EDL No Show

No Show from the EDL, up to 100 on the demo at the council house, local asian lads as well as UAF, and others keeping a lookout on entries to asian areas after a rumor fascists would march up there. Police vans all around town, police set up a site for the counter-demo away from EDL in Swanswell park, but didn't try and move people there in the end, and everyone went home for tea at 5.

EDL run by asian youth

Best bit of EDL shambles in Leicester was seeing them get off a coach, give it large,then run back onto the coach as the local asian youth ran towards them! Hilarious.

Numbers

Rising membership? (are you in the same game as prick griffin? get some subs of them quick?) you lot couldnt muster more than 1000 nationally... i couldnt give a rats ass about online shit, I'm registered with facebook but have been on their about twice in the last 2 years, I count on facebook numbers but I'm not really 'facebook'.

anyway back to the real issue.....

You came to Leicester, you shouted and you got drunk..... what else did you achieve?

The people of Leicester at best ignored you! You lose, I dont care if your online interest is increasing, you have no support on the ground. Today proved (as many of your 'new members' will probably think) that you are a mild irritation rather than anything that actually bothers people. very soon you will be reduced to the old NF, 2 men, a union flag and a dog handing out shitty leaflets in a town centre.

You have no cause, you have no support and you have no future..... you can't rejoin the bnp cos their screwed as well...... have you tried UKIP?
