Andrew Tierney, one of our Liverpool super-activists, was convicted yesterday of common assault after having been attacked by a gang of state-sponsored political thugs from UAF (Unite Against Fascism) in Liverpool city centre and having the courage to defend his brother from the attackers. 

Yet another of the David Cameron-backed UAF and Socialist Workers’ Party thugs has been convicted of public violence following an attack on a policeman which took place during a protest outside last year’s Question Time.
