In Pictures: On The Anti-EDL And Anti-BNP March In Whitechapel

IN Whitechapel, East London, the anti-fascists are marching against the BNP and the English Defence League. Voices must be heard. Some marchers are brawling with the police. Less good. At the front of the march is the banner declaring: “TOWER HAMLETS – ONE COMMUNITY MANY CULTURES.” For sure. Whitechapel is in multi-cultural Tower Hamlets. A sense of unity is a noble aim. Tower Hamlets is home to the East London mosque. It’s a fine venue of spirituality. But there are some speakers not all that keen on one community. Do the anti-fascits march on the them next?
