EDL & Nazi Salutes

News just in:  EDL ‘respecting’ Lee Rigby by ignoring his family’s requests to stop using his name for their own racist ends and featuring the traditional Hitler salute:

But of course there is a perfectly plausible explanation …

And the Rigby family’s request completely ignored by the far right:

Crivvens! Jings! And Help Ma Boab! It was bit of a pisser weekend for the collective balloonheads of the far right and are they still smarting over it! The EDL returned to Walthamstow for the 3rd time and, just like their previous visits, it was a total embarrassment as they could hardly get more than 80 drunken violent racists together and they had to be surrounded by 100s of plod for their own protection. They were in turn surrounded by 1,000s of jubilant anti-fascists celebrating what must be the stubborn death throes of an irrelevant organisation staggering about having achieved absolutely nothing since 2009. Like an ageing and not very well liked relative in a crap care home, the EDL have generally been forgotten or ignored, until they yet again make fools of themselves or soil their linen in a fit of pique. And, of course, if the EDL are going to make complete twats out of themselves then the national media is rarely far away. This photo of a seig-heiling racist in front of a placard complaining about ‘Islamo-fascism’ has gone viral and the fact that it was VE Day makes it all the more humiliating for the EDL.

As usual, the EDL deny he is a member, but as they have never had a membership scheme this is irrelevant: he was on an EDL march so is therefore a supporter. Not only that, but it is hardly the 1st time we have seen EDL members Nazi salutin’ like here …

… and so on. We leave the rest for you to Google. Of course, the EDL will claim the man is a ‘muslamic-searchlight-hope-not-hoola-hoops-cultural-marxist-photoshop effort’ but this is as feasible as their claims that they have any relevance anymore. In an increasingly angry political climate, we are facing the next 5 years of continued austerity measures that attack the poor for being poor and rewards the rich and multinational corporations for being rich. Here’s a clue EDL, it ain’t muslamicisationers that are gonna be causing a lot of misery in the UK. Give it up, it’s embarrassing for you.

    The EDL forge links with a children’s charity, and invite them to attend their Halifax goosestep on the 23rd of may. Vile!
