Croydon All Out to Stop the Fascists!

Sat 6th May, 2017 @ 10:00

All OUT to Stop the Fascist South East Alliance demonstrating on 6th May in Croydon.

SHUT DOWN the Racist, Fascist South East Alliance!

SHUT DOWN Croydon until the Fascists are driven off our streets and out of our community.

A group of organised Fascist thugs, the South-East Alliance, is planning to demonstrate in Croydon on Saturday 6th May, outside Lunar House, the Home Office reporting centre. This will be just a month from the violent attack by a 20 to 30-strong racist gang in Croydon, in which 17-year old Kurdish asylum seeker Reker Ahmed was savagely beaten and two of his Kurdish refugee friend were injured.

There is only one message to take from the Fascists’ plan to demonstrate in Croydon only a month after the attempted murder of Reker Ahmed; they are celebrating the attack, claiming political responsibility for it, and they want to encourage and carry out more brutal racist attacks on our streets. They want to spread fear in immigrant, refugee and Muslim communities, scare black, Asian. Muslim & immigrant communities from coming into central Croydon that day. They are seeking to build on the racism and anti Immigrant bigotry of Brexit and build a racist/fascist street movement.

They have advertised their demonstration as an ‘anti immigration demo’ stating that “The UK is Not a Dumping Ground for the third world! You Are Not Welcome Here” & “Defend your heritage”. This is an explicit threat – their presence poses a very direct threat of further physical attacks, we must defend ourselves and our community.

There is only one response. The community must come out in force, fill the streets that day, Shut Them Down. End their attempt to embolden and encourage racist attacks on our streets.

(more info and exact times will be posted closer to the day, but prepare to be out on the streets early and for as long as it takes)
