May Day March on the Strand

Strand, London. Tue 1st May 2018




 At the head of the march was band from the Musicians Union, followed by the organiser's banner

 Behind them were a few small groups of trade union branches with their banners

 But most of the march was Kurds, here calling fror Freedom for Ocalan, Turks and other foreign communist groups

 Alevi

 Kurds carry a portrait of British volunteer Anna Campbell, killed defending Afrin

 

 Turkish MLKP members with a banner 'Defend Afrin'

 

 'No to Racism!' Long live the unity of workers & Peoples solidarity! - Day-Mer Community Centre'

 'The power of working class is in their unity and solidarity'

 Large portraits of Engels and Lenin with quotations

 

 I missed most of the lighting of flares at the end of the march
