Just found out that some Sedgefield folk went into Stockton to help drive the Blackshirts out. Immensely proud of the locals. More research required.

93yrs ago local anti fash outnumbered and drove Blackshirts out of Stockton. I felt the need to visit the plaque today as it’s the job of regular people to keep the voice of hatred and division quiet. Those who seek to divide us are not our friends #TheBattleOfStockton #TheyShallNotPass

I thought it was illegal to wear fascist blackshirt uniform in public in the UK. Are we really going to allow this to happen. The fash are emboldened and getting too big for their boots. I’m ready to stand like the people of Stockton did on 10 September 1933.
