BRITAIN NEEDS A BROAD
ANTI FASCIST ALLIANCE
NOT NAZIS IN EUROPE


Dear friends,

It is with horror and alarm that we note the emergence of the far right in Britain. Looking at the BNP website it is clear they are highly organised and making inroads to those who have been hit hard by poverty and the failure of New Labour and the Tories to do anything, besides playing the race card of the old ‘immigrants over here taking our jobs.’ We’ve heard the lies before and I remember the days of the formation of the ANTI NAZI LEAGUE and ROCK against racism.

The recent purge of one hundred Romanian from their homes in Belfast may be only the tip of the iceberg what we may soon see developing unless we do something about it.

Worst still is that the racist, anti Semite and homophobe Nick Griffin and Mr Brons of the BNP now represent their fascist interests, in the European Parliament, on behalf of British people.

This throws up a few questions for debate;

1) How did the far right become so strong?
2) What can be done to counter the threat they pose?
3) What can you do about it?

Here are a few suggestions, answers and a possible road map forward.

They became strong because successive New Labour and Tory, I consider them both right wing parties, played the race card and created scapegoats to conceal and take away the blame for the failure of the Capitalist system to provide jobs and hope.

Like the early seventies and eighties- movements like the Anti Nazi League and Rock against Racism –Anti Fascist in sentiment and action-must be created; a broad alliance, taking in all groups opposed the BNP should be formed.

Nick Griffin and his followers feed on the ignorance and fear of the masses yet he and his party does pose a real threat unless it is challenged on a broad level.


NON-PASARAN

THEY SHALL NOT PASS
