Demo at BNP festival. Pics & report.

18-08-2008 23:07

The rally in Codnor.
After many weeks of bitter sectarian backbiting the demo against the BNPs Red White and Blue festival (RWB) finally went ahead. Upon reaching the event I was greeted by local IMCer Tash who informed me that there was a clear two way split in the assembled anti fascists. “Only two?” came my reply. There has never been a single campaign so effective at dividing the left as anti fascism. I suppose if nothing else our modern day Peoples Judean Fronts should be congratulated on their consistency. In the end they did manage to stage an official march on the hate-fest while elsewhere more militant anti fascists took the cross country route…

Stay away from Denmark

18-08-2008 10:05

This is to warn of any foreign person or persons who are planning to travel to Denmark.
Don’t come. Stay away. For your own, and your family’s sake.

The Danish society is in 2008 run by a right-wing extremist government, controlled by a right out fascist party called: The Danish Peoples Partry (Dansk Folkeparti). They hate foreigners.

The general atmosphere in Denmark is bad, very bad.

Especially if you are a possible refuge that is planning to seek asylum in Denmark,
help your self: don’t do it.

Anti-fascists Prepare to Stop BNP "Festival" in Derbyshire

15-08-2008 23:27

Between 15th and 17th of August, the fascist British National Party (BNP) is holding its annual Red, White and Blue 'festival' on a farm in Denby, Derbyshire. In previous years this so-called 'family festival' has brought together BNP members and white supremacists from across the world to enjoy Nazi marching songs and drunken glassings. Local campaigners involved in Nottinghamshire Stop the BNP have been mobilising since late last year. The call has subsequently been taken up by Antifa England, Lancaster Unity, Hope Not Hate and Unite Against Fascism among others.

Hamas Blames Israeli Collaborators for Rockets

15-08-2008 01:53

Israel has a long history of infiltrating Arab organizations, and using them to commit false flag attacks, intended to provide a convenient justification for planned Israeli aggression. This seem no different, and Israel's current government represent those who rejected "Disengagement", even though it effectively turned Gaza into the world's largest Concentration Camp.

They've planned a reoccupation for years now, but the pressure of the international community, and this cease-fire stand in their way.

A conspiracy revealed and more sackings and purges to come after the BNP's EGM

14-08-2008 09:27

Here we are again, on the run-up to another Red, White and Blue disaster, with the BNP in disarray and Nick Griffin's leadership looking at its rockiest since the heady days of December 2007, when Sadie Graham and co were booted unceremoniously out of the party amid allegations of email-tampering and back-stabbing that led (eventually) to Manchester Civil Court, though not to any kind of resolution.
