EDL Coming Up North

Newcastle tourist information | 14.12.2012 22:46 | Liverpool | Wales

Edl have announced thier next two national demo's one in Manchester one in Newcastle

The Below is taken from the EDL'S main web page:

(EDL) English Defence League
6 hours ago via mobile
We have just heard that despite objections from the local community against the plans to turn the iconic and historical building 'Benwell Towers' into a Muslim only private school, Newcastle upon Tyne city council have within the last hour ignored the objections and have approved the plan's.

Yet again we see the people elected by the people ignoring their constituents and favouring the islamic community. We know the North East EDL urged the council to listen to the community and reject these plan's but to no avail.

Therefor, we now announce that the second national demo of 2013 (after Manchester) will be held in the city of Newcastle upon Tyne.

Last time the edl came to newcastle the uaf made agreements with the police to march into a police kettle in response a group north east against racism sprung up to oppose the edl and not march into a police kettle

lets hope for simler this time

northern demos

the fash have had better luck in newscastle and the north east than they have in most places. manchester will see them come unstuck. they have very little support there. they are pretty fragmented already but they have threatened a comeback next year. no doubt it will be as successful as the year of the infidel which saw the infidels disappear. fuckbugles the lot of em! happy holidays!

Apathy in Newcastle

16.12.2012 17:51

Newcastle and its neighbour Sunderland do seem to have a poor turn out of Anti-Fash, which seems to the outsider to becoming a bit of a fave area for EDL and indeed SDL outings.

I think it would be a major blow for the fash if they "loose" this stomping ground.

The fash come in on bus and train to stamp the north east as their ground.

I think we should organise mass resistance to the EDL in Newcastle and stand alongside our northern comrades.

Lets reclaim Newcastle from the fash and strike a major blow to the EDL campaign.

Thoughts?

There's plenty of antifascists in Newcastle, I know plenty of the canny wee lads and lasses. Let's get a big turn out from everywhere though. I'll be there with fucking bells on.

Away the Lads


They shal not pass

This public news board isnt the place to organise but I'm up for this.

Newcstle aint got much in the way of anti fash from what I have seen and a look up on youtube shows a slanging match between boneheads and from what I can tell UAF at a shopping centre with a few village bobbies keeping thr peace.

Lets get this idea out that we aint gonna let our northern cities be a breeding ground for the fash.

Newcastle has a proud history fighting facism they ran Mosley's black shirts out of town. It saddens me to think that the fash now have support with little resistance up there.

When we know for sure that this is a goer lets network the event and dedicate twitter accounts to it. Students and trade unions peeps get organising with your circles.

The more who are prepared to reclaim this town from the fash the better, lets put a massive show of unity on and place a massive dent in the EDL's ego.

They shall not pass.

it looks like fatty biggs has split off from the malfunctioning NF to form his own Northern Patriotic Front and they are the ones getting behind the anti-mosque stuff in sunderland etc. they want to hang out with infidels which NF started doing a while back but then they had a fight between them. scroll down here:

 http://malatesta32.wordpress.com/2011/11/13/remembrance-round-up/

the infidels has fizzled out pretty much through lack of leadership. snowy is clueless. liverpool infidels - pedo pinkham and other partial wits - hang out with CXF who are in a sorry state. watmough is pictured with biggs on the NPF website as is that fucking tattoo faced cretin who thinks its still 1980 alongside the usual incontinents.

northern antifash need to mobilise as they will see any unopposed appearance as a much needed victory and morale boost. i totally agree with bash the fash a large scale mobilisation is needed. the EDL may be fucked but we still need to be there to oppose the far right grupuscules.

Islam is not a threat because 9/11 and 7/7 were inside jobs!

17.12.2012 12:55

The EDL are totally stupid to claim that Islam is a threat because most people now know that the 9/11 and 7/7 terrorist attacks were inside jobs carried out by the British and American governments. If the EDL had any sense they would demonstrate against the real terrorists who are the UK and USA governments.
See this interview with Tony Farrell an ex intelligence analyst for South Yorkshire police :  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhnUsDmLbYQ

US and UK governments are the real terrorists


9/11 and 7/7 were NOT inside jobs!

17.12.2012 17:50

And what do you mean 'most people' ?
Where are you getting these figures from? What a loud of pap!
I think most people in the UK do not believe these were inside jobs.
Most people think were by the people who were identified as terrorists, you know - the ones that pre-recorded videos saying "I did it"

I thought you said that the EDL were'nt a threat? That they were a 'damp squib'?
You said that they are nothing. That they are dead. And now you are saying we need a large scale mobilisation? Just which side of the fence are you on?

stoopid


Stoopid troll

Blatantly an EDL troll shit stirring.
Yes the previous poster claiming 9/11 etc was an inside job is +wrong, obviously, however it is clear to all except an EDL troll trying to blacken his name which side Maletesta is on, Malatesta's post makes his opinion clear - the EDL are falling apart, however to not oppose them in numbers in Newcastle (or anywhere else for that matter) would give them the stimulation to improve and regroup - thinking that there are areas of Britain where they are welcome. Opposing them, in when they are weak, in massive numbers wherever they (you) raise their (your) ugly heads gets the message through that they are shit and opposed by vast numbers of people.
Also - as Malatesta rightly says - there are small offshoot groups split from the EDL. These groups might be small but they are made up of some of the worst Fascists in Britain today (as, I suspect, you know). They need to be opposed also - to make sure they stay in the dungheap where they belong.

IHTF


stoopid indeed!

18.12.2012 13:36

as usual trolls fail to read the posts properly. as beating the fascists says 'if you cant destroy them when they are weak, how can you destroy them when they are strong?' they are falling to pieces, leaderless and clueless. they have finally realised they have done nothing. its the nazi shit heels in the other groups posing as patriots who are problematic.

Give it a rest mate - you sounds like a stuck record.
You keep saying the same bollox over and over for what seems like years.
Yet every week, you start off the same about how it is nearly the end for the EDL.

If it is nearly the end, then why do you need to keep saying it for a billion years?
Wouldn't it be more realistic to say, the EDL is declining. All this speak of the end is near is turning out to be untrue, because all i seem to read on indymedia for the last 12 months is you repeating the same message. So....... give it a break!

not a troll bollox


troll above!
