Microdose: The Joy of Fascism

A month after racist riots engulfed the country, the ACFM crew ask what fascism – and antifascism – look like in Britain today. Do the riots and counter-protests mark a return to “street politics”? Why didn’t the Labour party align itself with opponents of the pogroms? And how popular are extreme rightwing views among Britain’s frustrated youth?

Jem, Nadia and Keir take a closer look at the make-up of the rioters and the reaction from the public, the media and politicians.
