The Night of the Mystery Knives
First comes a picture of an air ambulance from here:

Then comes a report in blottr, last updated 19:06
http://www.blottr.com/breaking-news/edl-clash-locals-edgware-road, presumably with the picture of the air ambulance added at 19:06.
Then comes this
http://www.demotix.com/news/826626/edl-members-get-stabbed-edgware-road-london from Joe O'Brien, showing a crime scene outside Weatherspoons and referencing stabbings (citizen journalism):
"Police outside the JD Wetherspoon pub confirmed two EDL members were stabbed and whist i was at the scene of the incident detectives and a forensic team were securing the site."
The actual time for these images is not known, but the air ambulance image was taken between 18:30 and before 19:06, and the other image of the crime scene was taken during sunset at light-up time outside the Tyburn pub, Marble Arch, so around 19:20.
Then comes a report today quoting blottr from

And one from the
Evening Standard today, reporting doubt about the identity of the alleged stabees:
Two men were seriously hurt when they were stabbed in clashes between the English Defence League and Muslim protesters after a 9/11 memorial service in London. The two men are thought to have been on opposing sides during a pitched battle outside a pub in Edgware Road last night.
An
eyewitness acccount reports:
"There was a group of EDL guys drinking outside the pub when a large group of Muslims walked past. The EDL started hurling racist abuse at the Muslims who took offence. They got angry and were yelling back," an eyewitness to the battle, who did not wish to be named by the Evening Standard, said. "Then the EDL guys picked up pub furniture and started throwing glasses and chairs and tables at the group in the street. It was chaos. At first it was just 10 EDL guys but that number quickly swelled to about 50 people," he added.
On their facebook page last night, EDL members
alleged both stabees were theirs, and that one of the two stabees was sent home on the train, and that another (Bexley/Hyam) is still in hospital.
But now, mysteriously, comes a HnH article alleging that neither police nor hospitals know anything about two EDL being stabbed, and that Billy Bunter Baker has declared open season on all Muslims. The latter is definitely true, but not news as he's been saying that for a while now.
