A ‘vintage hop’ event was taking place in Rotherham town centre today, an event for all the family and featured musical entertainment on a stage and dances.

Britain First decided to set up base around the stage area and hand out their newspapers. Deputy leader Jayda Fransen even said in a video uploaded by Britain First that they were “pleased to be part of it”.

But Britain First were campaigning under the noses of the event organisers and the Council. They did not take part in the event in any way, they just used it to further their cause.

Note: The Britain First newspaper once shared ISIS propaganda and Britain First passed it off as truth to readers.
