- Reuters news agency are reporting that English Defence League financier & strategist Alan Lake is now being formally investigated by the Norwegian police in order to verify if he was an ideological influence on the mass-murdering Norwegian terrorist Anders Breivik (see: http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/10/03/uk-norway-killings-idUSLNE79204Z20111003).
- The Guardian have formally investigated and independently confirmed Alan Lake's authorship of a “Final Solution” blueprint targeting the entire British Muslim population along with anyone perceived to be sympathetic towards them, including death threats against British Prime Minister David Cameron, Deputy PM Nick Clegg and the Archbishop of Canterbury (see: http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2011/jul/30/alan-lake-english-defence-league). You can see a screenshot of Lake's horrifying “Final Solution” here: http://www.edlnews.co.uk/edl-news/alan-lake-his-final-solution and here: http://1millionunited.org/blogs/blog/2010/06/03/alan-lakes-edl-final-solution/.
- Alan Lake was interviewed by the Daily Mail in 2010 and openly discussed his involvement with the EDL as a financier and strategist (see: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/moslive/article-1238213/This-England-On-trail-English-Defence-League.html).
- Channel 4 News, describing Alan Lake as “the EDL's chief financier” during their investigation of the EDL's connections with Anders Breivik, have confirmed that Lake was interviewed on Norwegian television in April 2011 (see: http://www.channel4.com/news/edls-connections-with-breiviks-norwegian-cell). In that interview, Lake confirmed that he has funded the EDL.
- Video footage is available of Alan Lake attending a meeting in London with senior EDL leaders Stephen Yaxley-Lennon (aka “Tommy Robinson”), Kevin Carroll and Roberta Moore, in a video released on 20 March 2011 (see: http://exposingon.tumblr.com/post/8430526131/alan-lake-at-an-edl-meeting-in-london-with-tommy).
--- Roberta Moore has direct links to convicted terrorists in the United States whose organisation has been formally designated as a “terrorist group” by the FBI and who are banned from entering Israel (see: http://edlnews.co.uk/the-leadership/roberta-moore).
--- Roberta Moore was photographed personally escorting Yaxley-Lennon while he was disguised as a rabbi before he gave a speech at the EDL's demonstration in London on 3 September 2011 (see: http://edlnews.co.uk/edl-news/edl-leader-agrees-with-breiviks-opinions-threatens-britains-entire-muslim-population). During that speech, Yaxley-Lennon publicly accused “every single Muslim” of collective guilt and publicly made a direct threat of EDL-led retribution against the entire British Muslim population (see: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8j7IX_5a_9M&feature=share).
--- Yaxley-Lennon is also on record as stating that he agrees with Anders Breivik’s opinions (see: http://theforeigner.no/pages/news/edl-leader-breivik-dared-to-come-forward-with-his-opinions/).
--- More information about Yaxley-Lennon’s disturbing attitudes is available here: http://www.edlnews.co.uk/edl-news/edl-leader-continues-to-reveal-his-disturbing-attitudes, http://www.pickledpolitics.com/archives/13806, https://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2011/11/488153.html.
- Alan Lake has been instrumental in facilitating the EDL's alliances with Far-Right groups outside the UK. He also played a pivotal role in facilitating the EDL's links to the American anti-Muslim blogger Pamela Geller (who was cited multiple times in Anders Breivik's 1500-page manifesto and was in direct contact with a violent Norwegian who sounds suspiciously similar to Breivik: http://www.islamophobiatoday.com/2011/07/30/pamela-geller-edits-post-to-conceal-violent-rhetoric-in-email-from-norway/). Lake even personally attended the protest against the so-called “Ground Zero Mosque” which Geller organised in New York last year; Yaxley-Lennon also attempted to accompany Lake to the protest but was prevented from doing so by the American authorities.
