This is the most incredible headstone I have ever seen. Sad to have not known him with this kind of memorial!

Note the border inscription.

Gravestone inscribed: Alistair Stephen Fabian Mitchell. 13-6-1957, 10-2-2019. Barrister of the Middle Temple. My brain, socialist. My heart, anarchist. My eyes, pacifist. My blood, revolutionary.

Around the edge, the legend: The only man in British legal history to be convicted of biting a policeman with someone else’s teeth.

I found his Times obituary. He was a hero!

"The £40,000 Alistair won in 1997 in a civil action against the police would later pay for his studies for the Bar."

May he rest in power.
