Apart from assisting in video footage and the podcast interview on experiences of policing and the Forward Intelligence Teams, it seems I am to go down in history as “the bald one”. But then again I have been called everything from “commie” to “fascist” to “scum” over the years, from all sectors of society, so nothing new there.
