BBC reporter Fiona Trott said that Pegida UK demonstrators in Newcastle today are (quote) "NHS workers, they are factory workers, they are self-employed people", conveniently ignoring flags of the English Defence League and of the blatantly Nazi group the National Front at the Pegida demo.

... conveniently ignoring flags of the National Front and English Defence League at the Pegida UK demo (see photos). Reporters who can be bothered to do research may recall EDL leader Tommy Robinson standing-down when he could no longer deny the EDL was festering with Nazis, while the National Front is an openly and blatantly Nazi organisation. Also pictured here is a screen-capture from Pegida UK organiser Emma Scott's social media, showing how she's been out pasting-up propaganda stickers for another hard-line Nazi group bizarrely known as the British National Socialist Movement, more commonly known as the British (sic) Movement. Despite huge and uncritical hype from the BBC, Pegida UK's Newcastle demo drew just 400 supporters, who were vastly outnumbered by the 1,000 to 2,000 counter-protestors reported by various sources.
