Fight is taken to the BNP in Sunderland
Saturday
On Saturday 14th March the BNP were out in force (all 6 of them!) in Sunderland at the Stadium of Light leafleting the Sunderland Vs Wigan match with leaflets for their euro election campaign.
Thousands of safc supporters walking to the match took the anti-fascist leaflets being given out in the thousands. Many supporters who had taken a BNP leaflet ripped them up in disgust and the road was littered with BNP leaflets shredded to pieces.
Supporters were glad to see anti-fascists taking the BNP on for the first time for years, many left their contact details for more info about the campaign.
Monday
Monday was the day the BNP were bringing their 'truth truck' to Sunderland to kick start their euro election campaign in style. 30 Anti-fascists gathered in the city centre and gave out over 1500 leaflets. The activists then march onto the area where the BNP were due to assemble but they were no where to be seen...
