Following a series of racists demonstrations, attacks on property and the targeting of the Pride demonstration in Newry, the far-right has called a demonstration in the city. The demonstration aims to divide people on the issue of provision of public services and has been called under the headline 'Locals First'.

Newry anti-racists have called a counter demonstration for Saturday 6 September at 1.30pm Marcus Square, Newry.

NIPSA members are asked to join the counter demonstration. If you wish to assist with stewarding, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
