Wrexham: Young people tell the BNP where to go

Go Away BNP
Spot the stall
Packing up
The BNP go away
Gradually, the demonstration attracted the attention of other passers-by, who made more placards including 'SAY NO TO HOMOPHOBIA' and 'NO TO FASCISM' and acquired a rainbow peace flag. By this time there was a fluid group of around 20 or so good-humoured young people objecting to the stall and rendering the BNP all but invisible to shoppers walking down Hope Street.
In the face of this determined opposition, the BNP representatives were obviously struggling to keep their tempers and to maintain the thin veneer of respectability they had adopted. One of them advanced towards the demonstration shaking his fist menacingly and issuing threats of legal action after someone apparently called him 'Scum', but the pesky youngsters weren't intimidated by this threatening behaviour and, in the end, there was nothing for the BNP to do but to pack up the stall and do what it said on the placard.
Incidentally, the stall was campaigning for British troops to be brought home from Afghanistan.

Well, there is a voice of freedom movement gathering pace in the UK and we're going to shout you down and shut you down.
You know who we are, and we're not OAPs like the BNP.
If you want street action, then you're welcome to it. We've beaten you off the streets, seen your Martin Smith convicted for assault and we're waiting for gob almighty Bennett to get convicted for conspiracy to commit violent assault.
If you want street confrontation, you're about to meet an immovable force.
Whose streets, our streets, certainly not yours, you dirty unwashed scum.
