Nigel Farage reacted with anger after a “paramilitary style” Black Lives Matter (BLM) protest took place in the London borough of Brixton on Saturday 1st of August. Several hundred demonstrators marched through Brixton to demand reparations from the UK Government for the actions of the British Empire. The protest was supported by groups including the Afrikan Emancipation Day reparations march committee and Stop The Maangamizi: We Charge Genocide. The protestors included a couple of dozen men dressed all in black, complete with what appeared to be stab proof vests, who marched as a disciplined unit. The group wore patches and carried flags identifying them as coming from the FF Force. Several of the men wore balaclavas whilst others had face masks to protect from COVID-19. Mr Farage, the Brexit Party leader, condemned their presence at the protest on Twitter. He tweeted: “Terrifying scenes in Brixton today. “A paramilitary-style force marching in the streets. This is what the BLM movement wanted from the start and it will divide our society like never before.” Protestors chanted “No Justice, No Peace” as they completed their march whilst a group also shouted “F**k the police”. However, Mr Farage’s comments were condemned by Jonathan Bartley, co-leader of the Green Party. Replying to the leading Brexiteer he tweeted: “You are just trying to create division. “But these people in Brixton today know that love and justice will conquer the fear and hate that you peddle.” Crazy, and that is a respectable political party, the Green Party. A paramilitary-style with love and justice? Who is he kidding?
