Far-Right Supporters Confront Pro-Palestinian Marchers In London

DAILY MAIL REPORTER 13th September 2009

Hundreds of people on a pro-Palestinian rally in London were met by a group of far-Right protesters holding Union Jacks as police held the two sides apart.

The supporters of the English Defence League turned up at the annual Al-Quds Day demonstration in Central London held to show support for Palestinians. There was a heavy police presence as the procession was met with a small but vocal crowd at Piccadilly Circus.

The men held a banner declaring 'March for England'. Police kept the two sides apart as the procession went past and Scotland Yard said there had been no arrests and no disorder.

Stand-off: Anti-fascist campaigners turned up at the rally to protest as well

English Defence League activists chanted 'We hate Muslims' and 'Muslim bombers off our streets', according to The Guardian. Some protesters attempting to cover their faces, sang 'English and we're proud of it'.

A group of around 30 police officers in fluorescent yellow jackets walked ahead of the procession as it snaked along Park Lane. The rally ended in Waterloo Place, just off Pall Mall.

The "far right" is against the PLO? News to me!

I sympathize with the English nationalist movement as England more than any other constituent part of the UK has been completely absorbed in the entity known as Great Britain, while Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland still retain their own existences. Unfortunately, English nationalists tend to be as "right wing" anti-Semitic as the Celtic nationalists are "left wing" anti-Semitic and there is a definite whiff of Anglo-Israel "identity" about it.

I would dearly love to see English nationalism shorn of this problem and allied with `Am Yisra'el.

The EDL are hardly fascists. I have some friends in Britain, and from what I hear, I completely sympathise; white indiginous Britons will be in a minority within our lifetime, and it is that, the death of their nation, that they fight against.

What's happening in London and elsewhere in the British Isles deserves our attention every bit or more than the "crack-down" after the sham elections in Iran, two months ago.

I would hope it fails to go this far in the United States. We're experiencing only our first overtly Socialist government, totally out of the closet and claiming falsely to be the "Center" of things. England is a lot further down the Water Closet Pipe than "the Right" here in the U.S. will tolerate.

There's not enough information from any source I know of what this uprising in England is really composed of, and it's too easy for the Eastern Establishment Republicans to buy into the Hooliganism B.S. being broadcast from inside the U.K.

An "anti-Palestinian" "far-right" mob scaring the twazzle off the bums in Parliament House (the same idiots who tried to make peace with the Nazis and later the Russian Communists) is a group I'd be proud to march with. If things are even close to being as portrayed very professionally in the following YouTube video, "Muslim Demographics" (now over 10 million hits) we are not far behind the Eurababian Curve. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-3X5hIFXYU

LOL, because holding the Union Jack, the national flag of the country is “right wing”.

On the Left are Communists, Trotskyites. The Center is Socialists. Everyone else is Extreme Right or Far Right.

Not in this case. The so called “far right” people named in the article are merely opponents of Islamic terrorism.
