A RALLY is being held tomorrow calling on the Oxford Union to cancel the invitation of the BNP leader and a Holocaust denier to speak at an event next week.
Concerned residents, students, members of Oxfordshire's trade unions and anti-racist campaigners will be meeting at the Town Hall, in St Aldate's, Oxford, at 7.30pm.
Oxford Union has invited BNP leader Nick Griffin and historian David Irving, a convicted Holocaust denier, to speak at its Freedom of Speech event next Monday.
Holocaust survivor Gena Turgel and the Lord Mayor of Oxford, John Tanner, will be among those speaking at the event.
Those attending the rally will also be called to take part in a peaceful protest at the Oxford Union in the event that Mr Griffin and Mr Irving attend the event.
