There was a brilliant BBC Three documentary on these guys - I'd recommend watching it before judging the group on a webpage, as it gives an in-depth look at the guys involved in it's formation.
One of them is the stereotypical racist, with the whole, "I can't be racist, my (adopted) child is half-black" defence. Because you never supported the BNP, or the National Front, you plonk?
EDIT: Why in the football section???
they're not doing for the soldiers, no soldier that ive met ( and ive met a fair few through my OTC stint at uni) wants to represented that way. if they wanna help the soldier, help the charites like help for heroesMade in Luton and that plonk with a half black daughter isn't actually a racist happens to be one of my dads best friends, all of the older men that march like 30's + are doing it for the soldiers and the extremists the younger ones are just there to fight and be racist.
dead on mate. thats exactly what they did in manchesterTaken from a Brentford Forum .....
The best description of the EDL I've heard is: "It's where people who want a fight go now they can't really fight at football". I think their 'politics' can be summed up as 'going into a area with a lot of Muslims and hoping for a punch up.' Which makes the BNP look pretty sophisticated.
"From the footage I've seen, I believe their main policy is protecting the right to walk through busy shopping centres on Saturday Afternoons chanting "Ing-ER-Lund!"
have you ever seen them in action? i have first hand they are violent thugs. and to be honest you are either misguied or a thug yourself if you think that they reprensent anything else. they are the on inciting racial hatred my friend. they dont want "foreign scumbags out", they just want confrontation with minorites, why else would try and march through rushholme in manchester?, or through bradford? or tower hamlets?well the news papers make them out to be violent thugs. but that is not the case, they are simply want all of the foreign scum bags out of the country. Migrants that bring something to the country are no problem to them, its the lazy wasters that come over here and live off state benefits and the ones that come over to purely to insight racial hatred. there are enough lazy English scum bags as i t is it does not need topping up buy foreign ones as well.
i say good luck to them, some of their methods may not be very good but they are doing it for a good cause, getting rid of people like those arabs that spat at the soldiers that paraded through a city( icant remember which) is vital to the integrity of this once fine country.
the media only seem to report on the bad side of things, and granted there have been some bad things involved with them. but there are always two sides to the story. like the BNP and UKIP they serve a good purpose, but the media curropts it and makes them look like racists.
if being patriotic means your racists, then i guess i am a racist.
a lot of them are probably just in it for a scrap, but that is not what it was meant to be about.

i understand the ideas you talk about, but the way of the EDL is just about the worst way (remember the bradford riots, now imagine that across flashpoints all across the country)Yeah i have seen them in action, and i know a lot of them do it just for a scrap, which just makes them look like a gang of thugs, but for some of them, the cause is just, they march through places like that because the minority in them places are now the English with the majority being foreign. i dont condone the violence that usually occurs when they are about, but i do agree with the principles they claim to march for. i may be misguided, and maybe you are right that they are just football hooligans under a different name, but i do think there are some people that march to the purpose.
because the minority in them places are now the English with the majority being foreign.
again nothing particularly wrong with that, i defintely agree we need to change our immigration policy, ie only bring in skilled immigrants who can benefit the country as a whole. but the EDL are essentially using that nationalism to mask their racist tonesPersonally i think that they do have some sense. there arnt enough houses, university places ,benifits etc for our own population never mind the thousands of immigrants that arrive every year, in that respect i agree with them, but i dont like the way they go about it attacking muslim places of worship
but
they are fundamentally right, we cant handle any more people coming in at the present time but again they are giving nationalists a bad name
im a nationalist my house has the union jack on a wee pole in the garden, i dont attack mosques im not racist, not all nationalists are racist i just want whats best for the country
