Re the far-right riots, I was at an anti-fascist counter-demonstration in Bristol on Saturday and saw the full wretched horror of these far-right, neo-Nazi scum in person (Report, 4 August). The instant that they arrived, they attacked people. Immediately. There was no slow build-up of tension, no attempt to make a political point, just wanton violence against counter-demonstrators and police.
The torching of the hotel in Rotherham and the attempts to attack other hotels and mosques shows you exactly what they are: racist lynch mobs enacting a nationwide pogrom against Muslims and asylum seekers.
