Fascist EDL try to confront SWP protesters in Leeds

Martin Smith | 11.09.2010 20:29

Today a group of activists from the SWP descended on Leeds to stage a protest against the British Army at a recruitment office.

We are very pleased with the turn-out with close to a hundred members and supporters turning out for the event.

Like all of our demos all went peaceful up until a group of 20-30 EDL shown up, the EDL members hurled abuse, waved the Israeli flag, chanted ;God save the Queen' and threw bottles at our peaceful protest.

That was until members of our protest charged towards them and confronted the racist, Nazi, Islamophobic, Zionist, Patriot, Imperialist, Combat 18, NF, BNP, UKIP, KKK, Loyalist, English Defence League who then had to be escorted away by police for their own protections.

In short the EDL fascists failed to disrupt our peaceful of over 200 Socialist Worker Party activists.

No party sam!

whilst on our way to leeds to confront the fascist/rascist edl we happened to encounter a mini bus full who where in the process of attacking abdul smiths confectionary store in the centre of batley- now for those who are not in the know-abdul as been at the forefront of providing the local muslim community with the latest halal friendly confectionary- now these rascist edl'ers have taken offence at the fact that abdul provides jelly babies with the obligatory bhurka- needless to say the fascist/rascist edl fled at the first sign of our brave comrades- no parma ham onmipizza.
