Maria MacLachlan, 61, attended a demonstration at Speakers' Corner last year
She claims transgender activist Tara Wolf attacked her and broke her camera
A judge warned Ms MacLachlan to refer to Ms Wolf using the correct pronoun
Ms Wolf, 26, of no fixed abode, denies one count of assault by beating
A radical feminist who claims she was attacked by a transgender activist during a protest denies she was filming her in order to 'out' her as transgender online.
Tara Wolf, 26, is accused of assaulting Maria MacLachlan, 61, during a demonstration at Speaker's Corner, Hyde Park on September 13, last year.
Under cross examination from Ms Wolf's defense counsel Jodie Anderson, Ms McLachlan denied a suggestion she was seeking to 'out' Ms Wolf as transgender online.
She claimed she had pulled out the camera and started filming because she thought she would get some 'amusing footage'.
But Jodie Anderson, defending, argued she was deliberately trying to antagonise the protesters and intended to post the footage on her blog, Facebook page and Twitter in a bid to out them as trans.
Wolf, who faces one charge of assault by beating, admits being involved in the fracas but insists she was acting in self-defence.
Ms Maclachlan, who is active on social media, said: 'I thought it would make some very amusing footage - it didn't really occur to me that someone standing several feet away with a camera would be antagonising when they themselves had voluntarily gone along to this event.'

After yesterdays Spam sessions by Catherine and her potential lovers...I found this topic. Agree it does not have much news value.

Its true though. You actually approve of a grown man punching a 60 year old woman over filming a protest?
