Nice Ones UK!

NiceOnes UK (NOUK) was formed in 2010 by a group of UK based people of differing political, racial, religious views and persuasions to counter the perception that all Muslims are extremists and represent a subversive Fifth column in the UK.

NiceOnes UK (NOUK) was formed in 2010 by a group of UK based people of differing political, racial, religious views and persuasions to counter the perception that all Muslims are extremists and represent a subversive Fifth column in the UK.

We may not agree on everything but we are all committed to equality in the UK and united in our efforts to expose and challenge extremist groups and their warped ideologies including hardline interpretations of Islam in the UK.

I like this a lot. I am not Chinese but I would still like to join. An excellent choice I think.

(looks up) Nice to see that certain sections are so obsessed with me they have to use my name rather than their own. Short answer is yes. Anyone you'd like us to have a pop at? EDL, NWI, English Shield Wall, you name 'em, we'll have a look.

The correct terms

07.04.2011 21:12

I don't think anybody should be referring to the current situation as a crisis. There's lots of work to be done but to refer to the problems surrounding NOUK as a crisis is just being over dramatic and not beneficial to the movement. If we are to challenge the hypocrisy of many current anti-fascists, the bigotry of the far right and the hatefullness of fundamental Islamic institutions then we need to be clear about a few things.

1. We must not over-indulge in branding everyone else as alien to our beliefs.

2. There needs to be a great deal of looking into our own equal oportunity policies as a cover for racism and homophobia.

3. A solution that requires all participants to chip in and to be aware of outside interference.

4. A ban on all peaceful actions that will in the long run lead to envy.

5. Removal of the last report.

6. Create awareness of the system.

7. Ensure that the system is beyond the reach of those who wish to destroy it.

8. Approach those unfamiliar with the movement with gestures of peace followed by acts of bravery and intelligence.

9. Under no circumstances ever reveal the enemies' details to the Police (unless in a state of emergency)

10. Be proud.

Without these ten points the problems (NOT CRISIS) we face will only grow and in time will become greater than any movement we can create to challenge them. These points are CRUCIAL.

This may seem harsh to some but trust me we can win this.

Never give up. Never sit down. Never cry.

Emotion.

Niceone UK /Charlie Flowers say

"If you are proud of Britain then you are a Patriot. There needs to be a clear and resounding voice to oppose extremism, hate, racism and bigotry no matter where it comes from, thus putting all these extremists into retirement.

Our forefathers fought and died in Two World wars to defend Equality, Freedom and Democracy. No Government, political or religious group has the right to subvert or take that away"


What misguided shite! What do you mean "proud of Britain", why should I or anyone else feel obliged to be proud of Britain? I mean I was born here, but most my friends weren't, I'm proud of mine and others achievements but I not proud of the bloody colonial and imperialist wars Britain has been involved with including Afghanistan and Iraq. And why limit yourself just to Britain, there's a whole world out there that I have affinity with, and empathise with the struggles of people - many of which I doubt you and your mates will see as patriotic.

And stop using the "two world wars" as if it was some heroic fight, it wasn't, it was a slaughter on both sides, with the ruling elites still maintain a control of "democracy". Patriotism was used then to mobilise ordinary working class people to fight for the interests of the capitalists, it's being defended again by "soft groups" like NiceOne UK and EDL to bolster their definition of Britain.

Truth is that patriotism is and has always been a lie. Yes, be proud of where you come from, feel affinity with those around you, but promoting Patriotism will always lead to being led by others to further the interests of the state and not the benefit of all of us.

Shut up you deluded fool no one is to blame for England's past except those who took part in any wrong doings. That's like blaming all Germans for the holocaust. Take your guilt ridden shit and stick it up your arse. England for all colours, all faiths. Don't like people being proud of where they come from then fuck off to Iceland. Wanker.

Why are you people obsessed with me, when Nice Ones is actually Arry, Iain, and co? Does it make you feel good? Would you like to carry on pretending? If you do, I can help.
