EDL in Nottingham on Saturday

Demonstrate against the EDL
This SATURDAY 1st June, 10.30am at the WAR MEMORIAL, Trent Embankment The EDL have announced a 'commemorative march' to the War Memorial on the north bank of the Trent this Saturday. They are using the murder of Lee Rigby - which I'm sure we all condemn - as a pretext for spreading their racism. The Rigby family has now publicly stated that they oppose people like the EDL hijacking the murder to sow their hatred.
Last weekend the EDL threatened to demonstrate in the Market Square but didn't show. We should not let them go unchallenged if we're aware of such threats in advance. Around 100 turned out last Saturday continuing Nottingham's tradition of opposing racism and fascism. Let's make sure as many as possible assemble this weekend.
