Rees-Mogg protesters hit back at Labour criticism
Clashed with the International Marxist Tendency: Jacob Rees-Mogg

DEMONSTRATORS hit back today at criticism of their protest against Jacob Rees-Mogg’s speech at Cardiff University.

Tory Party chairman Richard Holden and Labour’s shadow Welsh secretary Jo Stevens voiced concerns after social media posts showed Mr Rees-Mogg being chased to a waiting car, escorted by security guards.
