REFORM DEFEATED IN GREATER MANCHESTER MAYORAL ELECTION

Reform UK have lost again. They were soundly beaten in the Greater Manchester mayoral election.
We are proud of the role Greater Manchester Stand Up to Racism played in making this happen. Over four weeks local activists have given out over 30,000 leaflets and had hundreds of conversations.

This is another serious setback for Reform UK following their defeat in the Makerfield by-election and the financial sleaze crisis that has engulfed Nigel Farage and other leading figures in the party.
They claim to speak for ordinary people, but really they are in the pockets of the rich and use racism to divide us. During our campaign we found that thousands of working class people agree with this message.

But this election shows the far right threat remains huge. Restore Britain, who are associated with fascists and Nazis, saw their vote rise. The combined tar right vote is a threat to us all.
The far right can be beaten, but we urgently need a bigger antiracist movement and no more pandering to far right politics by the government.
Together, we can stop the far right.
JOIN US.

Statement: Deepest condolences to the family of Henry Nowak. Don’t let the far right divide us.

We send our deepest condolences to the family of Henry Nowak. No family should have to experience the loss of a son. The bodycam footage and the failures of the police are shocking and tragic.

But we are alarmed that known fascists and far right activists are trying to seize on this horrific killing and weaponise it to spread their message of hate. In Southampton, neo Nazi sect
White Vanguard called a protest purporting to be remembering Henry Nowak. Britain's leading fascist Tommy Robinson has said he will be attending future protests and Elon Musk is using X to spread misinformation.

Nigel Farage has called for "pure cold rage" in response.

Farage is cynically using a tragic death to fuel his divisive agenda and win votes.

None of these far right figures offer anything to the family of Henry Nowak, nor are they interested in justice. They are using a tragic murder for their own ends - to divide our communities and to spread their racism, hate and far right ideas.

Don't let the far right divide us.

The far right is using women's safety as a weapon to spread racism and division. They are not defenders of women - they exploit violence against women and children to push hate…
