 He's obvious Troll Bait 
  
 Yes it was a a big mistake not to use a handle right from the off. 
  
 But having made that big mistake and having been identified and challenged 
 there simply was no turning back.

 His Twitter biography says simply: "My own person - I won't be bullied by 
 antisemitic trolls." He is a partner at London firm Seddons. 
  
 The Twitter exchanges are believed to involve neo-Nazis, one of whom has 
 been imprisoned for threats made to Mr Lewis and others. 
  
 In an interview last year with The Times of Israel, he was quoted as saying 
 that I do like to take people on", with the paper noting that he could be 
 found tweeting "at all hours of the day, often indulging in hours-long 
 back-and-forths with anti-Semitic trolls". 
  
 He told the paper: "I don't like to block people, because I believe in a 
 free press, and I also don't want to give them the satisfaction of putting 
 'blocked by Mark Lewis' on their timeline, as though they had intimidated 
 me.

 Talk about pinning a "Kick Me" sign on your back. 
  
 And he's in a Wheelchair. Patronising or not, I'd be inclined to allow him 
 some leeway on that account as well/ But if he wants to keep up his 
 practice.....
