To commemorate the 87th anniversary of the Battle of Cable
Street, we are joined by historian Evan Smith to discuss his
history of No Platform, a tactic central to the history of
British antifascism, the history of the Marxist Left in the UK,
and the ongoing debates round media and the limits of free speech
today. We discuss the origins of No Platforming as one of a
plurality of antifascist tactics, we dispel the mythologies
around critiques of the tactic taken up by elements of the
British Media, and we confront the history of contrarian free
speech absolutism on the Left: the story of the Revolutionary
Communist Party and its reactionary reinvention as the Spiked/LM
Network.
