Golders Green Together, the cross-communal initiative to combat the neo-Nazi rally in Golders Green, has reached more than 285,000 people with its “thunderclap” post, as supporters simultaneously broadcast a message of anti-racism across social media.
The post was sent out at 5pm on Thursday on behalf of more than 390 people who signed up to send it out through their Twitter, Facebook or Instagram accounts.
The message, which has been further shared by the supporters’ followers, read: “I’m supporting #GoldersGreenTogether because I’m saying no to #antisemitism and yes to #unity on 4th July”.

On Friday morning, the group will host its final event, with volunteers decorating Golders Green with gold and green ribbons.
