Polish Police force anti-fascist activists to clear way for far-right march on Army Day
The Independent 15 August '17
 Polish police broke up a feminist rally & forcefully removed activists to clear the way for a march for far-right extremists.
  A live stream of the protest shows members of the All-Polish Women's Strike group and activists from Obywatele RP, which aims to defend democratic principles in Poland, taking part in a sit-in in central Warsaw, to block the far-right rally's route.
Many of the women were holding up photos of Heather Heyer, the American woman killed when a car ploughed into a crowd of counter-protesters during a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, over the weekend.
 Footage shows the women activists dressed in black and sitting on the floor, with banners reading: "If you're not outraged you're not paying attention. Heather Heyer, victim of fascism August 2017".
Another read: "Get fascists off the streets".
Holding white roses, the group aimed to prevent several dozen extremists from marching in central Warsaw on Poland's Armed Forces Day.
However, police officers were filmed forcibly removing the protesters off the street before taking them to a side street and recording their names. As they did so, new protesters arrived to take their place in the sit-in.
   Officers were also seen heavily guarded the far-right extremists on their march which according to local media reports was organised by the nationalist All-Polish Youth group.
According to Polish news website Fakt, members of the National Radical Camp, known in Poland as the ONR, were also part of the far-right march.
   An anti-communist and nationalist political group, the National Radical Camp has been described as being influenced by Italian fascism and rejecting parliamentary democracy.
Fakt also reported that officers told the anti-fascists protesters to clear the way or the force https://uk.news.yahoo.com/polish-police-forcefully-removes-feminist-201903544.htm https://uk.news.yahoo.com/polish-police-forcefully-removes-feminist-201903544.html
