TUC's Paul Nowak at the Together Alliance march,
"I'm going to say three things"
"First. Look around us in our wonderful diversity. Women and men, black and white, young and old. Those born in this country, those who came here to live and work"
"United against the far right, this is what solidarity looks like"
"86 years ago my grandad came to this country from Poland. Fled from fascism, authoritarianism and terror. He came to Britain to play his part in the fight against fascism"
"Then he fell in love, got a job, raised his family and lived the rest of his life in this country"
"I am proud of the contribution my migrant family made to this country. Proud to be the grandson of migrants. And proud of the millions of families like them up and down this country"
"They've made more of a contribution to this country than a politician to hire like Nigel Farage, than the tax avoider like Richard Tice, than a coked up street thug like Tommy Robinson has ever done"
"Second. We're here because we reject the politics of hate, but we also have to reject the politics of the status quo, because for far too many people in this country, politics isn't delivering even the basics"
"Too many people still in jobs they can't build a life around. Homes they can't afford. Worried about turning on the heating. About paying the shopping bill. About affording a holiday"
"The government and politicians of every stripe need to deliver the change the British public voted for in July 2024"
"That means delivering the Employment Rights Act in full. Invest in public services. And showing with every decision they're on the sides of working class people and their communities"
"And they can start by asking those with the broadest shoulders to pay a fairer share"
"If billionaires can sent their mates into space they can pay more tax"
"If bankers can award themselves record bonuses - £25 billion last year - they can pay more tax"
"If an off=shore crypto millionaire can pay Nigel Farage £12 million in dodgy donations, he can pay more tax in this country"
"Final point. We need our politicians to deliver political change but we can't afford to sit round and wait for that change to come"
"The right to vote, universal education, the welfare state, the NHS, employment rights, equality legislation, the national minimum wage"
"None of it was handed down. It didn't fall from the sky. None of it happened because someone wrote a policy report in a think tank"
"It happened because people came together and the Labour and trade union movement fought for it and we won it"
"Let's bring hope to communities and workplaces up and down this country"
"Together we can do it"
"Unity wins. Unity works. Unity is strength"
