English Defence League supporters publicly come out of the closet

Congratulations to the gay men of EDL who have publicly expressed their gayness, their bravery should be commended given the endemic homophobia of the far right.

Yesterday a Facebook group appeared named "Lets Get All The Gay Men In One Group! " adorned with the Gay Pride Rainbow flag, containing numerous English Defence League and Casuals United supporters.

It is now hoped that the next step will be them getting over their Islamophobia problem. Anyway, one step at a time..

Ho ho fucking ho
Obviously this laff wasn't set up by a gay man or woman who might not think it's so funny to have their sexuality used as a political weapon against fascists, racists and pseudo-racists.

Not very well thought out huh?

Now who would have imagined that some humourless right-on troll would get arse-faced about this? Each to their own I suppose, I stumbled across it and thought it was fucking hilarious despite my bisexuality. But maybe by being bisexual I am a traitor to the cause, right?
