Camden Fascist Pub Gloucester Arms plays "Skrewdriver" nazi music all night

Camden Anti Fash | 11.01.2010 20:07 | Anti-racism | Migration | Social Struggles | South Coast | World

The Gloucester Arms Pub on Leighton Road Camden has been the subject of protests following the decision by landlord John Coyne to let neo nazi group the Jobbik party hold meetings there. The Jobbik Party are closely linked to the BNP and have armed members and ties to Serbian paramilitaries and UDA. Locals have complained of hardcore porn and skinhead music played until 6 - 7am.

The Camden New Journal covered a protest at the pub [called by Camden Anarchists] when local people found out about the nazi meetings. The pub, a former staunch IRA pub has been taken over by John Coyne who told the CNJ and anti racists that the could "go whistle".
Local people have described the pub as a "dump" and have said that the biggest drinkers in there are the landlord and his "rottweiler wife".

Last night they kept neighbours awake with loud music from a Skrewdriver CD until 6 - 7 am.

The walls of the pub outside are daubed with "BNP out" and "Close BNP Pub".

Chuck em out!

"skinhead music"? Fair enough say they are playing skrewdriver, but that is hardly representative of skin music.

I can appreciate you didn't do it on purpose, but try to think of the language you are using when putting up items.

Correction: Quote: "Locals have complained of hardcore porn and skinhead music played until 6 - 7am."

I think they meant hardcore "punk" and skinhead music. Not hardcore porn and skinhead music. Camden Town is also the centre of the UK music scene and there are many other loud music venues in the area.

This pub is nowhere near Camden Town. It's at the north (i.e. furthest from Camden Town) end of Kentish Town, and it's a residential area with a large council estate as well as private houses. There's a lot more to the borough of Camden than Camden Town!

The reason it's not razed to the ground are the adjoining council flats

13.01.2010 14:06

There is a block of council flats right next door to the pub. The tenants are as sick of the noise, nazis, pervs and late night drunks as anyone else...and any attack will affect them too so please THINK before doing anything.

What if pub funding terror and hate?

13.01.2010 14:16


The UFF run by Johnny Adair in Ulster was formed from the National Front. Adair now runs around Europe with nazi skinhead groups. Very worrying...we don't want this in Camden. : (

The photo below shows Johnny Adair and friend Nazi Nick showing off their tattoos.

Pub is a shitehole with sticky carpets and no women apart from landlords guardog

13.01.2010 15:16

Cheap, tacky, dirty, horrible place with minging carpet, no customers and bin bags up at the window. The landlord falls asleep in the bar pissed out of his head with the music still on until the morning.
There is an old TV hanging almost off the wall where he watches porn while his ugly wife grimaces on the doorstep, while guarding the doorway to the pub.
The customer that goes in there is a drunken Ulsterman who is usually so drunk he always has one eye shut and one eye closed.
Tempting place to go...not.

Links between ulster loyalism & british racists go back 80 years-pub link both

17.01.2010 21:12

Anyone confused about the link between Ulster Loyalists and British racists should know that the links go back 80 years.
Combat 18 have worked alongside the UDA and C Company of the UFF. The National Front and the BNP have links to all of these.

The Camden Racist Pub and landlord John Coyne has links to all of these.....chuck him out and tell him to fuck off back to Ulster if he doesn't like multi racial, multi cultural, anti fascist Camden.

Skrewdriver lyrics on the IRA

26.01.2010 09:20

Skrewdriver wrote this song about the IRA :

On the streets of Ulster, the battle rages on
British people fighting for their land
Fought in two world wars for us, fought and died for
Britain
Gotta help them, support the Red Hand
Smash! Smash! The IRA!
Smash! Smash! The IRA!
Remember the victims of their bombs
Gotta change our policies and hang the IRA
Let the army deal with them their way
Corrupt politicians and snivelling left wing scum
Are quite content to let them get away
Come on, Ulster!


They are nazi scum who hate the Irish, Blacks, Asians and Arabs ...evryone in fact aprt from themselves.
