Since when can you get done for assault for telling somebody to do one?

It can be dealt with in two ways
Section 5 of the public order act,(public place only) for the instance of issuing a penalty notice for disorder, or locking someone up on a friday night who has had to many beverages and is acting in a manner which is likely to cause harrassment, alarm or distress.
Common assault which falls under section 39 of the Criminal Justice Act 1988,
"do one" obviously not that wording, but Im sure you get my drift.
If it is caused either intentionally or recklessly, this is a point to be proven, under caution.
This can be just words, no physical element need be involved.

Offence wording for section 39;
It is committed by a person who causes another person to apprehend the immediate use of unlawful violence.
So "fudge off" in an agressive manner can be taken as section 39.

I was attacked and defended myself, he had witnesses lie and I think it was known by just about everyone they were full of shit.
Was also first time I had been in trouble except for someone trying to get me done for assault when I was 14 again self defense.

to be fair, there's a stated case where by someone was charged with assault for making silent phone calls.

abh is a lesser charge when you've wounded someone with a little slap, typical saturday night pub brawel sort of thing, gbh is where you've properly given someone a good hiding
How do they define between the two? as I was getting charged for GBH but had it dropped to ABH and walked away with a final warning.
it's a sad state of affairs, but it's what the CPS will run with. I've had this a few times where someone has been arrested for a section 20 or section 47, and cps has dropped the charge to 47 or 39 as the defendant will pleade guilty to the lesser charge.

They probably wasted time doing a guy making phonecalls while there was a group of 20 properly assaulting a guy right under their noses.

What do you want to do?
Do you have a trade?
Are you looking for a trade?
Are you fit?
Can you run a mile and a half in 12 mins?

All these are questions you have to answer or be fit for.
(Edit) Totally out of character or not.. you control yourself. Call them see what they say
