priceless. They really do fall someway short of being the master race dont they?

Just as well it wasn't in Blackpool, they would have been really upset by the size of the minaret there.

 

[Mr.Bishie]

did the 2 young women in those pics get away safe do you know bishie?

The lad in the blue hoodie was nicked. The girl trying to help after being assaulted by plod wasn't nicked.

well that was fun. fash seriously outnumbered. met lots of good folk. antifascist turnout difficult to gauge as it was spread over a 1/4 mile area against 100 fash totally surrounded for their own safety - 'we go where we want' my arse - with ample help from 6 police forces.

the fash are trying to talk it up as a victory. information and photos say otherwise. good brief account and pics:

How on earth can that be seen as any result for the fash?
Tiny turnout
Only able to march because of massive police presence
Hidously outnumbered
Zero welcome from the locals

 

[editor]

They were truly humiliated. It was a tiny turnout surrounded on all sides by a huge presence of protesters who didn't want them in their city. No one gave a fuck about their racist message. No one was interested.

Back to Essex, boys.

diddy man there, looking rather fucked off,

there must come a point after 2-3 years of this, that you think, you know what, maybe we are wrong and it's not worth spunking all my cash on coaches beer and coke just to get laughed at

 

[malatesta32]

diddyfiddler is on the short video here when they got bricked in the alley.

Is it a disability hate crime to loathe these idiots
" they wouldnt dare build a mosque in mecca"
I'm sorry you cant take your complaint about your march being banned to the court of human rights as your iq is barely that of spinach let alone a hamster. so you dont get human rights try evolving

 

[UhOhSeven]

That link about the Brighton Pavilion/mosque made me laugh a lot, so their march wasn't completely without worthwhile output.

Indeed, it's incredible. But Fascism hardly relies upon sound logical argument and cold facts.

Remember Hitler was still talking of final victory even as the Russians were approaching Berlin.

Pavillion comment is hilarous.

Mind, they have previous form when it comes to misidentification of buildings as mosques:

http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/201...ommy-robinson-twitter-hash-tag_n_1427845.html

On Sunday night, EDL leader Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, also known as Tommy Robinson, tweeted a complaint about a picture of a "mosque" on the Twitter front page (it was actually the Taj Mahal), highlighting the image as another example of #creepingsharia.

If only I had the skills to produce an arse or elbow style 'Mosque or not?' internet quiz to troll these fuckers with. It's have to include iced gems, onions, a police helmet etc.

 

[malatesta32]

maybe a new thread for 'wrong mosques'?

 

[sim667]

My student who went for a day out on the pier the same days has just been telling me all about the "EDFL" march

 

[likesfish]

The problem is you think the EDL and mates are a proper political group.
Then they prove to be a bunch of idiots

Sorry, this ones better:

there's some amusing footage doing the rounds on facebook of some fash being hit square on the noggin by a hardback book

 

[malatesta32]

they have had enormous difficulty spinning this one. the footage of em shitting it, being battered, hit with crates, hiding behind plod etc. not good PR for em. and despite all precautions, sussex plod still fucked it up.

 

[starfish]

£700,000 was the cost according to South East Today tonight. 7 hundred fucking grand. That'll be my council tax bill going up next year. Hopefully, it will be the last time we see them down here.

There's now a political shit storm between Brighton Labour & the Greens as to who made the mistake of having it where it was. Sussex plod fucked up there. They're good at fucking up.

I can see this event being banned.

I'm against having a march banned, but I'd say it makes sense to downsize the occasion to match the probable number of people who are going to turn up.

I'd suggest that they have their next march in some little village in Essex somewhere. Most of them won't have so far to travel then, too.

 

[Mr.Bishie]

Failing a ban, let the fucking fash cunts pay the fucking bill.

Failing that, let them come & march, but without fucking plod protection.

Wankers.
