Jobbik fascists forced to flee
Protesters drive off far-right as Vona attempts to rally hatred in London
Anti-fascist campaigners struck a blow against the far-right yesterday by kettling supporters of the Hungarian neonazi party Jobbik inside Holborn Tube station.
A planned rally in Camden with Jobbik leader Gabor Vona, scheduled on the eve of Holocaust Memorial Day, was cancelled as more than 70 fascists were surrounded by protesters and forced to shelter in the station ticket hall.
After two hours they had to get back on the underground and reconvene at a dismal and last-minute gathering in Hyde Park.
