Manchester Fascists have repeated the anti-Jewish campaign which they attempted some time ago. This time it is directed particularly at the Jewish traders in the Cheetham Hill district, the Jewish quarter in Manchester. Labels have been found stuck to shop windows and bearing such slogans as “Jews steal everything, even your names”; “How can Jews be Britons when they want a national home elsewhere”; “When Edward I expelled the Jews, Britain found her soul”.
Apart from these labels no anti-Jewish acts occurred.
