Guardian Fletter on why Standing Up to Racism & protesting on 18th March is important
Small boats carrying refugees to the coast of England could be stopped by opening safe and legal routes. The government won’t do that because it prefers to promote a xenophobic bill to appeal to a hardcore of Tory MPs and a minority of voters (Editorial, 7 March). Speaking out against the bill is important – but words are not enough. Stand Up to Racism, supported by the TUC, has organised Resist Racism marches on 18 March in London, Cardiff and Glasgow. It is time for people to show which side they are on.
