EDL watch

'The thing is, the majority of Muslims I know are not offended by someone eating bacon or drinking beer.'

surely no one should be, unless its in the home and the person has been invited

'Surely no one should be...'

TBH I don't think it's your place to say and/or that you are missing an important point.

IME/O the hurt/insult and offense is in the attack itself/the fact that someone is trying to bait you, not what they actually do to bait you.
 
Well this demo is going totaly tits up. Plod have told them they have to meet in Euston and been very vague about where they are taking them. It sounds like they are not going to get anywhere near Tower Hamlets. RMT have threatened to Strike in they are let anywhere near Liverpool Street, half full coaches are being cancelled all over the North and no one has any idea what is going on.

All they are going to get is the knuckledragging thugs who are up for a punch up with some 'pakis', those with a few more braincells are staying well clear. This will not be the EDL's finest moment.
 
Going back to those two pubs:

Euston Flyer, the Licensee: Alex Stupple, it is a fullers pub. Head office number: Tel: +44 (0)20 8996 2000 and the contact email is: fullers@fullers.co.uk

Damian O'Meara is the Manager of O'Neills in Euston. Their media/PR enquiries are handled by Jade Devlin or Hayley Longdin, 0121 265 2760, oneills_press@trimediauk.com

Just in case people might want to register their concern that the EDL are planning to meet there uninvited.
 
It seems they are having to 'muster' in Euston because the RMT will strike if they go near Liverpool Street. Spanner in works, nice one RMT.

Why on earth isn't it Treelovers place to say that most Muslims are not offended by people eating bacon sandwiches and drinking beer?

it's very kind of you to assist the edl in their request that their supporters not be drunk before they reach the demonstration.

by the way, people do not get invited by the landlord to pubs. generally they turn up unannounced.
 
Looking at how low the turn out is likely to be, they should have just let them march, they would have two coppers each to look after them.
 
Indeed, let them march the four mile. How many are fit enough to actually get there and how many will get waylaid in the pubs en route is anyone's guess. It has gone tits up whatever. I think the Met have taken tactical advice from West Yorkshire who are experts at containing them in a car park and then telling them to fuck off.

They are threatening to go back to Tower Hamlets on the 22nd October if the police fuck it up for them (and the locals and anachists do not beat them to a pulp). The outcome of that will be the police fucking it up for them again.

Shame
 
Oh and things look to be going even more tits, I am hearing rumours the both pubs in Euston are shutting their doors tomorrow. Humiliated and sober.
 
The confusion continues massively
Tower Hamlets update

Leadership are extremely sorry for any inconvenience that this is causing but muster points and parking has now changed.

EDL members travelling by Coach/Minibus are to be dropped off at Kings Cross, the coach/minibus must then proceed to Southwark Bridge where the Police are making arrangements for parking on the Bridge. Link below for Southwark Bridge, which includes a map of where it is located:-

http://www.southwarkbridge.co.uk/

The Public Houses will be as follows:-

Flying Scotsman
4 Caledonian Road
London
N1 9DU

The Dun A Ri

At 2pm we will make our way to the demo point so if you are not at one of the above you won’t be going.
Please do make sure you arrive in plenty of time, as we do not know what restrictions may be placed on travel shortly before the demonstration.
Please can we also ask that you bring your own refreshments, as although there are a few pubs in the area, it's going to be difficult enough keeping everyone together.

tbh the flying scotsman's been a right wing favourite for years so there's not much point letting them know they're going to be playing unwilling host to the edl.

i'm disappointed that you feel the need to take up the temperance cudgel from rutita1.
 
It amuses me greatly that they will need to lug their own cans with them as decent people won't have them on their establishments for a normal pint.

Sales of wife beater should do well in the local offies

hmmm very heavy manners policing even for the EDL. after the leicester debacle - 12 forces, 1500 cops, 700 edl and still violence - the met will not want to take a PR beating for bad operations. it wd be most embarassing if just after the riots they fucked up again. the press will not be forgiving. i like how they have been told to bring their own butties and flasks cos the pubs see the edl as toxic. this is going to seriously annoy a lot of wavering EDLers, the numbers will be down and tommy slagged once again for the heavy compromise talking to cops and getting a crap deal. werent they gonna march anyway wotever plod and that theresa maynot said?
on a different note, may we apologise for railroading this threard off into a bizarre discussion on the pros and cons of the bren gun etc. all this due to bad research in the last malatesta piece. 2nd apology in a month. crikey!
 
Just putting it out there, the less they get to drink, the less they are likely to attack the locals. The more tits up this goes for them (and not being able to have a beer is as tits up as it can go for them) the less likely they are going to be bothered to come back. Make London as unwelcoming as possible for them I say.

you're (rather foolishly, imo) assuming that they won't have laid in supplies to prevent a drink drought. frankly if i were in their ranks i would make damn sure i had sufficient dutch courage with me from the start of the day: and i don't drink. there'll be hip flasks and tinnies and bottles making their rounds.
 
it is also standard practise to get smashed on the way to somewhere if you are taking a coach or train. Saves money on pricey pints in the pub when you arrive to have a day at the beach/smash the islamic threat
 
bare in mind most will come from up north and be drinking and snorting on the coach all the way down to London...... so they will be well oiled before they even get off the coach.

EDIT - didn't read the last post, but yeah that's what most people do...
