EDL watch

Funny isnt it, they cant seem to get their heads around the concept of no leaders. If a prominent person in the anarcho/leftist movement left it would be a non event, a whatever moment or more likely '''so long and thanks for everything" with the EDL itsView attachment 41683
 
Rump EDL in over-reaching shock:
NEW POLICY: EDL WORKERS' UNIONS. We will now be creating a series of EDL Workers' unions that will be directly opposing the left-wing unions in our places of work. The EDL Unions will be proudly right-wing and anti-communist...The EDL Will always defend and stick up for it's workers.'

After all, the BNP's made-up union has done well. bugles.

I think that's quite interesting! Looking over discussions between EDL members while on my sockpuppet account I noticed a bit of discussion of unions and picketing etc of foreign scab labour. I'm sure it will be as successful as Solidarity though..
 
and posters are supposed to get that from TL posting a pic and quote???

can you see what your post looks like to people not in the know?
 
'Bristol treasure' Big Jeff on Stokes Croft (not a fan of the pre-Croft days):

Actually, Jeff, it was a place many people wanted to be after dark!

(Back-on-topic points aplenty, thanks to Big Jeff's housemate being an EDL donor.)

It was The Brewhouse when it first opened, if I remember correctly. It took a lot of trade from the Old England, which has never really recovered.
 
North East Anti-Fascists (NEAF) - getting organised

Over recent weeks there have been a number of discussions within the networks around North East Anti-Fascists (NEAF) over the general political situation, what is called of us and how we up our game in terms of addressing the increase of fascist and racist activity in the region.

On a day where we see the implosion of the English Defence League... (EDL), we will all be indulging in the odd bit of laughter, but lets not imagine that this means that we can suspend operations and archive our materials for the benefit of future generations. If anything, the opposite may be the case. Locally, intelligence received points to the flirtation between EDL and hard core Nazis of the Infidels and the National Front becoming a more serious engagement. The EDL may well see a decrease in numbers, however increasingly their brain dead membership seem to be looking at flexing their muscles. Ethnic and cultural minorities may well face increased random attack and critically our working class movement will be seen as a legitimate target. Against a backdrop of class war declared by the bosses, we see privatisation, cutbacks and the slashing of terms and conditions in the workplace. With this confusion, despair and deliberately created division is ever more evident. Toxic roots, from which fascism thrives and where our core principles of unity and solidarity face challenge.

Given this scenario, the need for NEAF to soberly consider its response becomes clear and its a back to basics approach of educate, agitate, organise that we think is needed. With this in mind, we will be looking to developing improved organisational NEAF structure, all the better to challenge fascism wherever it presents itself. We are looking at cementing our relationships with different working class political groups, community organisations and trade unions as well as a parallel process of forming active NEAF groups. Initially NEAF groups covering the North and South of the region are being set up, but this is just a start. Those seeking the combative and intelligent approach we think is necessary to deal with the far right are encouraged to join the anti-fascist struggle. We are pushing community and workplace organising as that well as direct confrontation as part of a strategy to achieve success.

So its a case of making a direct appeal to the supporters of NEAF to increase their commitment to our work. We welcome financial contributions, interventions through social media but most importantly we want readers to become activists, part of the solution in a more meaningful sense. NEAF groups will organise people on demonstrations, the production of materials and the completion of essential tasks behind the scenes. Your contribution is vital and we remind our supporters that through joining with us you are decreasing the potential for fascist violence, the number of racist attacks and enabling our side, freedom to fight against a government agenda that says we should work harder for less and be grateful.

No Pasaran is the internationally recognised slogan of anti fascism - 'They shall not pass', this far and no further. Practically this means turning the tables on both the bigots and the bosses and you can help make this happen.

Join with NEAF in the fightback now!
