THOUSANDS are expected to take part in the biggest anti-racist march in a generation for the Together Alliance demonstration in central London on Saturday.

Protesters will be joined by musicians, actors, authors, politicians, trade unions and campaigners as they march from Park Lane to Whitehall, and speakers will include MPs Hannah Spencer, Zarah Sultana, Jeremy Corbyn and Richard Burgon.

PCS general secretary Fran Heathcote, who will also speak at the rally, said her union is “proud to stand with Together Alliance to push back against the growing tide of division and misinformation being spread in our communities.”

She told the Star: “The far right thrives on fear and scapegoating, but blaming migrants doesn’t fix broken services or struggling communities, it only deepens the damage.

“Our members see the reality every day: public services are under strain because of years of cuts, low pay and understaffing, not because of the people who rely on them.

“We will not stand by while communities are deliberately divided and working people are set against each other.”

Ms Heathcote said her union is marching because “we want something better — a society built on truth, fairness, unity and respect, not the politics of hate.”

General Federation of Trade Unions general secretary Gawain Little said: “For too long, the far right have preyed on economic insecurity to spread hatred, blaming migrants for the problems in our economy and shifting attention from bad bosses, dodgy landlords and self-serving politicians.

“The Together Alliance is challenging that by calling for a fairer and more equal society, built on unity and solidarity, not hate and division.”

The Alliance is made up of hundreds of organisations and groups, including Keep Our NHS Public, whose head of campaigns, Tom Griffiths, said: “We stand by the NHS’s founding principles: high-quality, free healthcare for all, rooted in compassion and respect for patients and staff alike.

“We oppose migrant charges because they undermine these values and make communities less safe.

“We also reject the government’s new immigration policies which are a cynical attempt to mimic the divisive politics of Reform.

“They risk placing unnecessary strain on the NHS while insulting the many non-UK nationals who sustain it.”

Mr Griffiths said these workers are “essential to its survival, and policies that target them threaten the very system that remains worth defending and rebuilding for future generations.”

Peace & Justice Project spokesman Samuel Sweek said: “The far-right is mobilising and seeking to spread their hateful rhetoric.

“The weakling Labour government are pandering to the likes of [Reform leader Nigel] Farage and Tommy Robinson at the expense of refugees and sick and disabled people, who are being continuously scapegoated by our failing political establishment.

“We must build a united response in our communities and a new kind of politics that brings people together, inspires hope and resets the balance of power in this country into the hands of all of us.”

He said that while the “far-right and their mates in the media want us to divided, they want us to be afraid,” the people “must prove that we are not — and that we are totally united in our aim of bringing about peace and social justice.”

The Communist Party of Britain said the march is “a step towards building a united front against racism and the far right in Britain.”

It said: “As in the 1930s, workers are uniting to defend our communities and workplaces from far-right forces who try to divide us, and scapegoat migrants for the failures of capitalism.

“In 1936, communists organised to block fascists marching against Jewish communities in the East End.

“In 2026, we say ‘They did not pass. They shall not pass.’”
