‘We will put you in the dustbin of history,’ anti-racists tell Tommy Robinson's goons
People join civil society groups led by Stand Up To Racism during a counter-protest against a far-right rally endorsed by Tommy Robinson in central London, October 26, 2024
TWENTY THOUSAND anti-racists marched through London at the weekend in defiance of a hate march summoned to the capital by fascist thug Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, known as Tommy Robinson.
The demo, called by Stand Up to Racism and backed by the TUC, trade unions and peace and faith groups, pledged to defend refugees and communities under attack — with Muslims the most prominent target of today’s far right.
Organisers warned, however, that Robinson’s supporters still likely outnumbered the anti-fascists on Saturday, with Stand Up to Racism estimating the far-right march attracted 20-25,000 people.
