In the wake of the election of the fascist British National Party’s Richard Barnbrook to the Greater London Assembly (GLA), and of other new BNP councillors in other parts of the country, we will show once again that anti-fascists are the majority. The Love Music Hate Racism (LMHR) Carnival at the end of April showed the mass multicultural audience opposed to racism and fascism and now is the time for the Carnival to hit the streets. Barnbrook must not be allowed to settle comfortably into his ill-gotten office, but must be resisted at every turn. Together we can stop the BNP from turning their GLA win into a respectable platform for spreading racist poison in London and across the country.
LMHR, trade unions, and other anti-fascist and anti-racist campaigns, are calling a national demonstration and carnival parade against fascism and racism which will celebrate the diversity of our society and make it clear that racism and fascist organisations like the BNP will not be tolerated. There will be a march and carnival parade, with floats, marching bands, speakers and banners from every organisation opposed the BNP’s racist hate.
Coaches to the protest are being booked from around the country. If you’re coming from outside London see below for your nearest coach - and let us know of any other coaches planned.
