Thank you for posting.
I think it was a very considered article.

Glad to see the New Statesman taking up the baton from the Spectator and The Times.

I do find this worrying. "It's ok to punch Nazis" was bad enough - for one thing, who decides who the "Nazis" are? For some Momentumites it would appear to be anyone who disagrees with their Dear Leader - and it's now spread to "It's ok to punch TERFs" (sorry).

I do wonder where it ends, and I also bet that those arrested will be astonished at being collared for what they would see as merely doling out righteous punishment.

A good article although it seemed to come to an abrupt end.

Agree I thought my connection had been lost. It needed a final paragraph.
