There are a few old time nationalists from the North West that will remember this . The Moss Side by-election in 1978 with the NF candidate, Herbert Andrew, a then school teacher. Manchester City Council broke the law by denying Mr.Andrew a suitable venue for a public meeting. So it was, we had to have the meeting on a public field, on Mauldeth Road, off Princess Road, Manchester. The 'film star' VANESSA REDGRAVE, was standing in the same election for the Trotskyist 'Workers Revolutionary Party' and according to Police sources, "whipped up the blacks", and they attacked any white people at the traffic lights in vehicles, in Moss Side. Redgrave was then 'living rough' with mainly black males in Manchester, and the Langley estate in North Manchester in particular. This video was first used publically by SEARCHLIGHT magazine.
