Today is the 88th anniversary of the Battle of Cable Street, when thousands of East-Londoners stood alongside Jewish and Irish communities to drive out Oswald Mosley and his fascists. Never forget: working-class unity can defeat the far right for good.

Defendant’s claim that he just came upon the protest & had no prior intention of getting involved isn’t credible but also draws from the irrationalist myth that people get caught up in crowds without knowing what they’re doing. This doesn’t happen bbc.com/news/articles/…
