It didn't need hours of preparation. I didn't need a national organisation. I didn't need violence. When a BNP campaigner was seen posting leaflets through letterboxes in the Leeman Road area of Holgate Ward, the people on the receiving end of their vile propaganda knew exactly what to do: tell the BNP to leave the area.

After last nights anti-fash leafleting when Holgate, Acomb and Westfield were targeted, Leeman Road was today's target. Some 500 houses got leaflets, with a few incidents to report. Funniest was when someone emerged from a house to attack an anti-fascist because they mis-read the leaflet that had just landed on there doormat. After apologising and chatting, she joined in the leafleting trip. Coming to the end of the trip, a car appeared in the area, a turquoise Hyundi, reg P127 JWA, stopped mid way down a street, and then backed up slowly following a campaigner.
