Britain First thugs try to detain Hope Not Hate photographer

ASHAMED Britain First thugs attempted yesterday to make a citizen’s arrest on a photographer taking snaps of the latest leg of their hate tour. 

Members of the self-styled paramilitary group pounced on the female snapper as she followed them to their latest meeting at the Park Lane pub in Wigan. 

Photos sent to the Morning Star show how Britain First leader Paul Golding fled into an Asian-run shop in a bid to avoid being caught on camera.
