EDL watch

[barney_pig]

one of their supporters won a case here a few months back- he had hung a st.georges cross on the fence around the half built mosque on the oxford road and was then arrested by the OB for racial/religious hatred charges. the case was a farce, the Bill made a complete arse of themselves trying to prove that the english flag was a symbol of hatred (apparently the cross might have caused distress to muslims, one wonders what the coppers made of the numerous churches scattered along the road), the half dozen edl who
turned out in 'solidarity' managed to lurch around the magistrates court for 20 minutes befoire hitting the pub for the rest of the day and the would be martyr was found not guilty to a avalanche of indifference in the town.
the demo planned for this weekend is a direct result of this previous event. the edl are objecting to a attempt to renew a unused, so far, planning permission for a mosque in east Reading. They want to capitalise on some misgivings in the town over the progress(?) of the new mosque being built(?) on the oxford road, where not a brick has been laid since before christmas, and there are a number of questions about breaches of planning permission.
disappointingly for the edl there is neither a active swp branch nor a history of Islamism in the town; so little chance of shrieking uaf lollipop politics nor poppy burning shenanigans to create a enviroment that the edl can feed in.

yeah, what happened eventually? when i walked past there were about 6 or 7 of them - how long were they there for, do you know?

Have a trawl through the photos on this facebook group.

by the time we got into town the only evidence of their presence was a single abandoned leaflet lying in Broad street; I think that if we had gone up to the three guineas then we might have found them, when they were in the town a group of christian women were apparently giving them a hard time

I think we have a winner


I look out of my window it’s raining yet again

I grab my coat, I’m on my way

In a country that’s not the same

What happened to my homeland?

That my father gave to me

Just walk around the place you live

The reason is clear to see

Women wearing burka’s

And a mosque dominated skyline

Why can’t they live as we do in this England that is mine?

“Give me back my England” I shout but no one heard

“Help me now before we lose our English spoken word”

Before we lose our identity, our purpose and our law

So stand up here besides me and shout out “NO MORE”

People moaned and people groaned

But my words they sank like stone

I looked all around me I was standing on my own

I heard a noise, some sort of noise, from what I could not tell

But down the road before me came the mighty EDL

We’ll give you back your England, your rights and your laws

We’re taking back our country

We’ll take this shit no more

Now I stand with my brothers, my words can now be heard

My views and my opinions on facebook now are aired

But the hour glass keeps running, with every grain of sand

So don’t sit on your arse’s, come join us

Take a stand.

People moaned and people groaned.

I'm sure they fucking did.

5/5 for mentioning facebook in a poem tho

 

[rollinder]

^
women in burkas made it rain did they?

 

[frogwoman]

i don't know what's worse about that poem tbh ... the absymal attempts to make it rhyme or the actual content ...

Give me back my England

 

[LiamO]

“Give me back my England” I shout but no one heard

“Help me now before we lose our English spoken word”

Too late for that my son.

I often have difficulty when dealing with call centre staff in India.

I have come to the realisation that the difficulty arises because the call centre bods only speak proper, BBC, 'Queens English' - whereas very few of their british callers can do the same.

So there you have it, dear 'poet'. Indian call centre workers... doing their bit to protect your 'English spoken word'... whilst semi-literate cunts like you strangle it to death... one monosyllable at a time

 

[Corax]

Give me back my England

I can sympathise with that sentiment very well.

Us Beaker People have had enough; immigration is destroying our culture. Bloody Jutes, Angles and Saxon everywhere, and they don't even bury their dead with a pottery beaker beside them, fucking savages.

And a mosque dominated skyline

 

[frogwoman]

lol, i think it was because the poet was trying to get something to rhyme with "why can't they live as we do in this england that is mine"


anyway 1 mosque to them = a "mosque dominated skyline"

 

[Citizen66]

Take a stand.

Surely the correct idiom is Make a stand?

Although it wouldn't surprise me if the poem was just a smokescreen to encourage theft.

Women wearing burka’s

Women wearing burka’s what?

for every priest thats targeted, ten IMANS shud be targeted

Fuck have they got against Bowie's wife?

 

[frogwoman]

I'm more worried about how "people moaned and people groaned" to be honest

 

[Citizen66]

Women wearing burka’s what?

So don’t sit on your arse’s

And sit on what belonging to your arse?

 

[frogwoman]

she's one of THEM

 

[Citizen66]

I looked all around me I was standing on my own

And yet you failed to take the hint.

And how it manages to keep running. Rather than running out once the hour is up.

 

[Citizen66]

I think it might be broken.

 

[frogwoman]

oh well, we'll be sorry when we're living under a mosque dominated skyline.

I heard a noise, some sort of noise, from what I could not tell

This is pure William McGonagall. I want to hear the rest of the poem that's the first line for.

I heard a noise, some sort of noise, from what I could not tell
Mayhap it was a crowing cock or the church bell that did knell
Or some be-turbanned Johnnie who would drag us all to hell
With his prayer call a-wailing and his strange Mohammed-smell

 

[Citizen66]

Oooh, well done.
