Neo Nazi gathering in Cumbria (Don’t tell ’em yer name Scafell Pike!)
On Saturday, Patriotic Alternative, the latest attempt of British fascism to drag itself off the floor, held a conference in Cumbria.

Anti-fascism and Migrant Solidarity: Interview with Channel Rescue
Last week, a fire broke out at Napier Barracks in Folkestone. We still do not know the cause of the fire, several residents have been arrested and it is certainly plausible that the fire was started by some in protest at the terrible conditions in the barracks.

The Senate invasion was a gift to the State: don’t wrap it up for them
In the wake of the invasion of the US Senate it’s been mildly disappointing, if not surprising, to see some lefties joining in to call it terrorism and/or sedition.

3… 2… 1… Antifa are go
The London Anti-Fascist Assembly (LAFA) launched this year as a pan-city grassroots anti-fascist coalition made up of groups from across the left. Below, a member of far-right monitoring podcast 12 Rules For WHAT (@12rulesforwhat) considers the challenges ahead. In February more than 150 anti-fascists packed into a social centre in Dalston to discuss and plan
How to get into (or start) your own red gym
A co-founder of left-wing gym Reading Red Corner writes about her experiences and the lessons learned from running the town’s weekly radical boxing club. Red Gyms are an awesome phenomenon. I’m one of the co-founders and teachers at Reading Red Corner, and as a Pakistani woman I can honestly say the project has breathed fresh
