‘Major action’ by fascist ‘Hard Men’ in Leeds

West Yorkshire Antifascists | 28.09.2008 11:09 | Anti-racism | Sheffield

For the first time in ages, Tony White has bravely gone into Leeds city centre in broad daylight! 'Big T' said he felt safe with Kate McDermody's bodyguard's strong arms around him.

How sweet!
How sweet!

'Wigan Mike' bravely takes down a note from the Common Place door
'Wigan Mike' bravely takes down a note from the Common Place door


A few days ago ageing fascist nobody ‘Wigan Mike’, ousted fuhrer of the laughably-named ‘Aryan Strike Force’, went over to Leeds to meet up with Tony White. White, a longstanding nazi with mental health problems, has something of a chequered history to say the least, and when he has not been in prison, has spent recent years in the political wilderness, ostracized by his fellow fascists for being a police informer (if only they knew the half of it!) White, like many in the orbit of the ‘British People’s Party’ has also been linked to child pornography, in his case to distributing it.

It is an indication of just how desperate the BPP and their allies are that they are now willing to work with White again. Kevin Watmough, still supposed leader of the BPP (despite Kate McDermody clearly running the show), hates White’s guts, but has not been averse to exploiting him in the past. White, who vacillates between being a nazi and pretending to be Jewish, depending on whom he’s talking to, and whether or not he’s in court, is obviously too stupid to have much of a clue as to what’s going on. No excuses for White though, he’s a nasty piece of work whose had his last chance of retirement.

‘Wigan Mike’ is another dumpling Kate McDermody is exploiting to shore up her squalid political ambitions. We hear she’s been slagging of RVF big boy Ade Brookes, who seems to have twigged to the fact that he’s one of the people doing the dirty work for “my demo” as McDermody calls the BPP demo in Leeds on October 18th, while she prances around protected by the cops.

After so many years as a political nobody, even on the lunatic fringe of British fascism, unwanted even by the pot-bellied oafs that make up the BNP ‘security team’, Wigan Mike’ is enjoying acting as McDermody’s personal ‘security’ guard. She’s already got him nicked once on weapons charges, but he openly relishes the idea of going to jail. Perhaps Tony White has told him just how much fun it is living with the other grasses and nonces on the various ‘protection wings’ he’s been on.

Dum and Dumber were hobnobbing round Leeds the other day, and seeming as the Common Place (a rented ‘social centre in Leeds the Fash seem to think is Antifa Central) was closed, as it invariably is midweek, they decided to claim the greatest victory for British fascism since Sid Williamson bravely put a leaflet through the letterbox of Brighton’s ‘Cowley Club’. The Daring Duo had their photos taken outside the closed door of the Common Place (what courage), and then (gasp), they took down a note that had been left on the door! Oh, and they also claimed to have visited a ‘red shop’ round the corner where the staff claimed to know nothing about Antifa – Hardly surprising, since the shop the idiots visited was most probably a nearby piercing studio, which just happens to be called ‘Red’!

Mike also makes grandiose claims about the pair of them stomping round the Calls Lane/Lower Briggate area in “full skin racial gear”. What, you were wearing Harringtons? The sight of two shaven-headed men in Harrington jackets and DM’s would hardly raise an eyebrow in Leeds’ Gay quarter, particularly with the ‘tache Tony is sporting! Why don’t you just come out of the closet Mike?

Thanks for the pics anyway (your personal security is amazing), but if you really do want to meet up sometime, can we suggest that

1) Unlike you nazis, most of us work midweek

2) The Common Place is often closed and is not a hangout favoured by militant antifascists.

3) Let us know you’re coming. Leeds is just a little bigger than Wigan and we wouldn’t want to miss you.

4) Or post up some contact details and we’ll pop over to see you.

We’ll see you on October 18th, if not before, and we’ll see how much you and Tony are smiling then.

SMASH THE BPP – NO NAZIS ON THE STREETS OF LEEDS!
SATURDAY 18TH OCTOBER, 11.00AM
HMV, LANDS LANE, LEEDS CITY CENTRE

'Hard'?!

28.09.2008 15:45

So that is the BFF's 'Hard Man'?! LOL! Just looks like an ageing baldie who hasn't grown up yet! If he's hanging about with Tony White he must be a wrong 'un.

I heard UVF Steroid Queen Johnny Adair couldn't stand the company of his missus after he got out. Apparently he couldn't wait to get banged up again. I'm not sure whether TW has found love at last with Mike or if he's just desperate to get back to his old cell mate on Armley's nonce wing.

And there was me think that balloon and stuffed bunny he was carrying on St Valentine's Day was for Evil Carol. Obviously I was wrong.

Tony White and his pathetic joker mate are nothing to do with real nationalism. They are state assests as all true activ patriots know so its no surprise to see them cosying up to Big Kate these days. Ever wondered why her blog is down for days on end it s cos shes too busy having secret meetings with the old bill. The red scum wouldn't know a true nationalism if it hit them in the face and one day little boys it will.

Not! White is well known in Leeds as a skulking coward that hides behind the cops! Everytime one of us sees him he's got a different tale to tell. Now we know he's back in the game that won't wash anymore though, so we WILL be making contact with him, and you hard man.

It's weird enough that nazi trolls come on here, thinking that antifascists are so gullible to believe misinfo but for blatant fat ugly BPP cunts to grace these webpages suggests they have well and truly lost their marbles.

No, they didnt take the piss out of Antifa.

All it takes to send these hard nobheads running is a few giggling girls calling them mingers and pervs, and they flee down the street.

I must find the address of the joke shop, so I can purchase some ithcing powder to make "itchbombs" to chuck at the scum.

So those tradecraft lessons paid off and you finally managed to crack Antifa security and obtained...

...publically available contact information.

...which was taped to the front door.

Was it implied that the whole of your shitty org was going to be under security risk because Mike ripped the note of the door?

Did anyone say that? He simply stated the reason for looking at the note.

Also, good job on Antifa sending TWO of your red comrades to a load of NS on the bus and then having them run their little commie legs off. What a well thought out plan, you really are on the brainy side of the political fence.

In their ghetto

Yeah, nazis do make a bad smell on Indymedia, but they seem to confine themselves to threads which are essentially about THEM. They're obviously a bit short of the wit or knowledge to contribute elsewhere. Their distinctive style of ignorance shows them up for what they are and a collection of their postings would make a very persuasive anti-fascist flyer, I think.

What's sad that some antifa people ape this dismal, ignorant style. Terms such as "cunt", "fat" and "ugly" are bigoted, sexist, nazi-speak and make antifa and fascists seem indistinguishable from each other to the casual reader. You make yourselves look like just another bunch of bone-heads issuing threats inside a putrid wee capsule in which you're both locked.

PLEASE THINK:

(1) Does this sort of thing make anyone want to join you in turning up to oppose the fash? It turns me off, for a start. I don't want to stand together with people who think "cunt" is a term of abuse and "fat" or "ugly" are valid criticisms of anyone. I'm fat and ugly myself.

(2) How would many of the people fascists hate and would like to kill or harm react to your attitudes? People fleeing persecution, war and violence in other parts of the world, for example. Would they see you as their supporters and draw strength from solidarity? I doubt it.

Some readers are so thick they can' spot the fash from the antifash. Generally the homophobic language is being used by fascist trolls take the piss out of other fash or out of antifascists. As for the use of the word 'cunt', why the fuck this is considered anymore offensive than words such as 'bollocks', 'prick', 'knob', 'wanker' 'bastard' or just about any other swearword, is lost on most of us (male and female) living in the real world and not in middle-class liberal PC land. That however, is a debate for another thread.

We're not as thick as you as to tell display on a state monitored guestbook that we're gonna turn up at such and such a place to have a fight with you boneheads, and believe me, if we see Tony, don't worry, we'll certainly be having a few words with him. Otherwise, we'll keep an eye out for you on the 18th.

If the poster I was criticising actually has a cunt then I'm surprised -and apologise to her.

As for "fat" and "ugly", how the fuck does that invalidate someone's attitudes or views? Slim, fit nazis are OK, then, are they? Now, if only that Field Marshall Goering had cut down on the booze and taken more exercise, just think of all those people who wouldn't have died in gas chambers!
