4 October 1936. Battle of Cable Street took place in Cable Street, Whitechapel, London. It was a clash between the Metropolitan Police, protecting a march by the British Union of Fascists (BUF) led by Sir Oswald Mosley and various anti-fascist and Jewish demonstrators.

90 years ago today, 30,000 people gathered on Holbeck Moor in Leeds to stop British fascist leader Oswald Mosley and his Blackshirts holding a rally. My grandad was there to help stop the fascists. I was so proud to speak at the unveiling of the plaque commemorating that historic day.
A plaque explaining: 

The Battle of Holbeck Moor

On 27 September 1936, 30,000 people assembled to prevent the leader of the British Union of Fascists, Sir Oswald Mosley, and his Blackshirts, from holding a rally.'They shall not pass.'

Nurse & #WWII veteran Elsie Chin Yuen Seetoo was born #OTD in 1918 & is 108 today! The first Chinese-American to serve in the US Army Nurse Corps. She received the Congressional Gold Medal in 2020. ..🧵 #WomenInSTEM #Nursing #Veterans
A poignant moment showing an elderly Elsie Chin Yuen Seetoo (1918–2026) sitting in a wheelchair next to a large archival display of her wartime service. Positioned on the left, she wears an iconic white and gold military side cap, a light blue collared shirt beneath a tan knit cardigan, and classic wire-rimmed glasses. She smiles gently toward the camera with fingers on her right hand bandaged. To her right stands a prominent black-and-white exhibition portrait of her younger self in uniform, showcasing her thick, curly dark hair and a determined expression. Below this historic image, a white informational plaque details her pioneering achievements as a First Lieutenant in the U.S. Army Nurse Corps. The setting is a modern, brightly lit museum or gallery interior featuring clean walls and polished dark wooden paneling. The composition creates a powerful juxtaposition between youth and age, reflecting a reflective, celebratory mood that honors her profound, lifelong historical legacy.

Not to be pedantic but Christopher Harborne has already given £25 million to Reform and Ben Delo £8 million. So the figure isn’t £72 million - it’s £105 million.

And another £36M donation to Farage/Reform. I am really disappointed in @andyburnham.bsky.social in not doing anything in regards to political donations. Both of these donations should be investigated by the police and hmrc. People do not make these donations if they're wanting something for it.

Rupert Lowe •

The organiser of the illegal migrant protests, Danny Tommo, has had his mother's details published in the media. Despicable.

The Mail must retract/apologise for the harm caused. Farage wants to stop working class protestors protecting their identity.

This is why they do it.
