It was a carnival atmosphere in London on Saturday as comrades joined tens of thousands of other demonstrators marching through the heart of the capital against racism and Zionism last weekend. Your Party leaders Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana were there along with Zack Polanski from the Greens, Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham and Diane Abbot the independent veteran Labour MP from north London.
The protest, called by the Together Alliance and Palestine solidarity movements, which was backed by about 500 groups including unions, anti-racist campaigns and Muslim representative bodies, took over the streets of London last weekend.
Corbyn told the media that the “problems we face are not caused by migrants or refugees” while Zarah Sultana said “there’s one minority we should be angry at: the billionaires funding division while working class people can’t make ends meet”.
Some said this was London’s biggest anti-racist demo in living memory. The organisers said over half-a-million people turned out on the day. Others put the number at nearer a million!
