Stop the racist EDL in Bolton this Saturday!

 Love Music Hate Racism is supporting our sister campaign UAF‘s counter demonstration against the racist EDL in Bolton. 

Assemble: 11am, Victoria Square, Bolton.

On the day we’ll be providing music and speeches to the crowds of anti-fascist supporters, come and join us. We need a united message on Saturday that racist and fascist groups like the EDL and the BNP “shall not pass” into our town centres. 

The picture shows an earlier demonstration against the EDL in Manchester. 

Unite Against Fascism and LMHR supporters up and down the country have organised coaches to get protesters to Bolton at 11am on Saturday 20 March to join the demo against the EDL. Here’s a list of coaches booked so far.

    Stop the EDL, the thugs from hell!

    Stand firm and do everything you can to stop them.

    It is down to us now, the state is too stupid and wrapped up its own arse (constitution this and that rubbish) to put a stop to this outrage called the EDL.

    The state doesn’t know the difference between good and evil.

    So be brave, stand firm and know how important and good this stand against the nazi BNP boot boys AKA the EDL is.

    All Power to the good people of the world, defend Bolton from the rot of the EDL.
