    BACKGROUND: 2011 was a mixed year for anti-fascists. The upside was the continuing decline of the BNP and the defeat of the EDL in their attempt to march through London’s East End. The downside included Cameron joining in the attack on multi-culturalism, Osborne’s promise of seven years of misery which will provide a breeding ground for fascism and then the link up between the EDL and the so-called British Freedom Party to attempt to provide a new face for British fascism – this time with well-funded, international anti-Muslim backing.

    In 2012 we will have to face these challenges – come to our February conference to help discuss how we are going to do this.
