Why I love the EDL
28-02-2013 12:55
The The English Disco Lovers that is! They are reappropriating the aconym EDL as another way of undermining the admittedly miniscule EDL.
Last autumn, four London-based friends, who prefer to remain anonymous, got to talking about reappropriating the acronym EDL from the English Defence League and "putting it to better use".
It started as a joke but they soon realised that it could become a more ambitious campaign and wrote a manifesto expressing their aim to oust the existing EDL from the top of Google's search results and outdo them on FacebookThey even have a logo, a shield-shaped mirrorball, and a Latin motto: Unus Mundus, Una Gens, Una Disco (One World, One Race, One Disco).

Anonymous Nottingham gather in the Market Square, Nottingham.
Then, treking off to visit the usual suspects in tax evasion and worker exploitation.
Barclays, NatWest, Burton/perkins, Boots, Starbucks, RBS, HSBC, Santandar, BHS, etc ... oh and of course Vodafone, twice {again!!!}. Included in this demo were the Broadmarsh and Victoria Shopping Centres.
Although the security were as worried as ever, the police seemed quite mild and all was good natured. Folks included street performers in on the act.

The battles are about to begin. Council Tax becomes the new Poll Tax.

The neo fascists in power have withdrawn Council Tax benefits from1 April 2013. Councils have been given the powers to set the levels of discount to be awarded to people on low incomes. There will be great variation in these amounts. The result is that in some areas, the poor will be required to pay substantial amounts, relative to their incomes.Screw Troika, The People Rules (London) March 2nd @ 3PM Belgrave Square, London
28-02-2013 09:45
All this is the troika: an unelected government that decides on our present conditioning our future. The troika condemns dreams to death, the future to fear, life to survival. Its aims are clear: to increase our debt, impoverishing the majority and enriching a minority, to annihilate the economy, to reduce wages and rights, to destroy the social state and Portuguese sovereignty. The success of its objectives depends on our misery. If the destruction of the welfare state ensures the troika's debt financing and therefore their profits, with the destruction of the economy ensures a continuously dependent and indebted country.To this wave that destroys everything we oppose the tidal wave of our indignation and on March 2nd @ 3PM BELGRAVE SQUARE, LONDON SW1X 8PP we will fill the streets again. We demand the resignation of the government and that the people to be called to decide their lives.
