A POLITICAL activist who says his life has been 'shattered' by false rape claims is returning to Weston to begin a fight for new laws to protect people from malicious allegations.
Malcolm Blackman made national headlines two weeks ago when he went on trial at the Old Bailey accused of raping a woman at the Occupy London demonstration at St Paul's Cathedral.
Jurors have since cleared the 46-year-old of any wrong-doing - and now Mr Blackman says he wants to return home 'with his head up high' and campaign to save others from having their lives 'ruined' in the same way.
