The Home Secretary has just announced that the anti-Islam march in Luton will not be taking place. In fact, as a precautionary measure, all marches have been banned in the town for the next three months. This is a massive victory for everyone who joined our protest yesterday. Over 14,000 letters were sent urging a ban and our voices have been heard.
Thanks to everyone who sent off a letter. We have won and Luton is a safer place because of it. This is just further proof of what we can achieve when we get organised.http://www.hopenothate.org.uk/blog/article:496-We-won!
People laughed when we said asking the state to act on these issues was a bad idea, when we said what you get them to dish out to the right today will be turned on the left tomorrow and what happened? Not only have HNH used and justified state power but they have stopped anyone, left, right, whatever, from marching. This is not a victory for anti-fascism, this is a victory for anti-protestism.
