Unite Against Fascism
The
National Assembly Against Racism is one of the founding organisations of Unite
Against Fascism - a new national campaign with the aim of alerting British
society to the rising threat of the extreme right gaining an electoral foothold
in this country, in particular the British National Party (BNP).
UAF aims to unite the broadest possible spectrum of society to counter this
threat.
Until recently this country has not seen the kind of rise of the extreme right
that has blighted many countries elsewhere in Europe. However in the recent
local elections the BNP averaged 17 per cent in the wards they contested,
and averaged 20% in by-elections they have contested since then.
Given the variety of electoral systems in place for different elections, on
its current levels of support there is a real danger that the BNP could get
a significant platform in elected institutions.
The BNP can be defeated. The majority of people in this country abhor the
BNP. If every-one votes we can stop the BNP. The UAF campaign will urge people
to use their vote to stop the BNP.
