A town famous for honouring dead British soldiers returning from Afghanistan reacted defiantly today to news that a controversial Islamic group is to march through its streets.
Islam4UK - which calls itself a 'platform' for extremist movement al-Muhajiroun - plans to parade through Wootton Bassett, in Wiltshire, in the coming weeks.
The group's website says the event is being held 'not in memory of the occupying and merciless British military' but of the Muslims its says have been 'murdered in the name of democracy and freedom'.
Leader Anjem Choudary said today the protest, involving 500 people, would be peaceful one, with 'symbolic coffins' being carried to honour Muslim victims of the conflict.
But the walk will not coincide with the return of a dead soldier's body, added Mr Choudary, 42, a former lawyer from East London.
Hundreds of people line the market town's High Street every week to watch servicemen's bodies being driven through from RAF Lyneham.
Family and friends of the fallen, shopkeepers, and British Legion members wait in all weathers to pay silent tribute to a cortege of Union flag-draped coffins.
Ex-mayor and councillor Chris Wannell said today: 'We don't do what we do at Wootton Bassett for any political reason at all, but to pay our respects to those who have given their lives for our freedom.
'We are a Christian country and a traditional old English market town who honour very much our Queen and country. We obey the law and pay respects to our servicemen who protect our freedom.
'If this man has any decency about him he will not hold a march through Wootton Bassett.'

Well, that's the question, isn't it?
They should march!
Make noise, get people upset... maybe at some point they will have had enough.
It has happened in Europe before... with a little luck...
What these vermin are calling a ‘march’.....I call a “target-rich environment”.
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find only things evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelogus
Nicely worded...“target-rich environment”.
The English loyalists need to turn up with 2X4s and beat the hell out of these Islamists.
They, like ourselves, will never get to the showdown stage until they leave the back down stage. And with Islam, it’s going to take a showdown.
exactly.
These moosie bastards have been targeting Christians for long enough.
Time for a few i.e.d.’s to find a few of them and a nice march by adhearents of the “religion of peace” may just be a great starting point.

SPAM isn't :)
I would have about 10 yobs walk in front of them and spray wd 40 on the street in front of them, then video and post the fun for all to watch.
The 42nd Scottish Black Watch Regiment should march through downtown Mecca with their pipes a `wailin` Ayeeeeee
The BNP & EDL already have wind of this atrocity & making plans to stop this nonsense...if goes ahead it’s gonna be REALLY ugly & messy!
Better yet a herd of well fed swine.
PC governments will NEVER do what it takes to rid the world of the mud-slime infestation. It will be left to the individuals to take matters into their own hands or suffer conversion to their hate cult and forced to read their comic book for retards.
As individuals have lost the right to protect themselves in so many countries the outcome is sort of known. We just don’t know when.
Doesn’t anyone in the UK have a gun anymore?
Outrage as Muslim extremists hijack war heroes' town Wootton Bassett
