From NW London Counterfire
In September London saw the largest far right demonstration in the UK that attracted around 150 thousand people. This was organised by Stephen Yaxley-Lennon - aka Tommy Robinson - along with a core of hardline fascists. Violent right-wing protests against the use of dilapidated hotels and barracks to house refugees and asylum seekers have continued since. Islamophobic and racist attacks are increasing.
The right have been emboldened by Starmer and Home Secretary Shabana Mahmoud attempting to chase the tails of Reform as more draconian entry requirements are imposed that will have a major impact on all migrant communities no matter how long they have been in the UK.
Chris Bambery, author, historian and committed activist, will lead the discussion on how we can organise effective strategies to combat the right.

The mistake is labelling Farage “far right” as that will entrench the position of people who are essentially populists. This is important because the deputy leader of the green party, Rachel Millward has expressed the same concerns about migration. She signed a letter saying she was concerned about safety of locals in the community from a migrant hotel. Are we really going to say the green party is also far right? Or might we need to tackle what tony blair would describe as the ‘absurd’ which the ordinary, liberal, accepting and calm british public can no longer tolerate
