Bristol Patriots' March for Unity: Antifascist Response

0:00On March 13th, on March 7th, a small far-right group called Bristol Patriots held a march for unity in the city center near the Sinataf. They targeted hotels housing asylum seekers and welcomed known neo-Nazi Ryan Ferguson, along with other extremists like a child sex offender and a former pair military robber. The march quickly stalled on Union Street, outnumbered by hundreds of anti-fascist counter-protesters. Britain shouted anti-Semitic slurs, referencing the Holocaust, caught on video that spread widely online. Police were present but did not intervene right away. Bristol Patriots formed in 2025 from anti-migrant protests, holding monthly events outside hotels despite always being dwarfed by larger, anti-racist crowds. Their rallies drew far-right figures from across the UK, including convicts and neo-Nazi sympathizers, while pushing conspiratorial ideas like the Great Replacement Theory. In the aftermath, Avon and Somerset Police launched an investigation and arrested a 26-year-old
