No Pasaran
I

Pasaran’ memorial march. Assemble
1pm Junction of Cable Street, Leman Street and Dock Street. Marching
to the Cable Street Mural/St George’s Gardens.
Speakers
include: Apsana Begum MP, Jeremy Corbyn MP (Project for Peace and
Justice), Rabbi Herschel Gluck, Mick Lynch Gen Sec RMT, Amina Patel
(Unison), Abdul Chowdhury (NEU), Noorahmed Uddin (Altab Ali
Foundation) Joginder Bains (Indian Workers Association-GB) Julia Bard

Margaret
Hodge’s “Fucking antisemite and racist” Jeremy Corbyn will be
speaking alongside rabbis, the Bengali and Indian communities, Stand Up to Racism and
members from the Jewish Socialists and Jewish Voice for Labour. Their
co-chair Leah Levane, was recently thrown out of the Labour Party
conference. We will be remembering those who stopped fascism all
those years ago and reminding ourselves that the struggle continues.
I don’t think Hodge or Starmer will join us.
