Daily Mirror signs up to Kick It Out day

The Daily Mirror has this morning signed up to our Kick It Out Day of Action on Saturday 16 October and has promised to promote it in the newspaper and online. The anti-racist Day of Action, being organised jointly by HOPE not hate and Kick It Out, will target football grounds across England & Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. We will be leafleting at as many grounds and we will also be taking out adverts in match programmes in our key areas.
Overnight people from Leyton Orient, Port Vale, Norwich and Ipswich all pledged to do something around their team’s matches, bringing the current number of activities promised to 15. Several more will be announced in the next 24 hours.
The involvement of Daily Mirror is obviously a massive boost to our campaign, both in terms of credibility and promotion. The Daily Mirror has long been a supporter of the HOPE not hate campaign and in the 2010 elections several sports reporters from the newspaper provided articles and information to our tabloid newspapers.

During the 2008 Ken livingstone Election I came across some of the UAF who were going around is such a forcefull way it was intimidating for anyone who had a genuine concern about immigration who was thinking of voting BNP, the way they felt they were better than anyone else and free speech for the BNP should be stopped because if they didn't prevent the BNP from having their say it would be the same as those who let Hitler get in power , what was worse these people as well as thinking they had a god given right to tell people how labour should behave had no knowledge of the Stalinist way labour had destroyed itself in the 80's
