However:

"When I check I realise that the leaflet wasnââ‚ ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢t produced until two days after the assault. And when I check with the police, they say that in Dobrovolskiâââ€Å ¡Ã‚¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s statement there was no mention of a Respect supporter attacking him. They put out an advisory to the press about this, which doesnââ‚ƚ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢t prevent one or two papers running with the story."

Does that sound to you like the finest traditions of British Politics?
What it doesn't sound to me is the labour party attacking him.
Perhaps you can provide evidence to back up your comment Graham?
