Its chairman is Labour Party London Mayor Ken Livingstone , and its Joint secretaries is shared Weyman Bennett national organiser of the Anti Nazi League , who is a member of the central committee of the Socialist Workers' Party and Sabby Dhalu formerly of the National Assembly Against Racism ( NAAR ).

The organisation has signatories and members from across the political spectrum including MPs from all of Britain’s leading political parties. Other notable signatories include Holocaust survivor Henry Gutterman .

The group was formed as part of a coalition between the Anti-Nazi League and the National Assembly Against Racism the TUC and many leading British Unions such as CGWU and NATFI in response to electoral successes by the BNP.

The anti-fascist magazine Searchlight disaffiliated from UAF after an argument over tactics to defeat the BNP.
