  • Anti-fascism banned in Hungary – Protest outside the Hungarian Embassy in London – Saturday 14th February 12pm

    💥Alerta💥

    When – 12 noon, Saturday 14th February

    Where – Hungarian Embassy in London,
    35 Eaton Place
    Belgravia
    SW1X 8BY

    The Hungarian government has proscribed “Antifa” as a terrorist organisation, marking all those who oppose fascism as terrorists and placing activists under surveillance. Multiple anti-fascist groups have been banned and the Hungarian government even shut down a Holocaust memorial event where a Holocaust survivor was due to speak.

    In a show trial, 25 year old non-binary anti-fascist Maja T. has been sentenced to 8 years in prison. Gabriele M. Has been sentenced to 7 years and Anna M. has been sentenced to 2 years.

    In Britain as well Black and Brown youth have been put on trial and sentenced for helping defend their communities from racist attacks during the pogroms of Summer 2024.

    Meanwhile on 14th February neo-Nazis are holding a music festival, rally and meeting in Budapest, to pay tribute to Nazis and their collaborators in WW2, which thousands of neo-nazis will travel from around the world to attend. The anti-fascist counter demo has been banned and Hungarian cops will be out hunting anti-fascists gathering to help defend their communities.

    Anti-fascists in Hungary have called for an international day of solidarity on 14th February. We will be answering this callout and invite you to gather with us outside the Hungarian Embassy in London.

    Fighting fascism is our social responsibility and when states ban fighting fascism it is our social responsibility to all be criminals.

    Free Maja T !
    Free Gabriele M !
    Free Anna M !
    Freedom for all political prisoners here in Britain and worldwide. Nobody is free until all of us are free!

    “If you want to know what you would have done in the 1930s, during the nazi era, then look at what you are doing now.”

  • Free Gino! Free All Political Prisoners!

    Bristol stands in solidarity with Gino, a fellow antifascist who was arrested in Paris under a European arrest warrant, and who is now facing extradition to Hungary.

    Gino is alleged to have been involved in a 2023 Budapest antifascist mobilisation against the Nazi celebrated holiday, “Day of Honor”, and in Hungary the fascist Orban government punishes such offences with up to 15 years in prison.

    Free Gino, and Free all antifascist prisoners, including comrades in our country who are also sitting in prison for defending their communities against fascist violence!

    See @liberez_gino for more information on how we can support, and continue to follow this page for future campaigns in solidarity with antifascist prisoners!
