1945. Facsism returned to the streets of London. What followed was the war after the war.

For four years London and the South East would witness vicious confrontations between the remnants of Oswald Mosley's British Union of facists and Jewish ex-serviceman organised in the 43 Group.

Their members were decorated soldiers, airmen and sailors with a sprinkling of East End toughs and youngsters like trainee barber Vidal Sassoon. They broke with the leaders of the the Jewish community in their no-holds barred, physical opposition to the return of facism to Britain's streets. They operated beyond the law and were fuelled by rage, guilt at the fate of Europe's Jews, and the tension of British policy in Palestine. Their goal was to drive facism from the streets and silence its message of intolerance, anti-semitism and racism. Alan Dein uncovers a little known story of post war conflict.
