I saw The Cable Street Musical last night at Southwark Playhouse. Very highly recommended. Thanks for this very informative video. I vaguely knew the facts but this has educated me.
Another great presentation of an accident in british history. How can it be, that a former british socialist grows into a fascist monster? Reminds me of the story of Benito Mussolini, startin as a socialist writer, later turnin into "el duce". Or the british left wing band "crisis", later becomin the right wing band "southern death cult". Some kind of brain issue, personal problems or the greed to become a person of public interest? What are the reasons, to turn your view in an angle of 360°s. I'm just a german idiot, workin, with a creative vein, interested in history. Great show, grand cinema, i really like your voice and your points of view. Deep divin into the madness, keep on...
nor did the school i was in, in the Netherlands, pay any attention to this event... Mosely and his party were briefly talked about, but not a lot. fyi in most schools it is not even in the history texts, only in the higher segment of education after basic school (untill ~12 year old) the historylessons are more extended. because i'm interested in history i listen to a radioprogram on the Dutch public radio every sundaymorning that handles all kinds of history of all times and all places. in this program i heard about this epic fight. there was mentioned that all the young lads had brought their marbles to throw under the hoofs of the horses when the police made a charge at the crowd so to make the horses fall before they could do much damage... 💪💪
Because they're miserly capitalists. And because they're revolutionary communists. And they're secretive and isolationist. And because they're globalist and cosmopolitan. Hey, wait a minute...
British fascists fought the Nazis from the first day of the war it was the communists who refused to fight because of the German Russian non aggression pact which split Poland between them, the BUF had Jewish supporters so did Mussolinis fascist party.
My paternal grandfather was fighting in Ireland in 1918. Well I say fighting, they were given wooden guns so they couldn’t hurt the Irish They also slept under bushes even in the winter, they would hang their great coats over the bushes and they would wake up to them frozen in that shape in the morning
I’m Jewish, and we have been terrorized by our governments and neighbors throughout our history. But when terror came to East End, our neighbors stood with us. We must never forget that. Cable Street is a singular event in history and demonstrates the true character of the British people. Thanks for the great video.
Yep, gonna get pelters for this but here goes. Volunteer in a charity shop, browsing through an old world atlas. Found a country called Palestine, presumably occupied { and i use that word advisedly} by Palestinians. Do you know whatever happened to them, as i can't seem to find it on a current atlas. Also brought to mind something about the King David Hotel bombing, apparently the worst terrorist atrocity ever commited against British citizens. I'm a bit vague but do you know any of the details. Many thanks.
I've never heard of the Battle of Cable Street. But twenty years ago, when I was still a university student, I wrote a paper on Mosley and the ideology of his party. I had never heard of him before then, either. He reminds me of Mussolini, who started his public life as an able socialist journalist. Mosley now seems more like a sad and bad joke nobody laughed at and which annoyed everyone. There's an interview with his Mitford wife available on RUclips. She's so upper-class I had trouble understanding her English. It's a historical document and worth watching.
@Jack_Warner Well, you see, I'm not even British, so it sort of makes no difference to me, but I will watch. The paper was for a university course, and it wasn't all that good either. We had our fascists here, and plenty of them. We were thrown into the war on Germany's side and told this would keep the Soviets at bay. When the Red Army came, I don't know what our people expected from them. Flowers and hugs, I imagine. As for a peaceful life, we have slimmer and slimmer chances of that in the future.
My favorite channel has a new upload? Yes, please! I just binged your entire video library over the last week and a half. Excellent content! Not to mention your voice is amazing!
Another excellent episode! I knew about the battle, but had no idea of the size. I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm going through the older episodes and they all are excellent!
Lots of things I didn't know I didn't know! Your uploads are the best on RUclips. ❤ (as is your voice, so smooth & cool on such a sweltering Saturday in Scotland, we are so not built for 30° weather up here)
If Mosley had had the sense to forgo the black uniforms his movement might have had more success in the arena of British politics. He forgot that the wearing of uniforms in public is not the British way. Consequently, most Britons thought Mosley and his fascists were rather silly. As George Orwell observed, if fascism ever came to England, in order to be accepted by the wider British public it would have had to adopt a front of respectability where traditional conventions were outwardly observed. In short, Mosley should have worn pinstripes and ties instead of a black uniform and jackboots.
Come out ye black and tanks (chorus) : Come out ye Black and Tans, come out and fight me like a man, Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders, Tell them how the IRA made you run like hell away From the green and lovely lanes of Killashandra. Fantastic song by The Wolfetones from 1968
What has this got to do with the fight against Fascism?The Irish people almost to a man and all over the world, AND in the East end of London were PRO NAZI and pro Fascist.Sean South ,who was cut in two by a Policeman's machine gun, was a member of not one but TWO Fascist organisations! Nearly every Catholic country in the world supported Hitler, the Irish Catholics in the east end of London9and in other London. Liverpool and Manchester districts supported Oswald Mosely and Hitler. That is historical fact, I suggest you educate yourself. Fascism and Nazism are just the political side of Catholicism,The Wolf tones are sectarian bigots.
Oh and another thing celtic are anti Fascists? That is the biggest lie ever told, As a club they are Catholic. Fascist Nazi anti Jewish anti Liberal anti British ,Catholic priests used to get into celtic park FREE.celtic had their ground closed because of their fans pro Nazi chants during WW2, celtic Jewish directors have had to RESIGN because of anti Semitism at celtic park. The clubs fans are well known for flying Palestine flags!.and for their anti Jewish sentiment,
Nice. Another story where the good guys win. Thanks for this one. While I was familiar with Oswald and like minded folks from the time I didn't know about Cable Street. TIL.
Empty those chamber pots.💩🤣 That's what folks should do to these protesters who seem to be determined to disrupt folks trying to live normal lives. In modern prison terminology it's called gassing.
This is actually not accurate. The 'fascist' side was mostly teenagers, indigenous English from the working class east end they numbered around 3,000 and around a quarter of them were teenage girls; The anti fascist side numbered around 200,000 and we're a mixture of communists, Jewish Zionists and academics, mostly middle class or wealthy people The two groups never met as the police couldn't control the violent communists and the march was called off The only incident was a small group of Blackshirts (who were going early to set up podium of sorts I believe) were attacked, famously Tommy Moran boxed about a dozen communists single handedly before being hit with a wooden bat wrapped with barbed wire (you can actually see this on the footage)
Great topic and episode DiD, may I suggest you have a look at the Nazi Hunters series and maybe get some inspiration to produce episodes on the Klarsfeld's, Simon Wiesenthal and others, as well as the many hunts and end games that the series highlights, the most fascinating one for me is the capture of Eichmann.
Funny how the police often seem to end up on the wrong side of history.
Indeed
Let's not forget that Churchill had strong fash sympathies.

Thank you for producing this video. They don't teach this in school (in the USA anyway). I'm always happy to see your new videos.

My mum and dad were here. Along with all my mum's sisters.
I love this channel the voice ❤ the history ❤ absolutely brilliant
Perhaps you could do a video on why literally everyone throughout history has persecuted Jews.
Now that would be a great video.
Because they're miserly capitalists.
And because they're revolutionary communists.
And they're secretive and isolationist.
And because they're globalist and cosmopolitan.
Hey, wait a minute...
For wildly different reasons across history, as well
@@randomtheorist251 all of them good reasons.
It was a much stories day in East End History, about the only time the north and south of town agreed on anything.
British fascists fought the Nazis from the first day of the war it was the communists who refused to fight because of the German Russian non aggression pact which split Poland between them, the BUF had Jewish supporters so did Mussolinis fascist party.
Love your content and presentation! Keep the sarcasm. I like my watches with sass!

Love your colorful description of Mosley and Hitler…. 😅

This was a real example of working-class solidarity! ALL POWER TO THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIALIST WORKING CLASS! LONG LIVE ANARCHO-COMMUNISM!!!

Absolutely bloody love this channel! ❤❤
There are a fair few parallels with the lovely Niggle.
Oooh I know im going to learn something new!!!❤
Just pledged on Patreon
Yes, I’ve just seen. Thank you very much 😇🫡
First to comment what a great Chanel you have I give you a thumbs up before I even see the video you never disappoint.
Enoch Powell wasn't keen on multinational societies either.
Oswald Mosley in his fascist years allways looks like a member of the cast of a german science fiction movie!!!
Ha, ha, ha...
😂

Silly, yes. And he does look silly. To me, he was a bit of a sad and bad joke nobody laughed at and which managed to annoy pretty much everyone.
Another quality story.
Thanks for making this! My familys from East London and i had no idea this happened. Truly good VS evil
Come out ye black and tanks (chorus) : Come out ye Black and Tans, come out and fight me like a man,

I want to listen to audio books and documentaries in your voice Mr DD.
Thanks for hard work and love that you clearly put in your work.
Also is this where the word buf-foon comes from 😂
✊🏻 I think of Mosley was a disgrace as a Human being, pretty much a typical aristocrat.
Sir, an excellent episode of actual history, and the background of certain events, thank you!!!🙏👌🦉❣️
Glad you enjoyed it
Excellent!!!!! Fcvkin Excellent!!!!!!
National socialism and fascism is not the same. Fascism is not originally antisemitic.
As indeed I stated. 🤷🏻♂️
Empty those chamber pots.💩🤣
That's what folks should do to these protesters who seem to be determined to disrupt folks trying to live normal lives. In modern prison terminology it's called gassing.
I guess there are some ideas or ways of thinking that just need to be stamped out.......beaten down........suppressed.........
For some reason i thought it was liverpool. Another good video that somehow managed to get truss and her nemesis the humble lettuce a mention 👍👍👍🤣🤣🤣
You are awesome 40.8k subscribers I really think that you deserve a lot hire number. Love the work you do for us the viewers

"Hire number", do you rent the number daily, weekly or hourly?
BRILLANT! I would also like to add a word to ponder, "Dunkirk!"
This is actually not accurate.

@@davidwhite4874 nope but they can be packed together tightly by the use of food.
Like and share
I wish you wouldnt intersperse your present day political preferences. I have liked your channel as a way to get away from all that
Not liking fascists is kind of the default position ever since WW2. It’s not so much a preference as it is expected…
@@DiD86 No need to state the obvious 👍 Cheap shots like that are kind of 2019.
@guardianbuilds9660 everything the left dislike is fascist to them. They don't even understand the word.
@@DiD86 Look at the state of the country now though
Hoorah!
Peaky Blinders??
Wrong decade.😂
I am disappointed DID, you called The News of The World a newspaper. Shame on you.
the great part about it though is that it WAS a newspaper. WAS….
