/f...

It's been a brutal year for antifascists; not least in Bristol. Avon & Somerset police have used the activity of a small, inept, despised group of racists as an opportunity to stage large-scale public order operations in the city.

Ever wonder why most of the media provide wall-to-wall coverage of everything the far right does or says, while ignoring far bigger rallies and events and far more interesting discussions elsewhere on the political spectrum? There's no mystery. It's because they want the far right to triumph.

Last Saturday, we reported from the dismal, hate-filled (and possibly final) march of the so-called Bristol Patriots. Revealing their true colours, the far-right group invited and welcomed with open arms self-proclaimed neo-Nazis, a child sex offender, a bank robber and other unsavoury characters.

Meanwhile, Bristol Patriots are imploding, with Ben Pinker and "the boys" publicly splitting from the group, but taking with them the crucial backing of *checks notes*... Ben Pinker's Nan.
Facebook status from Bristol Patriots "activist" Ben Pinker:

Unfortunately myself and my associated friends have had to make the decision of leaving the organisation of Bristol Patriots for reasons I don’t want to disclose. 

We will be going back to being patriotic in own our  rights as we previously were. We did try to express our concerns but they were not heard. 

Much love Ben & the boys 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿Christine Pinker: Live your dream Ben, and keep going with the boys xxxx

On the attempted far right attack on an East Bristol pub. Yesterday, 25-30 members of Bristol Patriots attacked our fundraiser at the Red Lion in Easton. They arrived together in vans and cars and tried to force their way into the pub. Due to the quick thinking of people there, they were shut out.
