A momentum's growing for

demonstration against 'Tommy Robinson' next month as pics from

in Hackney, meetings in Leicester & elsewhere show.
A movement is stirring; all out on October 26th!

This moving, powerful pic of Neville Lawrence by

reminds us that Stephen Lawrence should have enjoyed his 50th birthday today...May he RIP.
Love to his family & friends.
@AntiRacismDay
This, at Liverpool St Station, London, dedicated to the Kindertransport children who were organised to evade the Nazis, seems apt, as we mourn & continue to show solidarity to refugees, in the face of heartless governments like that of
@BorisJohnson
#RefugeesWelcome
Thanks to
@jeremycorbyn
for this heartfelt and powerful message to the UAF educational trip to Krakow and Auschwitz; commemorating the horrors of the Holocaust and highlighting the need to unite today against fascism, antisemitism, Islamophobia and far-right racism.
Hitler lookalike Alek Yerbury is talking of targeting picket lines. Should his tiny group try it, trades unionists will rally round & stop such fascist intimidation.

@Searchlight_mag
Big turnout of anti fascists in Nottingham remembering the Southport victims & opposing far right thugs.
Brilliant at 24 hours notice!

A truly wonderful artist. A massive loss...
Here, with Christy Moore, on a

demonstration.
She also backed the Anti Nazi League's relaunch.
May she RIP. Love to family & friends.
@lmhrnational
In October 2018, City of London police allowed fascist 'Tommy Robinson' to speak from a stage outside the Old Bailey; a unique, ugly, moment.
But those questioning the monarchy peacefully, are arrested...
The right to protest must continue to be fought for.
#NoJusticeNoPeace
Fascist Tommy Robinson today being arrested. An unsurprising ending to a farcical appearance at Hyde Park, London. No social distancing and he paid the price. Robinson is going nowhere fast.

The English Defence League main goon, Ian Crossland, so superbly outclassed by Saffi Khan here in Birmingham, in 2017, has never recovered 😀😁
To her & all anti fascist sisters, we salute you.
@AntiRacismDay
Next time 'Tommy Robinson' calls a march, let's ensure we do everything possible to get the numbers out like tonight against the far right & inflict a serious defeat on all he represents!
@AntiRacismDay
Hat's off to anti fascists in

. Only way Tommy Robinson got in was via police taking him through backs of peoples houses. Hundreds drowned out his poison.

If you live in Stoke, Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Bristol, Cardiff, Oxford, Nottingham, Newcastle, join anti fascist opposition to those seeking to exploit the horrific Southport killings.
There are numerous far right events called. Follow

Awful news from Italy as former Milan academy player Seid Visin kills himself, leaving a heartbreaking suicide note revealing racist abuse. This is why anti racism is so vital. Thoughts with family & friends, RIP.

Great speech by

demonstration in London! Fine historical examples given of why protests are critical
eg why we need unity in action against far right now.
"Learn from how the Nazis took power in Germany".

@LouiseRawAuthor
Solidarity with all anti racists turning out to oppose the crowd of thugs, football hooligans and Nazis rallying behind convicted Fascist fraudster 'Tommy Robinson' today. But why is he allowed a massive screen in Parliament Square to project his 'documentary'
@AntiRacismDay
Fantastic turnout in Leicester. 300 anti fascists now, 50 far right thugs.
Leicester at its best.
We have taken their assembly point.
@AntiRacismDay
@LeicesterSUTR
RIP Michael Parkinson, one of the original backers of the Anti Nazi League, who were critical to destroying the nazi National Front in the late 1970s.
(Here of course, with "the greatest", Muhammad Ali).
@PeterHain
@HolborowPaul
As others have rightly said, not a word from likes of
@RishiSunak
when the nazi National Front, Holocaust Deniers all, have been allowed to march at the Cenotaph on Remembrance Day, of all days!
Their pitiful numbers isn't the point...
@Searchlight_mag
Remembering Anne Frank who was born
#OTD
in 1929. Murdered by the nazis in Belsen concentration camp, aged just 15, her work & legacy will long live on & inspire.
@AntiRacismDay
Thinking of the great Joe Strummer, born
#OTD
in 1952.
@TheClash
playing the first Rock Against Racism/ANL carnival in 1978, was a game changer. Strummer's songs about asylum seeking are hugely pertinent. Joe Strummer was a committed anti fascist. Greatly missed.
@AntiRacismDay
Thread - Very sad to hear that Beatty Orwell has died aged 105.
An incredible woman who was involved in the Battle of Cable St, ex
@TowerHamletsNow
Mayor.
She encouraged anti fascists to keep up the good fight, as here.
A great person who laughed heartily & was an inspiration.
Jeremy Hardy would have been 60 today...greatly missed, much loved. One of the funniest, one of the best. Best wishes & thinking of his family and friends.
Caption Time...
These 4 fascists obviously didn't get the Telegram message to not show in Brighton tonight 😀
Around 2000 anti fascists to these 4!?
Oh, I do like to be beside the seaside 😁

Like many, remembering the great Tony Benn, who of course sadly died
#OTD
10 years ago.
His backing for the Anti Nazi League against the nazi National Front mattered.
His diaries are must reads...some life.

@Searchlight_mag
Appalled to hear that Historian, broadcaster & brilliant anti fascist Louise Raw, has been suspended on here. Speaking here against the far right 3 years ago,
@TwitterSupport

#istandwithLouise
What sad news is the loss of the brilliant Robbie Coltrane.
He backed the Anti Nazi League & encouraged anti fascists to oppose the nazi BNP.
What a wonderful, funny & fine actor. May he RIP.
#OTD
in 1962, little Hitler Oswald Mosley 'kisses the pavement' in 1962 in Manchester,via anti fascists 😀
The Blackshirts march was properly stopped...we stand on the shoulders of giants.

remember Danuta Danielsson. Iconic pic of her opposing nazis in Sweden, in 1985. Her mother had been in Majdanek concentration camp. The nazi she attacked later killed a Jewish person. Danuta tragically died in 1987 but her actions will always inspire.
No surprise that fascist Tommy Robinson has been arrested at Speaker's Corner, London. His turnout was poor & the 'event' pathetic. No social distancing. Robinson currently a busted flush. Here he is getting arrested in Leeds. How many arrests now?
@AntiRacismDay
@M_Star_Online
Blimey! We put this pic up as a thanks to certain
@CelticFC
anti fascists for help on particular days & got an amazing response! So big respect, once more.
A pathetic gaggle of Tommy Robinson supporters still waiting for the ex EDL thug at Hyde Park. Open talk now of 'He isn't coming'...a far cry from Robinson two years ago. Pic via
@AntifascistRC
Well done all in Nottingham for standing up to racist & fascist thugs. A national mobilisation of the far right sees around 450, countered by around 400 mainly local anti fascist, trades union and
#BlackLivesMatter
protestors.
@uaf
@AntiRacismDay
Italy: Thousands descend on Rome for anti-fascist protest. Trade unions who organized the protest in Rome said 100,000 people had supported the anti-fascist march.
@AntiRacismDay
In case you missed this. Nazi Patriotic Alternative having to flee from anti fascists at the Tate in London.
A tonic for the troops after Knowsley.
Time to rebuild our forces against them & the likes of Suella Braverman whose rhetoric emboldens them.
Clip by

An important part of anti fascist archives are powerful pamphlets like this Anti Nazi League one on Holocaust denial. It made a difference. Very impressive people who sponsored it eg Holocaust survivors & of course
@MichaelRosenYes
We owe them all much.
@uaf
@LouiseRawAuthor
#OTD
in 1936, anti fascists went down in history for fighting the Battle of Cable St. Tens of thousands of dockers, Jews, Irish, socialists communists & many more routed Oswald Mosley's Blackshirts. A tradition that all anti fascists should be proud of. Mass united action!,
Well done anti fascists who mobilised against a small, far right splinter group today.
As in Dover, without a unifying figure like 'Tommy Robinson' to bring cohesion, on the streets, the extreme right are going nowhere.

This is who Suella Braverman emboldens when she attacks refugees: Chelsea Headhunters, pic 2, among 100 strong anti refugee mob in Thames Ditton, Surrey.

She spoke out for refugees & against the extreme right.
Love to her family & friends.
@AntiRacismDay
Remember Sophie Scholl, Hans Scholl, Christoph Probst, executed
#OTD
in 1943. They were leaders of the
#WhiteRose
resistance movement to the Nazis. They heroically distributed anti nazi leaflets & urged revolt against Hitler.
Their memories & bravery will long live on & inspire.
How far-right thugs ‘bussed in from Wales and Surrey’ hijacked Southport vigil - bussed in by who, paid for by who, organised by who..?
@Searchlight_mag
particularly is looking into this.
@AntiRacismDay
Thead -a mixed bag today, but great seeing in Bristol, Manchester, Liverpool, High Wycombe, Cardiff & Leicester, Leeds, the far right have been well opposed.
Leicester anti fascists occupied the nazis pitch for 2 hours plus, then had victory march.
300 of our side.
Mass action
Moving to see so many remember
#BlairPeach
on here & elsewhere. Disturbing that the
@metpoliceuk
officer responsible for Blair's death escaped justice & that the Met remains widely mistrusted (understandably) by so many.
Budapest, Hungary tonight.
Hundreds of fascists, organised by the 'Our Homeland' movement, protesting against the Roma community.
Solidarity from
@uaf
with the Roma and anti-fascists in Hungary.
@AntiRacismDay
Brilliant to see reformed Sikhs against the EDL, on yesterday's
@AntiRacismDay
march
They're fighting to stop 'Tommy Robinson's' attempt to divide Muslims & Sikhs.

Several of these goons in Honor Oak today were in the nazi terror gang, Combat 18 & more recently, the DFLA.
Despite threats, anti fascists again had a successful day.

#OTD
in 1977, thousands of anti fascists & locals, in Lewisham, South London, defeated a nazi National Front march! This inspiring act led to the formation of the Anti Nazi League & eventual disintegration of the Front. A key moment.
@uaf
will post more from that historic day.
About 1,500 people people are in Old Market in
#Bristol
- who have gathered to oppose rumoured anti-immigration protests.
It comes as police have been given enhanced powers ahead of any demonstrations ➡️
Home Secretary accused of 'parroting far-right myths' about British Pakistani men.
Braverman is playing with fire, knows it & is all the more contemptible for it.
