EDL Riot In Stoke by ‘Malatesta’

Following the violence, vandalism and arrests in Stoke yesterday the EDL have very mixed feelings about what happened. Despite a strong turnout the trouble has created a lot of bad publicity and schisms amongst supporters. However, there are also serious lessons for anti-fascists.

The Loft and the BNP

19-12-2009 18:07 | Anti-racism | Nottinghamshire

The Loft on Mansfield Road in Nottingham, has recently reopened to much fanfare in indie publications like the Left Lion. Apparently the venue will serve "morally conscious" food, and "organic, fair trade and vegan wines" as well as "actively supporting and showcasing Nottingham's culture and arts scene". However, the venue appears to have been bought by none other than Finbar Bryson, widely criticised for being on the leaked BNP membership list and for his anti-Muslim racism. Has Mr Bryson really turned his back on the BNP or is he just cynically milking 'ethical' capitalism for his own benefit?
