North East

Friends,

A huge thank you to everyone who turned up to protest and leaflet against the BNP in Sunderland this afternoon. Over 1500 leaflets were given out in under an hour and the 30 or so anti-fascists then marched to St. Thomas Street to find the BNP had pulled their visit! The remaining leaflets were given out before an informal street meeting in which the group agreed to formally launch a Sunderland UAF group with a launch meeting in the City Centre in the coming weeks.

Nick Griffin is still supposed to be speaking on Tyneside tonight but we are unaware of where this will be, if anyone hears of anything please do let us know asap.

We will confirm the detaiils of the Sunderland UAF launch meeting as soon as the venue and time is confirmed

In solidarity,

UAF North East
