Trans woman punched by Robinson's far-right goons says attack won't stop her standing up to hate

A TRANS woman who was attacked by Tommy Robinson supporters told the Star yesterday that she will not be cowed into silence.

Mr Robinson’s far-right goons went on a violent rampage against local anti-racism campaigners in Warrington, Cheshire, on Thursday.

Alice Edwards, who lives in the area, was left bloodied with a broken nose after an attack by three of Mr Robinson’s supporters at a counter-demo.
