Headquarters for the #BritishUnionOfFascists were attacked by 300 #communist #antifascists on #ThisDayInHistory in 1933, who gleefully used iron bars to wreck the offices until police arrived to save them. The #fascists were subsequently asked to vacate the building by its owner.
Hurrah for the Blackshirts!
Harold Harmsworth, 1st Viscount Rothermere with Adolf Hitler at Berchtesgaden, 7 January 1937
If the #DailyMail backs #ReformUK at the next UK election, it will be the first time it hasn't supported the #ConservativeParty since it came out in favour of #OswaldMosley's #BritishUnionOfFascists #Blackshirts in the 1930s. #ukpol

British #fascist politician #OswaldMosley was born on #ThisDayInHistory in 1896. His #BritishUnionOfFascists went through several rebrandings, but the public up through the '60s knew what #fascism meant and sided with #antifa. Sadly, his views are now mainstream with #ReformUK.
On #ThisDayInHistory in 1936, the #BattleOfCableStreet brought together #anarchists, #socialists, #antifascists, #Jews, and #Irish workers in London's #EastEnd. They faced #OswaldMosley's #BritishUnionOfFascists and the Met #Police, routing them both & chasing off the #fascists.
"During the 1930s, the #CanadianUnionOfFascists (CUF) was founded. Based first in Winnipeg, then in Toronto, it was led by #ChuckCrate and modelled on #OswaldMosley's #BritishUnionOfFascists."
On #ThisDayInHistory in 1962, leader of the #BritishUnionOfFascists and wannabe dictator Sir #OswaldMosley tried to give a speech in Manchester. Thousands of #antifascists pelted him with fruit, knocking his arse down, and police had to stop his shit speech after seven minutes.
On this day in 1962, Oswald Mosley and his British Union of Fascists got the Manchester welcome they so richly deserved.

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1936, a bunch of #anarchists, #antifascists, #Jews, #Irish workers, and other #WorkingClass people in London's East End fought the Met #Police and #Mosley's #BritishUnionOfFascists in the #BattleOfCableStreet. Never forget that worker #solidarity can win.
