In this podcast, we sit down with Fiona Lali to discuss why far-right violence has swept Britain, the response from the labour movement, and the communist perspective on how we can smash the far right using class struggle methods.

The menace of the far right has reared its ugly head in the past week, with more violence on the cards in the coming days. This should be a wake-up call to the ranks of the labour movement. Workers and youth must mobilise to smash the far right.

On 4 May 1978, Bengali textile worker Altab Ali was murdered in a racially-motivated attack. A recent TV series looks at the struggle against racism and the far right in this period, revealing how militant mass action can curb oppression.
