About this Event
The National Education Union are subsiding train tickets from Hastings to oppose Tommy Robinsons 'Unite the Kingdom' march on May 16th.
NB - TICKETS ARE OFF PEAK RETURNS VALID FOR GROUP TRAVEL ONLY.
Why are we mobilising?
On 28 March, half a million people marched through London in the largest ever anti-far-right demonstration in British history. That was a historic moment - but the fight is not over.
Tommy Robinson has announced a second "Unite the Kingdom" rally in central London on 16 May 2026.
Crucially, 16 May is also the date of the annual Nakba Day commemoration, which marks the dispossession of the Palestinian people in 1948. Robinson has deliberately chosen this date in an attempt to drive the Palestine movement off the streets of central London.
We need to organise now at every level. Reform is set to do well in the upcoming May elections, and Robinson is planning this march just a week later. That means Together organisation in every locality - a serious campaign to stop Reform at the ballot box and Robinson on the streets.
Together we can:
- Defend the right to protest for Palestine on Nakba Day
- Reject Tommy Robinson's politics of Islamophobia, racism, and division
- Build on the momentum of 28 March and show the far right they are outnumbered
We did it on 28 March. We can do it again on 16 May. See you in London.
