Editor of the anti-fascist magazine Searchlight, Gerry Gable, has been working against far-right groups for decades.

As he told Eddie Mair six weeks before his son was born he received a parcel at home. It turned out to be a letter bomb. Whilst he was waiting for the bomb squad to arrive he says "I just kept my hand on the thing because I thought if I lifted it, something might be released and it might go off."
