Hundreds Injured In London's Worst Blackshirt Riot
Headline: "Hundreds Injured in London's Worst Blackshirt Riot." Adult Caucasian male police officers, on foot and horseback, using large batons, trying to quell and clear large crowds of adult Caucasian men led by Sir Oswald Mosley, leader of British Union of Fascists, from area of London's East End; stalled double-decker trolley and buses in street. Police beating back crowd, occasionally grabbing and detaining rioters. By 1934, there were 40,000 avowed, card-carrying, stiff-arm-saluting fascists in Britain, and Mosley regularly spoke to crowds that numbered over 100,000. Right up until the outbreak of the Second World War, British fascism remained popular and "peace" rallies were frequently held in support of Hitler and Mussolini.
