National demo Walthamstow 27 October

There was a great feeling of solidarity on 1 September as the unity demonstration marched through the borough.

Unite Against Fascism (UAF) is calling a national demonstration in Walthamstow on 27 October in response to plans by the racist thugs of the English Defence League (EDL) to return to the London borough.
On 1 September 2012 the EDL attempted to stage a provocative march through Walthamstow, but only managed to mobilise 200 of its hard-core supporters.

In a magnificent display of unity over 4,000 people of every religion, race, age, sexuality and gender staged a unity demonstration that prevented the EDL rally.

Now the EDL’s leaders want to stage another demonstration and have said they will screen an incendiary anti-Muslim film at the rally.

Waltham Forest council announced that if the EDL march is not banned it will “call on our whole community to come out.”

UAF and ‘We Are Waltham Forest’ are calling for a huge show of unity from across the country.
Transport details will be available soon.
