THE mobilisation of around 15,000 far-right supporters in London for the imprisoned Tommy Robinson has been a wake-up call for many on the left.
The intention of Saturday’s march was clear — to normalise and spread the most vitriolic anti-Muslim hatred and to build a new far-right movement based on the growth of anti-Muslim groups across Europe.
The event received international support from the far right and fascists. Geert Wilders, leader of the Dutch Party for Freedom and Belgian fascist Vlaams Belang member Filip Dewinter, who was guest speaker for a gathering of the former SS-collaborators of Sint-Maartensfonds (Belgium) in 2001, addressed the demonstration.
