Sheffield stood up to racism! Over 1000 anti-racists (trade unionists, activists, diverse communities) marched, opposing Neo-Nazi UKIP's ~100. We are the anti-racist majority.

​Next: Sheffield & South Yorkshire Unites Against Hate, Sat, Nov 22, 11:30 am, Devonshire Green. Solidarity and victory!

Our Plan for Stop UKIP (8 Nov) is ON. Assemble 12PM @ Sheffield Cathedral, moving to Castlegate. We are fighting back against UKIP & fascist Nick Tenconi, and challenging the police's shameful decision to facilitate Neo-Nazis. Swipe for legal rights, safety tips, and the full schedule. #StopUKIP

Join the Anti-Racist Majority tomorrow (Sat, 8 Nov) to show Neo-Nazis are NOT welcome!

We condemn South Yorkshire Police for allowing Neo-Nazi UKIP to march. They ignored an open letter from 72 local groups/leaders. Sheffield is proud to be diverse and welcoming. Be there!

Despite SYP allowing the Neo-Nazi march and imposing a Section 14 order banning our assembly at Sheffield Cathedral, we condemn their actions and will proceed with the anti-racist protest at the Cathedral this Saturday.

SYP ignores community leaders, putting refugees at risk. We defend our city!
SHAME ON SY POLICE! DEFEND OUR COMMUNITY! WHY WE’RE STILL ASSEMBLING AT SHEFFIELD CATHEDRAL TO STOP NAZI UKIP (Corner Logo: STAND UP TO RACISM) We condemn the disgraceful decision by South Yorkshire Police to allow Neo-Nazi UKIP to march through our city threatening and intimidating asylum seekers in their homes. ​The decision to impose a Section 14 order on Sheffield’s proud and diverse anti-racist movement puts refugees, asylum seekers and their supporters at risk of violence. ​They have ignored an open letter from 25 local organisations, 16 elected councillors and 31 community leaders calling for UKIP’s permission to march to be revoked. (Corner Logo: STAND UP TO RACISM) The decision to restrict our right to defend the community shows that SY Police have learnt nothing from the racist violence outside the Holiday Inn at Manvers, Rotherham in August 2025. ​SY Police conditions state that anti-racists cannot assemble at Sheffield Cathedral. They are seeking to criminalise our solidarity. They are drawing equivalence between peaceful anti-racists and a political movement with a history of violence and bigotry. ​It is our view that anti-racist should still assemble at Sheffield Cathedral. ​(Corner Logo: STAND UP TO RACISM) Thousands of leaflets, hundreds of posters have covered the city to advertise the protest. It would be impossible to guarantee that everyone planning to attend will be aware of SY Police conditions. ​It would be a dereliction of our duty of care to all those vowing to defend our city from fascists to move the protest at such short notice. ​We defended our community from the far right last Summer, and we intend to defend out community this Saturday. ​We are on the right side of history – we cannot go back to the 1930s. ​(Corner Logo: STAND UP TO RACISM)
