	In 1980 Ian returned to London and stayed at a squat with Ron Hartley. He also spent more time with Suggsy of the band Madness. While in the capital, he was also knocking around with people from the London National Front. After much deliberation and discussions with the YNF leader, Joe Pearce, he said he'd consider reforming the band and join the newly launched [[Rock Against Communism]].

	Back With A Bang became the Skinhead anthem of the early eighties and the Last Resort shop was doing a roaring trade in selling this twelve-inch single. On the seventh of October Skrewdriver played their first gig in nearly three years, at the One-hundred Club on London's Oxford street. The gig was a prelude to the much publicised 'Back With A Bang' concert two weeks later at the same venue. Both gigs went well and earned the group a regular slot at the One-Hundred club.

	~~Nationalist~~ tracks, such as Don't Let 'Em Pull You Down, were indicative of where Ian was taking the band. Unpopular with the music press but music to the ears of the NF and BM (British Movement) Skinheads that made up most of Skrewdriver's audience. Ian also doctored some of his old songs to represent his new direction. Government Action had the line 'You've got to be old to get money' changed to 'You've got to be black to get money' . The group all wore Union Jack patches on their flight jackets and after only a couple of gigs, Ian had the group kitted-out in an all black, fascist style, Skinhead uniform.

	In 1983,The NF were keen to re-launch [[Rock Against Communism]] and so set about arranging a concert in Stratford, East London. On April 2nd 1983, over 600 fans turned up to see Skrewdriver supported by The Ovaltinees and Peter And The Wolf.
