Sometimes Anti-Social, Always Anti-Facist
Hi fellow punks of Rebellion and punks around the world. My name is Vikki and on the 3rd of August 2024 in Blackpool town centre a demo of undesirables (putting it very very politely due to not wanting this page taken down before its began) descended on Blackpool town centre to cause chaos and destruction. From starting the demonstration outside the town hall they moved to outside the Winter Gardens where Rebellion Punk Festival is held every year with thousands of punks in attendance. Wanting to keep fellow punks safe and keep things peaceful as it could be, a group of punks formed a line opposing the demo crowd. Things kicked off with bottles being and bricks being thrownaround at the church opposite The Winter Gardens and then also started to be thrown at the punk crowd and police. Wojtek was one of the punks who was ready to defend others and stand up against fascism.. only to be knocked to the ground and smashed his head on the floor. Paramedics were on the scene and after some time Wojtek was taken by ambulance to the Victoria Hospital in Blackpool. A friend had replied to me asking for information and a name about the man I had seen lying on the floor. A good few people I have spoken with had said about trying to sort something as a good gesture and I thought raising some money to go towards medical costs, replacement air travel costs and anything else that Wojtek just wanting to enjoy his weekend in my town will need to help in his recovery.
***Latest update is that Wojtek is still in Victoria Hospital, still seeming very confused and in a lot of pain. On a lot of pain killers and just wanting to be discharged to and to go home.***
Please give a anything you can, love not hate guys!!
