[emanymton]

Why do you think your being arrested?
Because I needed a pee.

 

[malatesta32]

'The truth is it isn’t really about privilege or class, it’s just about people being assholes.'
good angle!

 

[malatesta32]

what a bunch of piss artists.

Do you remember when there was a time when some posters thought that Griffin would give his right arm to have the EDL on his side?

Why, has he got another barn conversion to do?

 

[malatesta32]

yeah he proscribed em first then realised there be money to make but by the time he had come to regret his decision tommy had fleeced em already!

 

[The39thStep]

It was more to do with political positioning more than anything else .

hadn't Griffin come to party leadership through a distinct rejection of the old policy of controlling (or attempting to) the streets? hence it would be logical that he'd reject the EDL as 'we tried that, we moved away from it'?

Not really - he imposed that policy after his election - he was still giving it the on the cobbles nonsense as part of his platform.(it was a few key people behind the scenes who realised that game was up - terry blackham esp iirc they pushed Griffin into it)

 

[malatesta32]

yeah and after the post-electoral route policy all fell to pieces post 2010 GE, it was lets go back back to square one.

[malatesta32]

indeed - a good 3 years after tony lecomber's:-

'no more marches, meetings, punch-ups'

Griffin was still going on about how:-

'it is more important to control a city’s streets than its council chamber'

 

[lazythursday]

Was just at Hebden Bridge station where there was a big multi-ethnic police presence in case any stray EDL from the Manchester demo wandered into our eco-druggie-left-liberal enclave. Fair warmed my heart. Very few passing through on the trains though apparently.

In passing, Watmough seems to have had a visit.

(whose first on the news etc)

 

[emanymton]

I see EDL news has the banner 'blowing on the dying embers of the EDL'. Doesn't that normally restart the fire?

 

[tony.c]

'hundreds of far-right protesters'? - doesn't look like more than 100

[Ranbay]

That's more than 100, but not over 500

 

[disco_dave_2000]

About another 50 weren't in this main group and arrived in the square in dribs and drabs prior to these

 

[tony.c]

That's more than 100, but not over 500

It might be more than 100, but nowhere near 500.

 

[disco_dave_2000]

i was in Albert Square for most of the afternoon, here are my photos on Demotix > EDL Manchester

 

[Ranbay]

It might be more than 100, but nowhere near 500.

Closer to 500 than 100, 14 across almost 30 deep at ruff look
