Fighting against racism and fascism

Searchlight’s voice is more important than ever, and I am delighted that it will now be available to a wider audience than ever before in its new incarnation online. Searchlight has been extremely helpful over the years in exposing the far right, corruption, criminality and the murky links between organised crime and powerful interests in the UK and abroad. I wish Searchlight the very best.
To investigate fascists takes real courage and unusual commitment. The government, police, mainstream media occasionally take a look, but in the UK only Searchlight have kept at it, relentlessly and admirably, regardless of threat or obstacle. It’s journalism that matters. A rare thing.
British Jews have been persecuted over the centuries; British blacks since the Windrush generation of the 1950s; British Muslims, especially after the Islamist 9/11 and then 7/7 terrorist attacks in New York 2001 and London 2005. But until the last few years there has not been a simultaneous threat against all three British communities of Jewish, Black and Muslim Britons – meaning the need for Searchlight has never been greater.

The Ulster Protestant sectarian organisations are strong in the UK’s North West Region too. I was repeatedly attacked by them as a child in my home. The UDA, UVF and the UFF are paramilitary organisations who had the support of International Nazis in MI5, MI6 and the British State, where they gained access to the covert military communications equipment used by The State to attack children in Minority communities. I was attacked in this way. My report is with you, and the Authorities as well.
Dan says
We can prove how we are attacked by The State in this, and in so many other ways as well. This is traded as the illicit Market in ‘Judaica’ by Nazis internationally. Best wishes. We continue our vigilance.
