tower hamlets,the edl’s greatest moment? doubt it

By Emma Peel

so the edl are going to tower hamlet’s on the third of september they’ve hyped it up massively, it’s going to be the biggest,the best,they’re going into the “lion’s den” etc,etc. except it’s not going to plan,firstly theresa may has stepped in and stopped them marching,so now it’s a static,secondly it’s seems the edl are plagued with a lot of armchair warriors,happy to spout stuff on facebook and online in general but when called upon to go to demos and show their support…erm “sori tommy i’m painting the fence/washing the car/counting the ceiling tiles”thirdly it seems that the great british public just don’t seem to like them,though they’re at a loss to think why. 

Well let’s pause for a moment and consider why the great british public seem to dislike them. let’s start with their general demeanour and attitude,for you’r average edl’er if you dont support them then you’re a traitor to “r cuntery” (our country-for the uninitiated) and if you’re against them and therefore a traitor then you get verbally abused and your personal details put on their pages so one of their brethrin can come around to your place and give you a good talking to,if you dare to show them being wrong with facts,the same thing happens,then there’s their behaviour at their “peaceful” demos,what tends to happen is that they rock up at the town they’re “peacefully protesting” at and proceed to get drunk,abuse the local population,cause havoc for the police,the council,residents and business owners by generally acting like thugs and smashing up the place,which makes it even more incredible that during the riots they went out in force to “protect” our streets,the police claimed that their “protection” took away vital police resources from where they were needed to deal with them,it seems the only thing people need protecting from is the edl themselves,and lastly and most importantly is their leader-Tommy Robinson aka Stephen Lennon, a man that spouts so much shite he needs a nappy over is mouth,most people can tell when someone is insincere and they do not like it,and this man is as insincere as they come,he is a publicity seeking media whore,if it wasn’t the edl,he’d be fronting something else that would get him press attention,he neither cares about the edl cause or the supporters,he’s prooved this by ripping them off at every opportunity,he takes advantage of the poor and the outcast by telling them it’s the muslims fault they’re poor,that they have all their jobs,stealing their benefits etc,etc then flogging them over priced crap and pocketing the cash,and this is why the public in general do not like the edl.

anyway back to the topic in hand,tower hamlets,for a while now edl demo attendance has been dwindelling,they claim to have thousands on demos when it’s only hundreds and at a recent demo they claimed to have hundreds when an edl member who was actually there bemoaned the fact that fewer than 50 people had turned up,fewer than 50!!!

this is from supposedly britain’s biggest street movement,today the edl admin on their facebook page have been asking their followers to vote on whether they should attend tower hamlets or not,this is because a london newspaper has asked their readers to vote,and the response has been mixed,from sycophantic yes’,people questioning whether the demos’ have any effect,through to local division admin whipping up their members into a frenzy trying to boost the numbers,all this points to one thing,the edl is dying on it’s arse.

I could take this opportunity to ask Tommy to realise what is happening and bow out gracefully,but I’d be wasting my breath,instead I’m gonna make myself a nice cup of rose tea,have a fag and sit back and watch it implode.

peace and love to you all
