Mobilise Now to Oppose the EDL in Tower Hamlets!

The English Defence League (EDL) has stated its intention to march through the East End. Its website says, 
provocatively, “TowerHamlets — We’re Coming”. Tower Hamlets has a proud history of challenging prejudice and promoting equality. We oppose discrimination of all kinds.
We have worked and campaigned together for many years to build a successful, multi-cultural place where many different communities and lifestyles live peacefully side by side.
No amount of EDL propaganda or provocation will take that away from us. We will not accept attempts to create fear and instability in our community. The EDL is a violent, bigoted organisation and an embarrassment to our country. They should be condemned everywhere.
The EDL are not welcome here. There is No Place For Hate in Tower Hamlets.
We call upon all local people, political parties, trade unions, cultural, youth, faith and community organisations to work together to unite our borough and defy the EDL’s attempts to divide us and stir up hatred. Seventy five years ago, the people of the East End united to block the way to Mosley’s fascist blackshirts at Cable Street. We stand ready to do the same to the EDL. Sign the petition and join the National
Demonstration, Tower Hamlets, Saturday 3 September. Assemble 11am Weavers Field, London E2 6HW.
