Heard this through a text from a couple of friends, apparently there's going to be a fairly big turn out as there's going to be a Rugby match and Stereophonics band playing later on in the night.

UaF are gathering against the Demo.

It's confirmed police are expecting a big turn out.

I absolutely hate the EDL/WDL but I'm not too pro-UaF either, I want to go but not sure if I'll be with anyone I know..
any of you guys going?

The EDL/WDL are Imperialists but so are nearly all British Parties.

Why single them out as fash?

I don't recall singling them out just as just fascists?
Not to mention the Demo is against Muslims and other non-white ethnicities.

Socialist Party will be there in Cardiff and Swansea.

The WDL/EDL may be in Swansea the same day too, but details are sketchy at the moment... a bit of game playing going on.

The EDL are not just 'imperialists' they are a group that is trying to whip up hatred against muslims and provoke race riots. They have links with the BNP and regularly give nazi salutes and shout racist slogans...
... We mustn't let people like this get a strong foothold in their attempt to divide the working class.

Any chance I could get in with the Socialist Party if you're in Cardiff? Give me a PM if you've got any more details please!

The socialist party website:

You will be able to find links and apply to join through this site. I'm sure it would be possible to arrange to meet someone for a chat if you send in your details.
