HOPE NOT HATE – BRADFORD DAY OF ACTION TO STOP THE BNP

Bradford TUC | 21.04.2004 14:21 | Anti-racism

Saturday 24th April is the key date in the campaign to stop the British National Party (BNP) in June 2004's elections. Hundreds of activists will be out across Bradford, Shipley and Keighley delivering a hard-hitting tabloid newspaper exposing the true face of the BNP. Please come along to support this day, bringing friends and work colleagues. Meet at Bradford Resource Centre, 17-21 Chapel Street, Little Germany at 10.30am

The Bradford area is once again a key BNP target in the 2004 elections. However, strong campaigning last year kept them at bay, despite their successes in other areas, and the aim is to see the fascists shut out once again in June.

Your support can make a big difference. Please build for Saturday 24th in your community, campaign groups, workplaces, trade unions, etc.

You can't stop the fash with soppy leadflets and the odd march ffs! Why don't the TUC stop supporting the Labour Party which is doing so much to alienate working-class people? Give your time and money to worthy organisations like the iwca.

If the public knew that the IWCA was a front for Red Action, itself an IRA front, do you think they'd flock to it? Would they fuck. Perhaps that's why it's all been kept hush-hush by them. And why give any money to IWCA? 'Cause they talk a good fight, but don't deliver?

The hope not hate campaign shits all over respect, the ANL, UAF etc, and is more than just stickers and leaflets. It's getting people on the door step, it's getting and encouraging all the parties to make themselves heard. A recent survey suggested that the BNP voter is also the most likely to be swayed away if they actually saw the major parties campaigning.

The IWCA currently has a councillor in the trendy north London suburb of Islington, and one in the enormous metropolis of Oxford.

You can take Red Action out of the SWP, bit not the Trot out of Red Action. Wankers

IWCA? My arse!
