One I recall, was a protest organised by local anarchists was to demonstrate outside a Warwickshire (or thereabouts) Gaol to back up a 'class war' prisoner, who subscribed to Black Flag and Freedom. being persecuted for his opinions - put in solitary. Turned out he was in solitary for murdering another prisoner. Oh and a few GBH convictions, plus murder, none of them related to politics.

One morning they heard a loudspeaker message that there would be an official opening with Shirley Williams, who was one of the Gang of Four which led to the founding of the SDP. They decided to protest against her, took a banner and then realised it was Charlie Williams, the late comedian. Beat that!!
