Fury of the mothers

September 20, 1977

Daily Mirror, 20th September 1977.
By SIUARY GREIG and MICHAEL MOCARTHY

CHILD sex campaigners were ambushed and beaten up by hundreds of furious women last night.

They were jostled, kicked, punched, scratched and spat at. And policemen who tried to protect them came under a barrage of stink bombs, rotten fruit, eggs and even a smoke bomb.
