A JOURNALIST who was barred from last year’s Labour conference after being secretly branded a “known extreme activist” won permission yesterday to bring a case against the police.

Michael Segalov, 24, was refused accreditation for Labour’s 2017 conference in Brighton, despite having no criminal record and having never even been arrested.

He claims to have “lost work as a result of the decision” and “fears that his career will be further undermined” as he may not be able to attend other party political conferences in the future.
