This year has seen a marked increase in the attempts by far right groups in Australia to capitalise on the current economic crisis. These groups are using the current government’s increasing nationalist agenda and ‘War on Terror’ rhetoric to direct people’s fears onto vulnerable groups in society. History shows that these far right and fascist organisations are a threat to workers everywhere and need to be stopped as soon as possible. Counter mobilisations to these far right groups by labour and human right groups are being planned for all around Australia for the weekend of the 18 and 19 of July. There are two organising committees, click here and here, working towards the counter mobilisation for Melbourne on the 18 of July.
