Last summer, in the wake of the horrendous Southport murders, I was driving through my home city when I chanced upon some racist ‘protesters’. I rolled down my window and shouted expletives at them while make a ‘wanker’ sign then drove off in a hurry when they approached my car. Not my finest moment but fuck me it felt good
