The Organiser of an Anti-Migrant Protest to Protect Women Is a Woman Beater | | Simon Childs: A convicted fraudster who was arrested for knocking a woman unconscious and fined for drug-driving is the organiser of an anti-migrant protest supposedly aimed at protecting women. In February around 100 protesters gathered outside the Beresford Hotel in Newquay, Cornwall, which has housed asylum seekers for several months, as a wave of anti-migrant protests swept the country after a riot broke out outside a hotel housing refugees on Merseyside. They were outnumbered by about 300 counter-protesters. Local news website Cornwall Live reported that the protest was organised by 36-year-old Philip Milo Gregory. Gregory was charged with fraud at Gloucester Crown Court in May 2017. He went on the run for 20 months, and was eventually caught after he was arrested in Newcastle city centre after allegedly punching a woman in the face and knocking her unconscious. Court documents show that in 2022 Gregory was given a fine and banned from holding or obtaining a driving licence for one year and 42 days for driving under the influence of cocaine and cocaine metabolite, Cornwall Live reports. | | | FEATURE For Trans and Non-Binary People, the Choice Is Between Private Healthcare or Years of Waiting by Vic Parsons All trans people who medically transition now have to pay for it - whether that's in time or money.
