Tommy is famous, etc

Is that Mr Singh the violent criminal who is currently on the run from the police and has met with leadership very recently?

Yup,their so-called Sikh division consisted him and .....er no-one else

Vast amounts of butthurt cream has been delivered to Luton this afternoon

Judges do not see people at short notice, especially people like her.

He'll soon be their Sikh Prison Division when plod tracks him down, which shouldn't be too difficult if he has been meeting with Tommy.
He might not be too popular with any Asian fellow inmates who have the misfortune to share a wing with him.

SDL demo on saturday mainly consisted of EDL, NWI and NEI.

 

[DaveCinzano]

Sort of reminded me of 'heel' housemates being evicted from Big Brother. Well, that and the Lawrence Inquiry perp walk fiasco.

 

[Corax]

Well it's true tbh.

I do see your point, and share the at what appears to be pretty blatant classist sneering.

But on a purely factual/practical level, I bet a well-heeled freemason solicitor would stand a much better chance of getting a short-notice meeting.

 

[Kev Scott LTJ]

Oi, Dynamo...... that nice Mr Singh is back behind bars..... is that the number of 'ethnics' in the EDL back to 1?

If he had fled to America would he be sent to Singh Singh.....

Classist? You bet, as Searchlight noted two years ago 'the EDL is led on the streets by political nobodies, but is run behind the scenes by a group of former Monday Club members with city links.

 

[malatesta32]

they should have told plod 'sikh, and ye shall find' surely?

 

[Fozzie Bear]

WTF:

Quilliam facilitates Tommy Robinson leaving the English Defence League:

[butchersapron]

Just give us your grass number here and then we can move onto the next stage:

 

[malatesta32]

qu'est-ce que c'est the fuck is that?

 

[Fozzie Bear]

There is going to be an absolute shitstorm on facebook I would think.

If Tommy takes all the dosh and websites with him then they are pretty screwed I would think? It's not like they have new leaders waiting in the wings, is it?

Just got sent an email for this. If its true then its good news as there isn't any real leadership layer beneath them. There will be further fragmentation. Quillam take a lot harder line on Islamic extremism than some posters on here and I suspect the two former EDLers will still be vehemently opposed to UAF/Anti fascism.

Press conference should be interesting.

It's game over for this version if this is true. More to come from certain directions regarding this very soon i should think.

 

[malatesta32]

if this is true it means he has wrung aqll the money he can out of EDL and is now going to do the 'ex-nazi' pundit for media $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!

 

[where to]

Who funds Quillam?

 

[butchersapron]

Who funds Quillam?

Same people who might have been funding tommy r.

 

[malatesta32]

my question exactly. butchers is right - there is no leadership beneath tommy and kkkev's personal fiefdom structure. he is a media whore and knows quite a few people now so 'pounditry' could be the new thing.

 

[malatesta32]

hey up!

Quillam website has slowed down to a trickle since I looked at it ten minutes ago...

 

[yardbird]

He has quit yes. The bbc are trying to get to talk to him.

 

[butchersapron]

Yep, i can't get to the 'about' section. I expect the increase in govt money coming their way very soon as part of this will help in the future.

 

[butchersapron]

Can someone remind me, did the republicans give up after five whole years?

 

[DaveCinzano]

Of interest is that two years before he was exposed, Special Branch veteran and founder of the Muslim Contact Unit (alongside fellow spy-cop Andrew James Boyling) Bob Lambert MBE penned a piece (co-authored by then-collaborator and business partner Jonathan Githens-Mazer) for the Guardian critiquing Quilliam.

[Fozzie Bear]

Is it wrong of me to want to make a joke about Will.I.Am?

 

[DotCommunist]

Do my eyes deceive or is that kev over the shoulder?

 

[malatesta32]

its a bid for respectability. he has wrung the EDL dry and he knows there is money in them.
