A great show of community strength against far-right hate on Saturday in Aldershot. 70 people including trade unions, faith groups, community groups and organisations joined Rushmoor SUTR and Rushmoor United to counter the far-right demo targeting asylum seekers in a local hotel.

@samfr.bsky.social Failed State got a mention in the Brighton & Hove council meeting discussing devolution
