1. EDL organiser Jeff "Baldrick" Marsh has been trolling under the guise of being a regular Indymedia user, posting defeatist comments about the protest against the EDL's Tower Hamlets fuck-up, then screen-capturing his own troll comments and re-posting them on his Casuals United blog to make it look as though some Anti-Fascists got cold feet about this one!

Facts of the situation - the EDL originally predicted they'd turn out 10,000 supporters for their "big one" in Tower Hamlets, then down-graded estimates to 2,500; the most generous estimates say (that after months of relentless hype) the EDL drew only 1000, in reality it was 700, several EDL divisions cancelled coaches due to lack of interest, and their march never even made it to Tower Hamlets. To cap it all, EDL gimps proved how much they respect free speech by attacking and sexually assaulting journalists, proved how much they respect British law by chucking bottles and fireworks at police, and yet again EDL supporters were photographed giving Nazi salutes and displaying Nazi tattoos. It's a shame the EDL were able to march at all, but either way this was a major fuck-up by the EDL.

2. In his tireless campaign to misrepresent his own screw-ups as evidence of some sort of "cunning plan" (anyone remember the EDL protests in Wales?) Jeff's also been trying to claim EDL Facebook posts about mustering in the pubs at Euston and Kings Cross were deliberate misdirection, and that serious EDL organising takes place over their mobile phone network... Jeff made his claims about the EDL phone network AFTER the NOTW phone-hacking scandal and AFTER Team Poison published dozens of EDL mobile numbers on the web... what a twat.

Finally, even IF (and it's a big "IF") the muster points published on the EDL's Facebook were misdirection, that was a plan so "cunning" that it successfully led 500 EDL supporters straight into the arms of the cops at Euston, then straight into a TSG kettle at Kings Cross. Sherlock Holmes this man is not!

It's quite hilarious to hear "Tommy" try to portray himself as a "political prisoner". He got nicked for gang brawling and gets bailed not to attend demos (which are often gang brawls if the EDL get a chance) - no big surprise, that's what the cops do! - and then he breaks bail conditions to show what a brave "martyr" he is. What a muppet - his desperate attention-seeking smacks of a man who knows he's running out of ideas and out of luck.

i think 99% of political prisoners are hilarious
I always piss myself laughing at the anarchist letters that come on indymedia - you know the ones: where they say it is a commique and call everyone 'comrade' because it sounds cool.
