TO: ALL BRANCHES
Dear Colleague
Stand Up To Racism March – London 17 November, meet at 12 noon outside the BBC, Great Portland Street, Oxford Circus.
The purpose of this LTB is to notify branches of a march in London to demonstrate against racism and fascism.
We are seeing the biggest rise in support for fascism, the far right, racism, Islamophobia and antisemitism since the 1930’s. The far right are now beginning to mobilise on a scale not seen for decades.
In order to unite against this threat Stand Up To Racism has initiated a national demonstration. The protest is supported by the TUC.
Please come and join the CWU contingent by meeting at the CWU balloons, which will be clearly visible on the day. We are sure Branches will understand that it’s important to have a big turnout from the CWU to show solidarity and determination to tackle this threat.
Social media tags for use on the day are #N17Unity #NoRacismNoFascism
Any enquiries on the contents of this LTB should be addressed to gsoffice@cwu.org.
Yours sincerely
Dave Ward
General Secretary
