From Lecce with love


FROM LECCE WITH LOVE

As news of the recently imprisoned UK antifascists spreads around the world, antifascist comrades in Lecce, Italy recently organised an info-benefit event for those behind bars. While the event was put on at short notice, it was both well-organized and successful. Everyone sat down to a good meal while the case was talked about and discussed. Printed information was also made available in both Italian and English. Italian antifascists are no stranger to the State using trumped-up conspiracy charges to ensnare those from our movement, it is something that has happened in Italy many times.
Around 30 people attended the event and before everyone sat down to dinner a collection was made, raising 200 Euros, which has been sent to those inside. Cards were also signed for the imprisoned comrades sending love and solidarity from Lecce. Thanks to everyone who attended and to the good comrades who organised the event.
