anti fascist | 25.11.2007 13:22

Oxford Student Union voted to allow holocaust denier David Irving and BNP leader Nick Griffen to talk at the Union, despite protests last week. Get down to support Oxford anti fascists if you can, don't let them speak without opposition!

here is a call out from Oxford Indymedia:

CALLING ALL ANTI FASCISTS!!!

On Monday the 26th of November, BNP leader Nick Griffin and proffesional holocaust denier (and discredited historian) David Irving will be giving a talk in Oxford.
There will be a demo outside the Oxford Union (see their website for directions) starting at 7pm.
Last week, Carlo, a young anti-fascist was killed in action by a nazi in Madrid. Solidarity demos have been taking place all over Europe. Lets remember him by getting down to Oxford and forming a strong and militant anti-fascist presence to let these murdering nazi bastrads know how we feel about Carlos death!
See you there.

NO PASSARAN!

and here is the text from todays Observer article:
See the Observer article here:

in another article it details how a anti fascist student has been threatened:
"The university's newspaper, Cherwell, has quoted Duncan Money, a second-year student, as saying he received death threats after criticising fascist groups in an internet blog.
He said: "My family has been threatened, my friends have been threatened and I've been threatened. Someone rang in the middle of the night and said they would cut my throat.""
