NF tossers hold shit demo.

On Saturday the roving Burberry convention that is the National Front tried (unsurprisingly) to drum up some cheap publicity for themselves at the expense of the London bombing victims. The ‘Anti Islam’ march achieved absolutely nothing other than confirm their status as the saddest bunch of fuckwits on the far right.

NF marches are not exactly a vibrant affair these days. Back in the 70’s and early 80’s a National Front march would stretch from Parliament square to Victoria station with up to 8,000 members and supporters accompanied by 3 or 4 drumming bands. The hundred or so Nazis that shuffled from Victoria to Embankment today were barely noticeable aside from the 2-300 cops that accompanied them. Led by brain-dead ‘Activities Organiser’ Terry Blackham the master race were neither loud nor intimidating with Muslims on the route of the march laughing at their pitiful anti Islam slogans and passing tourists stopping to take their photo in front of the march.

One thing that is encouraging is the NF’s total failure to grow or make any capital out of the recent events in London whatsoever. This demo was no bigger than the last Remembrance Day embarrassment. There were no representatives of Britain’s other far right groups (they all hate each other, thank fuck!) nor was there any new faces. The demo was largely made up of the same 80 losers that restarted the marching strategy back in Dover in the late nineties. Most pathetic of all was the chanting; ‘Rule Britannia’ would reach its first chorus before petering out into the silence that dominated most of the demo. ‘No Surrender to the IRA’ was louder and aptly demonstrated their intelligence as the provos have been on ceasefire for ages and have nothing in common with the suicide bombers at all. The master race must however be congratulated on what has to be the most lacklustre and tuneless rendition of ‘God Save the Queen’ that I have ever heard. Republicans everywhere should encourage this kind of patriotism as it can only further their cause.

The best laugh of the day was however reserved for the beginning before they had even started. While assembling, the gathered Nazis had their spirits roused by a tooting horn from a passing car. Hurray! They all cheered only to turn round and see a black motorist extending his middle finger from a passing car. Even the cops laughed.
