Stop the Nazis taking control of Barking!
Mass leafletting of Barking ,where Nick Griffin is standing.There is a genuine risk of the BNP taking control of the council as well.
This would give the Nazis a real boost nationally.
We have transport going up.
We have cars going up from 9.00am.
If you want to get involved contact :portsmouthuaf@gmail.com
Telephone Simon Magorian: 07528839223
There will be other leafletting throughout the week and possibly we will be at the May Fair at St.Mary's church.
Please get in touch!

Barry Bennett and his Nazi leanings ,the story continues...
Portsmouth News published a helpful piece this week by Sion Donovan ,which will assist the electors of Gosport make an informed choice about whether to vote for the Nazi Barry Bennett.Most of the stuff in it will be familiar to readers of this blog.
Strangely some more digging was recently done by the people from Searchlight magazine.
"Bennett was, until recently, a regular user of the American-based nazi Stormfront website, despite being half Jewish, “from ancestry not religion” he is keen to stress. “I believe in National Socialism, WW2 style, it was best, no other power had anything like it,” ‘he wrote. “The ideology was fantastic. The culture, nothing like it. If it was here now, I’d defect to Germany.”
Perhaps the BNP should be renamed The Luftwaffe Solidarity Campaign .
What's not to love.

Southsea Against the Nazis.
Assemble Mountbatten Fountain.
1.30 P.M.
17th April
Commercial Road Southsea.
Street meeting and leafletting.
Geoffrey Crompton is the proposed Nazi candidate for Portsmouth south.He might sound like a character out of a P G Wodehouse novel but he's representing a hate filled Nazi organisation.We need to get the word out and make it clear to the Nazi BNP that public spaces in our city are Anti -Nazi zones.
Last saturday we had a magnificent afternoon of leafletting against Barry Bennett the BNP candidate in Gosport.Between 35-40 people were involved in the afternoons action and we had a magnificent response.
The BNP seem to be loath to get out on the stump thus far.Unfortunately this is unlikely to last.It is therefore imperative we create a political culture that is as hostile to their propaganda as possible.
Please get out and support us in keeping Portsmouth Nazi Free!
Further details.

GOSPORT AGAINST THE NAZIS
Now the election is finally upon us we are about to embark on a series of street meetings and leafleting events.
The BNP has stated that it will be standing candidates in Portsmouth South (Geoffrey Crompton) and Gosport (Barry Bennett).
To kick off our campaign we will be holding a street meeting /leafleting session in Gosport.
The Portsmouth contingent will be meeting by the ferry terminal at the hard at 11.30 am.
10th April.
Please spread the word and bring yourselves, friends and workmates to this event. If you have any Union/community banners, placards etc please bring them along.
Please contact local political parties ,faith groups and community organisations you think might be supportive.
Jon Neil and Gareth Edwards have produced an excellent leaflet for us to distribute.
The idea is we will start the event at about midday and carry on for a couple of hours .The nature of the event will be dependent on how many people turn up.
If it’s a big turnout we will hold a street meeting if it’s smaller we’ll just leaflet –depending on what people want to do on the day.
If anybody has any stuff left over from the rally please bring it along. I am missing a huge pile of stickers, if you have them please bring them.
I hope to see you there!
Best wishes

Sabby Dhalu, Unite Against Fascism
Love Music Hate Racism representative
Unite Against Fascism, together with other local community groups in Dudley, will be taking part in an event to celebrate Dudley's multi-faith, multi-racial and multicultural society this Saturday.
This is a peaceful event which brings together anti-fascists, interfaith communities, local politicians and young people celebrating the diversity of British society. It has targeted the Muslim community and Mosques in order to whip up hatred, division and violence where it has been allowed to march.
In Bolton a man was stabbed in a pub by an attacker wearing an EDL jacket in the evening following their demonstration two weeks ago. In Stoke violence and disorder ensued after their demonstration; the local Asian community and Police were attacked.
EDL supporters have paraded their violence on youtube. The EDL are made up of football hooligan groups and fascists who have been caught on camera giving Nazi salutes following their demonstrations.
Clare Short MP for Ladywell Birmingham said:
“We must all stand firmly together against those who want to spread hatred and division. Hate and prejudice is always ugly and wrong. And it never solves any of the problems that need attention.
In Germany, similar groups to the English Defence League started off spreading hatred against Jews. And then their hatred spread to disabled people, trade unionists, communists, gay people and gypsies. All were sent to concentration camps and millions were systematically eliminated. And the politics of hatred also spread to war, which engulfed the world, killed 25 million people, and left massive destruction across Europe and beyond. Today similar forces are working to spread hatred against Muslims. They are trying to incite hatred, division and war. We must stand together against this evil. There are many problems in Britain and the world. Together we can work to solve them. Divided we all will suffer”

Celebrate Multiculturalism!No to the EDL in Dudley!
STOP THE RACIST EDL THUGS!
DEMONSTRATION SATURDAY 3rd APRIL
The English defence League (EDL) - a group of racist thugs and
football hooligans with links to the Nazi BNP - will be marching on
Dudley on Saturday 3 April to whip up race hatred against Muslims.
These thugs spread fear and terror when they rampaged through Luton
and Stoke recently. They smashed cars, attacked shops and assaulted
Asians. When some locals tried to stop them they were called 'race
traitors' and attacked.
Don't believe the EDL's lies when it claims to be a 'peaceful' group
opposed to 'Muslim extremism'. They are nothing of the sort. The EDL
are a group of violent bigots that want to intimidate and attack all
ethnic minorities. During their recent march in Bolton they chanted
anti-Asian and anti-Semitic slogans.
They should not be allowed to march in Dudley. Join with Unite Against
Fascism to celebrate our multicultural society. Lets show the EDL they
are not welcome.
This is going to be an important peaceful multicultural event.
Defence of freedom of religion is a central plank of any democratic society.
It is imperative that we put a marker down on the third of April in Dudley.
Coach leaves
Fratton Bridge 7.00am
Cosham 7.15am
Southampton Cenotaph 7.45
Tickets are £15 waged (minimum donation) and £10 concessions (minimum
donation)
Prepared to negotiate for Under 18s.
To reserve a place please call Jake 07854982366 or Simon 07528839223
