Some years ago I defended a man charged with violent disorder. He was a counter-protester to a march by the far-right, which had turned violent.
Throughout the trial, the officer in charge of the investigation referred to the far-right group as “anti-immigration protesters”.
The ‘anti-immigration protesters’ racially abusing a British woman in front of her daughter.
The ‘anti-immigration protesters’ shouting “sieg heil” and throwing nazi salutes.
The ‘anti-immigration protesters’ spraying swastikas on public buildings.
