Embrace the confusion!
Strong suggestion that they want to protest in Manchester early October. Personally, I am waiting for strong 2nd source confirmation. Last time around was early last year I think (maybe late 2009) - was a bit messy overall. Good-ish anti turnout. Although numbers and morale are generally down, there are lot of locals who could be sucked in to the wrong side of the vibe for the day so would expect a success relative to recent debacles.

What is their main wall now?
There seem to be tons of EDL pages, most of which seem to be abandoned to those who have hacked them.

Well, according to a blog posting at the Hope Not Hate site, that's precisely what he's doing: http://www.hopenothate.org.uk/blog/article/1391/edl-leader-on-hunger-strike . I haven't seen any confirmation of this anywhere else so far...

Here's some more on that divvy EDL coach transporting the "Clueless or Bermuda Triangle division".
Before the double decker bus was brought to evacuate them, locals gathered and shouted at them. Minute 0.57 "This is East London"
Earlier, back down the road when the windows were being caved in, an EDL angel was punched and fell out of the emergency exit onto the pavement and then the coach drove off leaving her behind. She was kicked up the backside by a (white UAF?) but then some asian people picked her up and escorted her away.

I put a question mark on that so no confirmation. Could've been anybody. Just seen another video of 2 guys boasting about it and they look UAF types to me...
Has there been any analysis of the familial backgrounds of the EDL?, i will bet amongst the casuals, nutters, r/w skins, ex NF, etc there will be a fair few whose parents/grandparents were trade unionists, maybe even convenors, and who were brought up as LP supporters, etc, the left has lost these people to the right and maybe needs to look at why this is..
what, boasting about kicking a woman in the backside after she fell out of the coach, very brave...

Yeah it's a bit of a video nasty, sickening. They even laugh. I cringed at the video. There's no proof they are UAF but it's the UAF who'll get the blame.

I think we are all getting a little bit too precious here.
She was one of a group of people who had come to London with the express intention of striking fear into the local community. They have spent the last two weeks winding themselves up into a frenzy of "Kill Mozzy scum!", and "Burn all the Mosques!" If one of them makes the mistake of thinking she can scream insults from the safety of a bus then 'falls' out and gets a kicking then she really doesn't have anyone to blame but herself.
I'll save my sympathy for someone more deserving.

It is her reasons for being on the bus that I take issue with.

Them guys on the video laughing at the woman getting kicked are dickheads, but they're not dickheads for laughing at an EDL member been kicked.
The Manchester EDL demo is on the same date as an Republican demo in Liverpool (also the same date as the Angels demo in London). After the last time Casuals United came to Manchester and crapped it every time they saw the 32 County Sovereignty Movement I can see this not being a coincidence. Then again, I think they just pluck the dates out of the air or according the the football schedule.

There has been a brief study earlier this year/late last year which included which party the EDL members interviwed voted for and it painted a very mixed picture between Tories and Labour. Can't find it but I think it was a University research project in the Midlands.

Astonishing that the HnH site has 'they did not pass' as a headline when in fact it was the Police who did not let them pass rather than the counterdemo.
