Notts Stop the BNP: Public Meeting

Notts Stop the BNP | 13.06.2008 15:43 | Stop the BNP's Red White and Blue festival | Anti-racism | Social Struggles

Nottinghamshire Stop the BNP are holding a public meeting on Tuesday June 17, at the International Community Centre, 61b Mansfield Road (map) at 7.30pm.

BNP not welcome here!
BNP not welcome here!


On Tuesday June 10, Amber Valley Borough Council met to consider the licence application for the BNP's Red White and Blue "festival", planned to be held in Denby, Derbyshire August 15-17.

Concerned about the mobilisation against this event and fearing confrontation between the two sides, Derbyshire Police reversed their original position and decided to oppose the licence unless a number of stringent conditions (including the erection of a seven foot-high fence around the site and the installation of security lighting) were imposed.

In the face of this, the BNP withdrew their licence application and stormed out of the meeting, at which point the licensing panel adjourned. This is not the end of the matter, however. The BNP are still telling everyone and anyone who’ll listen that they’re going ahead with the event. They might try reapplying for a licence or just carry on regardless. Either way there’s a clear need to continue building the campaign against the festival.

To this end, Notts Stop the BNP are holding a public meeting to discuss what can be done to stop the festival and the BNP. Speakers will include an anti-BNP activist from Huddersfield attacked and seriously injured by racist thugs as well as an activist from the campaign against the Red White and Blue festival.

All anti-fascist welcome.

Zionists extremists not welcome either! Stop the zionist festival in London!

Fascism and zionism are very similar both used racist oppression. Israel was founded by the racist expulsion and massacres of 700,000 Palestinian arabs in 1948. In central London on Sunday June 29th thousands of zionists plan to hold a huge festival in Trafalgar Square from 2pm. See this :  http://www.salutetoisrael.org We must be there to stop them and to say - No more house demolitions, no more theft of Palestinian land, no more aparthied wall, end the seige of Gaza and no Israeli attack on Iran.

Stop the RWB - the easy way

You lot had the right idea when you blocked the Kimberly meeting. You linked arms and made a physical blockade without violence except a few coppers helmets being knocked off. This meant that BNP security couldn’t give you a slap without getting themselves arrested because ‘self-defence’ won’t wash then, but you still fucked it all up.

If you employ the same tactic at this yeas RWB (Ridiculous, Whitewash and Bullshit) you will also be able to ruin it.
Saturday is the main day so you’ll want to make sure you are there to link-up early swapping people around during the day as they get tired. Don’t start until the police are firmed-up otherwise bnp security will be ready to get stuck in, trust me because last year I watched them in their tent talking about wanting to do it and there was plenty of them but they can do nothing with police evidence units waiting there.

Forget the other entrance onto the site because that can’t be used for vehicles anyway. Without their cars and caravans their fucked. Have a video camera ready to record any attacks on you, if they see you are organised Gri££in will blow his top, and Reynolds simply hasn’t the experience to know what the hell to do.

At night use a few thunderflashes etc because they are quite cheap and a very effective and you don’t need a lot of people. Keep them guessing. Use your brains!

worth investing in lasers to keep them guessing at night. There will cameras all over the place to record any attacks though by the bully boys.
As well as lots of reflector mirror sun groups in the field will help. Theses groups need to have at least 20-30people in them with firm walking sticks & comms kit.
VE weekend, in woolaton park, free event next wknd.Starts about 12noon I think. Remember many soldiers there dont follow crap orders,older ones are "babysitters"& many are in training to help us keep the peace.
Any groups nr gate should be 100+& not rely on police defence.
Dress smart, wear your red poppies with pride.
Personally I will buy a keg of beer if we reclaim any British flags they have at the entrance with non compromising evidence.dont worry I will be about & notice.
They are most likely to bring children to the gate as media-cannon fodder, watch out they are making serious slander already, coming from Hitler worshippers like Darby & Griffin this is beyond hypocrisy.

will only pay if flag can be got dicreetly, without violence unless they attack

15.06.2008 15:03

Some stink bombs would be good too, be v.aware they may try & harm their own children & fake it as us doing it. Any bnp members reading this need to realise your leaders would, Hitler youth should be proud to die for their fuhrer.If you hide behind your kids at front or try & attack us you will regret it!
In fact we should try to get on the site, thats just excuse they want, Iam sorry I take back the keg unless the flag can be done discreetly without violence unless they attack as they are trying to accuse of trying to attack their kids.
