Choose better friends and supporters if you want to get broader support

Although I support the idea of drawing attention to the situation in Palestine I do not support this group at Wembley who allowed (and in some cases supported) working with Far Right groups at this demonstration.
Allowing former members of the NL and BNP to stand shoulder to shoulder with you was a massive error and to give them permission to hand out their documentation alongside yours was in simple words disgusting.
Alingning your protest with groups who objected to the Israeli team because they don't want to see Jews playing football in England is wrong and a strategic mistake in tactics. You should be rejecting racism in all its forms not just being selective. The protests that used to happen outside of Marks and Spencers in London disbanded because the Far Right were allowed to join in which alienated many previous supporters. I came to Wembley to support your protest but along with two others left when we saw who else was standing there.
