If you joined in the "live" blogging experiment at Lancaster Unity on election night you'll remember that we had a lot of fun, and that we said we'd repeat the experience in the future.
Well, it set us thinking - elections and breaking news (like the BNP rebel expulsions) are real anti-fascist crowd-pullers, and while we can blog news and moderate comments in near real time, the process is cumbersome, especially for you as you need to constantly hit page refresh to keep up.
There is a better way, of course, and sometimes visitors have asked us to provide a regular forum for continued, more flowing discussion - so we have!
It's simply called Unity - because that says it all.
The forum is complementary to Lancaster Unity (and other Unity and anti-fascist websites), and we hope it becomes a major weapon in the fight against the far-Right.
We'll post the address of the Unity forum here at 10.00 a.m. on Sunday morning, and there will be a permanent link in the sidebar.
Self-registration is currently enabled, but we intend to move to Admin-approved registration soon after launch, so come early and get on board.
