Yesterday heard the bell tolling for the EDL. At a London demo that had been heralded as the “big one” only 80 people showed up. The build up to this had been massive, the return to Walthamstow had been advertised for weeks, everyone was going. And just a week after the arrests of 53 of their members and the imprisonment of their leader, surely this was the time to show everyone that the EDL meant business. A couple of days before the demo the EDL had been banned from Walthamstow, this followed threats to riot and promises of violence. But the police allowed them to take it to Westminster, the heart of British politics. Seems though that the EDL “faithful” were only interested in a fight, with no chance of confrontation they stayed away. 
When it was obvious what a humiliation the EDL faced their pr spin machine went into hyperdrive, presumably to try and encourage last minute arrivals and to spur on those that had bothered turning up into making some noise

There is no doubt that yesterday was a failure, even the official edl only claimed 200 people turned up and that they were being attacked by those nasty lefties.
While all this was going on a celebration was happening in Walthamstow with hundreds of people taking to the street to party. Again, the EDL find it difficult to tell the truth about this, with British Freedoms Michael Wood making silly claims.
The EDL failed yesterday their “people” have deserted them, their leader is in prison facing a possible very long sentence, the splits are getting bigger and wider and the EDL try to lie their way out of it. This time, it just isn’t going to work.

The EDL are going through a tough time, their leader is held on remand for passport fraud, facing possible extradition, 52 of their most loyal followers were arrested and bailed with conditions that mean they can’t attend this weekends demo. The MET have asked for a ban on their march in Walthamstow. So yesterday Kevin Carroll was announced as the new leader while Tommy deals with his troubles. So what was the first act of Kev, was it a rallying cry to bring the lads together, to pull everyone in, to reunite and pull victory from the jaws of defeat? Was it fuck, Kev used the opportunity to launch an attack on the few members they have left, naming Essex specifically. As you can imagine, this has not gone down well
The EDL is riddled with paranoia and suspicion, there are a huge number of informants and no one trusts anyone. Kev has screwed his chance to pull victory from the jaws of defeat. This seems to be the start of a long (or fast) goodbye.
to further add to the EDL’s woes comes yet another split with the setting up of “the real EDL”

“We are a group of disaffected and loyal supporters including three regional officers and we think that unless we take charge of the EDL, the movement will have vanished within the next few weeks.
We are not going to state who we are until Sunday when we can access the damage Walthamstow has caused us.
This is our ten point plan to get the movement back on it’s feet again and take back our streets.
It is looking more and more likely that Walthamstow will see it all kicking off between EDL supporters and the end of the EDL.

According to the EDL ,Tommy Robinson is a political prisoner, simply locked up for speaking out. Martyred by the “pro islamic political elite” and “cultural Marxists”. Tommy Robinson, real name Steven Yaxley Lennon, is a habitual criminal see here for his criminal record https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oCFu4MXoeKFDJBVMfPegvQqiDL91Q8jg_ZOyhe7VgV4/edit?pli=1. He has very publicly flouted his bail conditions on previous occasions turning up despite it being against his bail conditions to a tower hamlets demo dressed as a rabbi, he then did a runner and was arrested later http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6H9ExBt1mA
He is awaiting trial on a case of money laundering and fraud that pre dates the EDL and is currently still serving community service and may still be on a suspended sentence following his conviction for an assault on an ex soldier.
Tommy steven lennon robinson yaxley chose to enter the US despite knowing he had previously been denied admission 2 years previously. The offence he is accused of is straight out law breaking, not a political act. He is not a martyr, he is a criminal.

Despite being on bail himself Kevin Carroll, candidate for Befordshire police commissioner will run the EDL during cousin Tommy’s “holiday” The holiday, courtesy of her majesty, comes following Tommy being remanded for alegedly entering america using someone else’s passport. http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5hHwIgcipW1c9IX8XX9XWJzTo6OCg?docId=CNG.d7b21f72c139e4f1bd04c5e01456d2b5.691 Tommy, well known liar, will be hard pressed to get out of this one, unless he claims he didn’t use a false passport, he just said “ribbit” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxFToKm97c4
