Le Pen, Facist Is Smashed

French fascist Jean Marie Le Pen was invited to speak at the Cambridge by the Cambridge union debating society. As mass mobilisation took place under the slogan of ‘no platform for Nazis’. At least 100 people attended the demonstration that was organised within 38 hours.
Le Pen was given a proper welcome by anti fascists as he entered the building and had his windscreen cracked.
The Anti Nazis stayed outside the union building while Le Pen was inside keeping up endless chants against the Nazis who deny the holocaust and feed racial hatred. The left was truly untied with even labour MP Anne Campbell coming to lend her supports to the Anti Nazi league.
The demonstration was amazing considering that there was so little time to gain support. It also proved why we oppose the Nazis from speaking wherever they come. BNP thugs were present as Le Pen left the building and got into a car that the Fascists had marked as a taxi. They kicked and punched the people protesting against this nazi, and several were hurt. The BNP wants to be part of mainstream politics but they back up their campaign with carefully aimed kicks and punches.
We need to bring Anti-Nazi movement forward so that we can oppose the Nazis wherever they speak, and stop them from gaining credibility, and wining elections.
