Anti-BNP demo tomorrow!

[BurnTheOliveTree]

BBC studios, White City, London. All day, Love Music Hate Racism gig afterwards. Come out and show these fuckers they can't come to the capital unopposed, and show your support for migrant communities and everyone threatened by the BBC's decision to give a fascist a platform. :) Do it.

It doesn't look like there will be any strike activity.

[Dr Mindbender]

Cyclops is in the building.

[Stranger Than Paradise]

This really should not have happened. The publicity that he has generated is just quite ridiculous, everyone seems to be talking about his appearance.

[Hit The North]

Yeah, well done, BBC. You couldn't buy this much publicity. Makes you wonder if the Corporation is still run by top-hatted fascists.

Demo was good. We didn't stop him getting in but we did all we could. Pretty radical. Alot of fighting the police. Antifa were a disgrace.

[Hit The North]

Why?

[Rory]

Stood behind everyone else throwing projectiles and batoning our own comrades from behind. I had to chase one out of the crowd.

[Hit The North]

That's fucked up.

[Partizani]

We got our message across, my face was on BBC News quite planely as i was being dragged out of the BBC building. So i can expect to be on that pathetic site redwatch by todays end.

Griffin got owned on question time even though we didn't stop it, we made our voices heard.

Not really. All they did was add to the public hysteria of asylum seekers = bad and didnt challenge the fundamental fallacies of the BNP.

It was a negative day for class conciousness imo.

And i bet you really believe it is.

And, actually, the reason why this event was so hyped up and thus the reason why Griffin got so much free advertisement, was partly the result of the irrational hysteria that the pro-censorship lobby tried to create.

How did you work that out?

[Partizani]

There were only a few AntiFA activists around, i was with the guy with the Black AntiFA flag for most of the time and he was quite timid in his actions, a few autonomist anarchists linked up with us when they were planning a second storming but i wouldn't say they are too linked to AntiFA. But i do agree with what they were shouting, UAF shouting smash the bnp but yelling smash them isnt going to smash them, we need to physically confront them.

Can Antifa really be called a coherent group, isn't it more a tactic or a label people attach to certain actions?

Genuine question by the way.

In the UK there's Antifa England which is a network of militant antifascists which could be described as a coherent group with a founding statement but antifa is generally used as name for the tactic deployed on this forum, which is confusing at times.

No, there are not physical requirements. The group only requires that you are a genuine, dedicated anti-fascist who agrees with all the principles set out on the website. Get in contact via the emails on the website if your interested: www.antifa.org.uk (http://www.antifa.org.uk).
