The Socialist Workers Party is both saddened and shocked at the news that senior echo leadership has removed the posters for our candidate James Hobson. Mr. Hobson along with the entirety of the Party are full believers in the right to free speech and fair elections. The removal of the posters is a clear step towards authoritarian fascism, something we are proud to oppose. We urge echo to reconsider its actions and let the will of the people manifest.
