Samira Ali, the national organiser for Stand Up to Racism which is behind many of the counter-protests, said the growing โconfidenceโ of the far-right cannot be โleft to fester, or go unopposedโ.
โWeโre fighting as hard as possible to get as many people in a coalition around the country to make sure that these protests are opposed,โ she said.
โWhat demoralises [far-right protesters] on the day is people standing together as a broad mass movement and fighting back. The far-right might think theyโre part of something bigger, but we know that we are in fact the majority, and weโre trying to mobilise that this weekend.โ
