“When they went out on strike in 1912, it was a terrible time. Jewish families took in hundreds of their children. They were starving. “We knew [the Irish dockers] wouldn’t forget. They wanted to repay the debt.” www.irishtimes.com/signin/?redi... #CableStreet #CableTies

"Make Whitechapel our Cable Street next Saturday

The 25 October demonstration against UKIP in East London is a crucial moment for everyone who opposes fascism argues Shabbir Lakha

On Saturday 25 October, fascists are planning to gather in Whitechapel and march through Tower Hamlets. The demonstration has been called by UKIP whose leader, Nick Tenconi, also heads up far-right Turning Point UK and was recently caught on camera performing a Nazi salute.

Tenconi and his supporters are extremely clear and open about the purpose of their march: to attack Muslims in the heart of multicultural East London. The march is billed as a 'crusade' to 'reclaim Whitechapel from the Islamists', and as part of a 'mass deportations tour'.

Tenconi has appealed to every ‘big name patriot’ to join in a ‘holy war’ against ‘Islamist occupation’. He says that any Muslim that doesn’t join him is on the side of Islamic extremism and against the British people. His calls for ‘self-defence’ and ‘all’s fair in love and war’ are barely-veiled threats of violence against Muslims in Whitechapel.

Incredibly, the Met Police have had nothing to say on this so far and are reportedly looking at route options for UKIP to march through Tower Hamlets – the current planned route going past East London Mosque. This is the same Met Police that won’t allow a Palestine demonstration to go in the vicinity of a synagogue despite there being zero evidence of any threat to Jewish people."
