DescriptionCable Street - geograph.org.uk - 253565.jpg
English: Cable Street. These buildings are at the junction of Cable St and Royal Mint St in the East End of London. Cable St was the site of a potential turning point in British history when on 4 October 1936 the working people of the East End fought Oswald Mosley and his supporters in the Battle of Cable St. A coalition of workers, trades unionists and the Jewish population of the area dealt the British Union of Fascists a blow, permanently damaging to their cause. This photo shows some of the few buildings in the area that survive from that time. This was the symbolic beginning of the fight against fascism in the U.K. The photo was taken on the 70th anniversary of the battle.
