www.fashwatch.org.uk is up and running. The aim of the site is to allow members of the community the opportunity to report any BNP activity in their area. The collection of information has always been a central strategy in fighting fascism and building an information base about recent fascist activities allows for a quicker and more direct response.
FashWatch came about a result of people in local communities becoming frustrated with the lack of opposition to BNP. The information sent to the web site is past directly to regional anti-fascist groups. Fashwatch exists purely as a resource to put people concerned with the activities of groups such as the BNP in touch with groups such as Antifa, who are a separate group dedicated to preventing fascist groups from organising. These groups will then take affirmative action to prevent fascists organising in their areas.
Everyone is encouraged to show the BNP and other fascist groups that they are not welcome in their communities and their hateful rhetoric will not be tolerated. This can be done by reporting any information to the web site as well as requesting stickers which will be sent out for free. The response so far has been overwhelming and this clearly illustrates the need for such a resource.
Put the stickers up in your area – let the BNP know they are the ones being targeted!
