Ninety years on, the lessons of the antifascist battle of Cable Street have never felt more relevant | Sarah Sackman. With sectarian forces increasingly seeking to divide us, we must come together to fight for security, fairness and tolerance Sarah Sackman is the Labour MP for Finchley and Golders Green “ No pasarán !” – they shall not pass. It’s the rallying cry that strikes at the core of my identity. The same anti-fascist slogan heard by my Spanish grandmother, who endured the horrors of that country’s civil war, echoed in London where my Jewish paternal grandparents lived. Ninety years.
