On October 4, 2023, thousands marched in London to mark the 90th anniversary of the Battle of Cable Street, where anti-fascist protesters stopped Oswald Mosley's British Union of Fascists (BUF) from marching through the East End. The modern march included banners declaring "No to antisemitism, Islamophobia, all racism" and chants like "Zionists are not welcome here." Talia Woodin, a Jewish Anti-Zionist Action activist, criticized pro-Israel groups for organizing their own events instead of participating in the anniversary march, calling them 'fascists' and 'unwelcome.' Meanwhile, trade unions such as Unite and organizations like Jewish Bloc for Palestine joined the protest against contemporary far-right movements. Former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn addressed the crowd, emphasizing opposition to all forms of racism. The event included a brief confrontation between marchers and counter-protesters carrying "Campaign Against Antisemitism" flags, highlighting ongoing tensions over who represents anti-fascist values today.
