Worth saying that Brigitte Bardot was fined 6 times over race hate remarks and backed far right Marine Le Pen in 2012 and 2017 elections. "Facts are stubborn things". @Searchlight_mag

Big well done to antiracists in Margate yesterday, opposing the far right - who once again promoted their event under the banner of ‘Christian nationalism’. Over 200 antiracists mobilised. #RefugeesAreNotToBlame

The great Leon Greenman was born #OTD in 1910. He survived the Holocaust, but his wife & baby son were murdered in Auschwitz. Leon campaigned magnificently with the Anti Nazi League & others. His inspiration lives on. @PeterHain @HolborowPaul @AntiRacismDay @Searchlight_mag

Andrea Egan told @socialistworker “We public sector workers are on the frontlines of chronic underfunding, low pay, and outsourcing. We bear the brunt of it all. Unison’s central task is to change that reality—our reality.” https://t.co/CAm4eVsogM
