There is a definite link between the English Defence League and UKIP. Pictured here is Darren Marsh/Lee of the English Defence League with a UKIP sticker on his face.

This weekend the English Defence League rioted in Dudley. They are said to have smashed up a Hindu Temple [despite their links to the Hindu Defence League], been involved in a car crash, occupied residential flats of terrified tenants, thrown railings at the police, violently attacked local Muslims, fought with each other, smashed car windows, smashed shops and held the small town under siege. The shops in Dudley were all closed for the day because of the football hooligans rampage. The Zoo was closed for the day and had to be protected by extra security. The EDL have placed severed animals heads on the walls of the Dudley Central Mosque.

The EDL originally marched on Dudley because they believed that there were plans to build a "Supermosque" and that Dudley would become "Islam Village". Plans for a large Mosque have not materialised however and the Guardian Newspaper published an article describing how the EDL were wasting their time. Yet still the EDL go to Dudley and have attacked the small town's Mosque. Many of Dudley's Muslims are Sufi. The community in Dudley have counter protested against the EDL and the EDL have used this as a "reason to go back". They have said that they "will bankcrupt Dudley. The question is..are UKIP involved in what is happening in Dudley in any way? Why Dudley people keep asking. There are no plans to build a "Supermosque" so why do the EDL keep going there?
