First Minister Carwyn Jones has condemned plans by the Welsh Defence League to hold a rally in Cardiff this Saturday saying the demonstration is designed to incite racial hatred and cause ugly scenes on the streets of the Capital.
He said:
“We pride ourselves on being a tolerant, multi-cultural society and we are determined that Wales should be a country in which all sections of the community can respect each other’s cultures, religions and languages.
“A demonstration directed at any religious group has no place in our Capital City. We must challenge every manifestation of racism, intolerance and discrimination as we find it and let organisations who peddle racial hatred know that they are not welcome here in Wales.”
