EDL in Luton 2011



An English Defence League flash mob were in Derby on Saturday to remind people to keep on their toes after the conviction of muslim paedophiles in the city - this was just the tip of the iceberg, so don't think you can sit back on your laurels and think it has now gone away, because it hasn't.




Next Saturday sees the return of the EDL to Luton, where it all began a year ago, after a group of muslims screamed abuse and waved disgusting banners at our returning troops.

It looks like it's going to be a good day for patriots to get together and show those in power that we will not stand by while our country is swamped by third world, medievil scum.

Foreign Aid Propaganda Machine

dfid_logo

Have you ever wondered how foreign aid is distributed?

In the last days of the Labour government, the Global Community Links (GLC) scheme was formed. As part of the Department for International Development (DfID), the only department untouched by budget cuts, it encourages organisations such as schools, charities and churches to apply for money in order to raise awareness of third world countries.

In other words, millions of pounds of your money destined for poor countries is actually being used as a propaganda machine right here in Great Britain.

Here are a few examples of where those millions have gone:

'Celebrating diversity: Voices from Africa.' A conference in Cambridge planned for later this month featuring an Afo-Cuban dance gala.
Cost: £8,015

Fairtrade coffee mornings in Huddersfield to promote links with tea and coffee producers in Kenya
Cost: £9,460

A DVD and poster exhibition in Reading about epilepsy in Sierra Leone.
Cost: £8,985

Plymouth Ghana Link: A week of activities in Plymouth including musical performances from Ghana, a workshop about malaria and links between schools.
Cost: £10,000

Team Kenya: A twinning project between Kenya and Newcastle Upon Tyne to promote awareness of climate change.
Cost: £10,000

A video and conference about a twinning project between Yorkshire Dales village Burley and African village Mali.
Cost: £9,550

Australia - Safe Haven No More

If you think people who believe our country is becoming islamised are nuts, then you need to read this letter by an Australian copt...

I am an Australian, I am Coptic and I was born in Alexandria, Egypt.

My parents immigrated to Australia when I was a very young child.

Neither of my parents could speak English and they had no acquaintances or relatives here. I recall arriving in Australia, and getting into a taxi. My father handed the taxi driver a note with an address. It was the address of the only Coptic Priest here in Australia, the very Rev Fr Mina Nematalla (May God have mercy upon his soul and grant him eternal peace).

After a long taxi drive from the airport, we arrived at a house in Pendle Hill.

It was a Sunday, it was summer and hot. We arrived and the house was locked; no one was home. I was hungry and fell asleep on the verandah.

Late afternoon, Father Mina arrived with his family to find my family at his doorstep.

They welcomed us, took us in, fed us and accommodated us. Within a week Father Mina found us a unit, found my parents employment and a school for myself and siblings.

Our new life in the wondrous land of Australia had started. We were too young to comprehend why my Parents left everything and fled to a country where they knew no one. (I might Add Father Mina established many many families, and the Coptic community has grown from 1 church in the late 60’s, to over 26 parishes today, as well as schools and monasteries in this beautiful land of Australia.

As young children we were fortunate to be raised and educated in Australia. My siblings and I lived here free to practice our faith in the sanctity of Australia, and had no idea religious discrimination even existed. We attended Catholic Schools, and are now all professionals with families of our own. We were blessed not to experience the daily persecution and ridicule that our Coptic brethren suffer in Egypt simply because they are Christians.

I am sure you have all heard the old adage “all good things come to an end”.

Those words have never rung so true for the Coptic community in Australia, never more so than in Sydney. After more than 40 years of calling Australia home, much to my shock and that of the Coptic community, we find the threats against Christian Churches have actually reached Australian shores. We are dismayed and have learnt that there is no escaping persecution by the radical arm of Islam. My Parents abandoned everything to escape radical Islam in Egypt under the rule of Sadat.

The threats of terror attacks on at least four Australian churches resulted in an unprecedented move where the AFP and NSW police had to protect thousands of Coptic Christians during our Christmas Eve services on 6 January. I was in tears, realising that Australia has lost its innocence, and religious intolerance and persecution have reached our shores.

While many in the Islamic community cry “Islamophobia”, there has been a deafening silence for the plight of Christians throughout the world, and no Australian Islamic group has condemned the attacks or stood in solidarity with the Copts. I note the Jewish community and every other Christian denomination have stood in solidarity with their brothers, the COPTS.

Unlike the Islamic community, the Coptic communities do not care about words which attack. Slander and vile behaviour towards the Copts occurs as a matter of routine in Egypt from nearly every mosque. The media is awash with disgraceful interviews and Islamic TV stations target Christians every where, not just the Copts.

It is the continued threat of violence, murder, rape, kidnapping and assaults that concern us. In Egypt, the Copts have learnt to ignore the vile words that emanate from mosques over loudspeakers on a weekly basis during Islamic Friday prayers. This issue was actually raised by a very brave Islamic TV host, and he begged the Islamic community to address these issues, as well as the Islamic religious classes that brainwash Egyptians from a very young age. This man, Amr Adib, paid the price for been outspoken - he is now unemployed!!

The general ignorance in the Australian community about the dire threat posed by radical Islam concerns me gravely. We Copts, in my opinion, know better what it is like to live in an Islamic country than any other group in the world. The Copts, the largest surviving Christian group in the Middle East, have survived over 1400 years of systematic discrimination, persecution and belittlement. Once 100%, they now only make up only 10% of the Egyptian population of 80 million.

The same persecution and discrimination has reached Australian shores. The Sydney churches targeted were / are:

St Antonius and St Paul parish in Guildford

Archangel and St Bishoy at Mt Druitt

St Demiana and St Athanasius at Punchbowl

St Mary and St Merkorious, at Rhodes

The apathy concerning Islam in Australia has proved our greatest threat. Whilst it may be a small group, none the less there is no question that some in the Australian Islamic community are extremists, and against democracy and the Australian culture and way of life. There are many Islamic websites in Australia that should be of concern to everyone.

What went wrong?

\Why are these people in our midst?

What is the Government going to do to address the issue, nip the problem in the bud before it turns into a major problem?

I ask these questions because, as the Islamic community grows in Australia, so will the numbers of Islamic extremists in their midst. That is a statistical Fact. My greatest wish is that the Islamic community weeds out these radicals, works hand in hand with the police and protects the name of Islam, and the non Muslim “targets” of these mad men.

My greatest fear is Australia in a few generations will find itself facing the same problems that are faced in Egypt at the hands of radical and extremists Islamists. These Islamists actually consider themselves quite normal, and the Christians “deserve the treatment they get according to specific Suras in the Koran”.

Any religious text (in this case the Koran) that calls for the killing of any other creed undermines and raises serious questions about the integrity of the entire religion (in this case ISLAM).

To the best of my knowledge, this is the first time in Australia’s history that a specific church group has had to be protected by the authorities as a direct result of threats by Islamic extremists hell bent on attacking Middle Eastern Christians during a holy and blessed occasion.

At the Rhodes church in Sydney, we were very saddened that the NSW police had to turn up in force to confirm the church was safe prior to Christmas Eve Mass. Bomb searches, sniffer dog, PORS (Public Order and Riot Squad), and police helicopters took part in the security measures. For those who grew up in Egypt, it brought back memories of the dark evil days of living as a Copt in Egypt.

After sweeping the Church, the authorities declared it safe. It was then immediately put in Lock down mode. The entire perimeter of the church was fully fenced (ATF) and the police remained onsite till Xmas celebrations were concluded that evening. There was only one point of entry and exit, parking on church grounds was banned, post mass celebrations were cancelled, and the Coptic community was shell shocked that this was happening in Australia. In addition to the Police presence, private security guards were engaged, assisted by official church ushers.

Having been personally involved with the authorities, I can only extend the absolute gratitude and appreciation of the Rhodes Parish community for the diligence, understanding and genuine concern they displayed towards us as a community.

In particular, I thank the Members of the Australian Federal Police, Burwood Local area Command, The Superintendent, the Riot squad and all the Officers who placed themselves in harm’s way to protect us as a community. I thank them from the bottom of my heart: they were tremendous and deserve every praise.

Unfortunately, though Xmas mass has passed, church officials are still worried that an attack may eventuate when least expected on any one of their churches, monasteries or schools in Australia. Though the threat was for Christmas Eve, the terrorists might strike on a normal Sunday. That's how they work. More so, Easter is only 3 months away and we have a whole week of services where the churches are packed. It has been reported "The NSW Police Force is closely monitoring international developments in the wake of the attack on the Coptic community in Egypt," the statement read.

We as a community trust the Police will monitor the situation and hopefully discover any radical Islamic sects or cells here in Sydney. They have tarnished the reputation of the glorious country and the best place in the world to live. These people do not deserve to be here and destroy peace and the good name and reputation of Australia as a tolerant multi race multi religion country.

It is very painful for me to accept that Islamists are destroying the last safe haven for non Muslims in the world.

I will conclude by again thanking every member of the Australian Authorities who aided and participated in ensuring the safety of the Coptic community in Sydney. You have done a tremendous job and I thank you for allowing Christmas to pass incident free in 2011. God Bless You.

An Australian Copt.

Mark ‘Stone’ Kennedy – cop turned anarchist

Mark Kennedy

I’ve been reading the news about Mark Kennedy, the policeman turned anti-fascist since the story broke and as soon as I saw a picture of him I knew I’d seen him before, so I did some digging; as you do.

According to reports, Kennedy, whose undercover name was Mark Stone, was enlisted as an undercover eco-cop that relayed ‘critical intelligence’ to his superiors every ten days.

For six years, between 2003 and 2009, Kennedy travelled to 22 countries meeting anarchist leaders on a wage of £50,000 per year, all at the tax-payers expense. After abusing  his position and bedding many anarchists, his bosses did some undercover work of their own and Kennedy was sacked. Instead of giving evidence against the anarchists he has now joined their ranks and is a witness for their defence.

After only a few minutes digging, I found a picture of Kennedy outside Ripley Town Council offices amongst a group protesting against the British National Party’s application to hold the annual Red White and Blue festival, held in Codnor/Denby in 2009.

I think ‘anti’-fascists should be afraid, very afraid indeed, as he will not be the only one infiltrating them; just as I suspect the British National Party, EDL and other such groups are also infiltrated.

Why isn't there an appeal for the Australian floods?


At least 22 people are feared dead and nearly a hundred more missing as Australia faces it's worse case of flooding since 1974.

Flash flooding hurled millions of gallons of water, tsunami-like, down Queensland's Lockyer valley taking cars and houses along with it.

So, when I went into the British Resistance PalTalk room this morning and one of our Australian friends was in there I asked him to give me his account of the disaster.

He told me 30,000 people have to be evacuated by 4am (Australian time) today.

He gave an account of a mother and her two young children swept away in a car near a motel and of how a couple of people tried to help but they couldn't get to them.

He also spoke of a mother and her young son stranded on the top of a car surrounded by water and logs, and once again, people couldn't reach them.

His argument is that if there had been troops and helicopters they could have been saved.

'Brickie' is angry and it's understandable. There are around 4,000 Australian troops in Afghanistan and Iraq, yet the Australian Prime Minister (Labour) is only promising 150 army personnel and maybe 2 or 3 helicopters.

What use is 150 army personnel and 2 or 3 helicopters when there are 30,000 people to evacuate and rescue? Certainly the police can't cope as they are stretched to the limit. Added to that was there was no mention of sending any doctors.

Recently Australia gave Indonesia 500million dollars and sent planes and helicopters to rescue Indonesia's people. Why isn't the Australian government (Labour) doing the same for their own people?

Our government is doing nothing to help either. While we give millions in aid to other countries David Cameron says Australia doesn't need any help!

America is giving Australia 1 million dollars, New Zealand a further 1 million dollars.

The UK? NOTHING. That's right, a big fat zero.

This is a monumental disaster, so where are the television appeals? I haven't seen one. Not one!

If I find any links to donate to our Australian cousins I will be updating this article. After all, many of us have family over there.

UPDATE 13:31 - Finally the news is reporting on the floods but guess what... it was followed by the Haiti disaster. Just for comparison of course.

While they showed the Australians moving their things out while they can, they showed the aftermath of the earthquake and the camps in Haiti.

There is no comparison. The haitians have always lived in shanty towns and never had anything, whereas the Australians had it all and are losing it all. That in my book makes it worse for the Australians. And yes, I know a hell of a lot more people were killed in Haiti, but that's because of the density of the population.

While on this subject I would like to know what has happened to the billions of pounds that was pumped into Haiti, a country that is under 27,750 sq kilometres in size. Why is the earthquake area still covered in rubble and why are the people still living in tents a whole year after the event? With that amount of money they should all be living in mansions by now.

According to reports gang rape is now rife in Haiti. Do I expect to hear reports of gang rape in Australia? Of course not, because Australia is a more civilised country.

The media put these two reports back-to-back to justify lack of support to Australia from our government.

They make me sick.

From the BNP website...

The tragic shooting in Arizona of a Jewish American congresswoman and some bystanders has taken a new twist with the news that the assassin is himself Jewish and is a well-known leftist radical, directly contradicting media claims that that he was linked to “right wing organisations.”

The shocking incident, which saw a crazed gunman shoot Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and nineteen others, six of them fatally, was initially blamed on “right wing extremists.”

The media in America, and here in Britain, then claimed that the shooter, Jared Lee Loughner, was linked to the patriotic American Renaissance organisation, based on what was claimed to be a memo from the American government’s Department of Homeland Security.

This story was latched onto by the Daily Mail in London, and repeated unquestioningly.

Finally, the far left Communist party front organisation, Searchlight/Hope not Hate repeated the allegations and threw in the British National Party for good measure because Nick Griffin had addressed an American Renaissance meeting in the past.

Now, however, it has been revealed that there was no such memo and that the Department of Homeland Security has “not established any such a possibility,” as reported by the Washington Post.

Furthermore, the news that the shooter was Jewish and was known amongst friends as a left-wing radical, has further undermined the spurious attempt to drag American Renaissance, and by implication, the British National Party, into the story.

This is the sort of twisted, deviant lying which we have come to expect as normal from the extremist communists in Searchlight/Hope not Hate, but it is a worrying trend when such obvious lies and malicious smears are repeated by parts of the mainstream media.

It is precisely this sort of undemocratic lynch-mob mentality which has come to mark the “democracy” as practised by the far left: a vicious hypocrisy which reveals itself to be the worst of the fascism which they claim to oppose.

Keith Vaz is told he is not British on BBC radio

BBC radio's Jim Davis discussed the topic 'the Muslim grooming of young English girls' on yesterday's show with Keith Vaz as guest MP

At one point a caller tells Vaz some uncomfortable truths and gets cut off.

The day democracy died in Oldham



With only 3 days to go to the Oldham East and Saddleworth by-election, last night saw the hustings at the Millgate Arts Centre in Delph.

Hustings are where all candidates share a platform and questions are asked by voters. This is to help them decide who they are going to vote for.

As usual, fascist Labour took offence at the sight of British National Party candidate, Derek Adams and called the police to have him physically removed.

Not only was Derek removed from the premises but other parties candidates were refused entry including the English Democrats Stephen Morris.

What has happened to democracy in this country? If you don't like a candidate or what they stand for you just don't vote for them.

Oldham has proved that democracy in this country is dead.

Guillain-Barre Syndrome and the flu jab


This morning I read the heartbreaking story of a young local woman who died following contracting Guillain-Barre Syndrome and Leukaemia.

Miss Keeley Wardley, who turned 17 on Christmas Day, died in Nottingham’s Queen’s Medical Centre on December 28th.

Guillain-Barre Syndrome attacks the nervous system and according to reports Miss Wardley was diagnosed with the illness after becoming paralysed in February 2010.

In November 2010, after regaining some movement, she fell ill with swollen glands and was told she had leukaemia. Chemotherapy was administered, but Miss Wardley developed a chest infection and was rushed into hospital on Christmas Eve and put on a ventilator.

Miss Wardley’s family was informed she was in remission on that same day, which leaves questions as to what exactly caused her death.

I have to admit that my first thought was, ‘did this young woman have the swine flu jab at the beginning of 2010?’ If she did then it is all the more reason not to have the vaccination.

My belief is that vaccines cause as many problems as they cure, and even though I am in the ‘high risk’ category and should have the jab, I don’t; I’d rather take my chances.

Our bodies develop immunities, natural immunities, and whilst a vaccine may be beneficial to some, it can be highly dangerous to others.

Less that 50% of doctors chose to take the swine flu vaccine. If they really thought it was safe I believe 100% would have taken it. Apparently they have concerns over its testing and rightly so, seeing as the government have been asking doctors to be on the look out for cases of Guillain-Barre.

Up until recently it was suggested that everyone should have the vaccine, now we hear it is not recommended that under 5’s. The reason? A ten-fold increase in under 5’s suffering fits after having it due to their ‘underdeveloped immune system’.

These are just a few of the complications following the administering of the swine flu jab and there are many more including the increased risk of cancer. The nutrient solution for the vaccine consists of cancerous cells from animals. Now that’s food for thought, isn’t it?

Even more damning is there is no evidence of benefit for influenza vaccinations. In fact the only ones to benefit are the pharmaceutical companies that produce them.

Just for the record, I have had the flu throughout the Christmas period. I was laid up for 10 days and I’m just only just starting to feel fighting fit.

Was it worth not having the jab? For me yes, because I let my immune system deal with it instead of pumping something alien into my body.

Derby Asian paedophile gang leaders locked up indefinitely

Two ‘sexual predators’ who subjected a series of vulnerable girls to rapes and sexual assaults described by a judge as a ‘reign of terror’ were given indefinite prison sentences today.

Abid Mohammed Saddique, 27, was jailed for a minimum of 11 years at Nottingham Crown Court.

Mohammed Romaan Liaqat, 28, was told he must serve at least eight years before he is considered for release.

The men were sentenced as dozens of police lined the street outside the court in front of a protest by the right-wing EDL.

More officers were stationed in the court building.

It comes after a senior detective accused police and social services of allowing hundreds of young white girls to be exploited by Asian men over fears of being branded racist if they spoke out.

Detective Chief Inspector Alan Edwards, of West Mercia Poice, said: 'These girls are being passed around and used as meat.'

Agencies have identified a long-term pattern of offending by gangs of men, predominantly from the British Pakistani community, who have befriended and abused hundreds of vulnerable girls aged 11 to 16.

Experts claim the statistics represent a mere fraction of a 'tidal wave' of offending in counties across the Midlands and the north of England which has been going on for more than a decade.

In the past three years, 14 court prosecutions have taken place involving the on-street grooming of girls aged 11 to 16 by groups of men.

The figure is a startling rise from the total of three such prosecutions since 1997.

Since 1996 a similar pattern of collective abuse has emerged involving hundreds of girls aged 11 to 16 in Leeds, Manchester, Sheffield, Rotherham, Derby, Keighley, Skipton, Blackpool, Oldham, Blackburn, Rochdale, Preston and Burnley.

In this latest case, the men were the prime movers in a group of men who befriended girls aged from 12 to 18 in the Derby area and groomed them for sex.

Saddique and Liaqat - both married with children - were said to be the leaders of the Derby gang.

Today Judge Philip Head told Saddique: 'Your crimes can only be described as evil,' adding he was an 'evil, manipulative and controlling' character who was a continuing danger to young girls.

The judge said: 'You are in the truest sense a sexual predator with a voracious sexual appetite that you gratified as frequently as possible in a variety of ways.'

He said the pair's attitude was 'sex at any price' as they and others embarked on a 'reign of terror on girls in Derby'.

At the opening of the first trial, held at Nottingham Crown Court, prosecutor Yvonne Coen QC said: ‘They preyed on young girls who were vulnerable, either because of their age and because of their own personal circumstances.

‘They exploited these girls either for their own sexual satisfaction or for their friends'.’

Saddique, of Northumberland Street, Normanton, Derby, was convicted of four counts of rape as well as two counts of false imprisonment, two of sexual assault, three charges of sexual activity with a child, perverting the course of justice and aiding and abetting rape.

Liaqat, of Briar Lea Close, Sinfin, Derby, was found guilty of one count of rape, two of sexual assault, aiding and abetting rape, affray, and four counts of sexual activity with a child.

Labour's David Chaytor sentenced to 18 months in jail


The first of the MP's prosecuted for theft and fraud has been sentenced to 18 months in jail today.

Labour MP, David Chaytor admitted three counts of false accounting and the prosecutor said bogus documents “were designed by Chaytor to siphon money off from the public purse to which he was not entitled".

According to news reports, Chaytor is a broken man. He wasn't a broken man when he thought he wasn't going to be prosecuted at the Old Bailey. He thought that as an MP he would get away with a slap on the wrist by his peers and was above the law of the land.

The sentence for this type of crime ranges between 18 months and 7 years and as an MP it is no surprise he has received the lowest sentence. He will only serve 9 months of that sentence and could even be out earlier with tagging.

Where's the justice in that?

Labour's legacy of a welfare state


I spotted this article today which shows how the last Labour government has turned our country into a welfare state thanks to their policy of mass immigration and bad education.

Britain has become the ‘Neet’ capital of Western Europe, according to an analysis of the performance of youngsters across the continent.

The UK has more young people without work or education than even Romania and Bulgaria.

Only four of the 27 European Union nations have more poorly educated and unskilled young people.

In just five years, 12 EU countries have overhauled Britain and now have fewer youngsters adrift without qualifications or hope.

Among them are France, Germany, Belgium, Holland and Ireland.

Even the likes of Romania and Bulgaria have now overtaken Britain in terms of their proportion of young men and women with decent education and job chances, the EU research showed.

The comparisons were published at a time of deepening concern over Britain’s growing army of Neets – which stands for young people ‘not in employment, education or training’.

Nearly one in five 18-year-old boys and one in six girls count as Neets, and earlier this month a count from the Department for Work and Pensions found that there are 1.5million people in Britain who have never done a day’s work in their lives. Of these, 600,000 are under the age of 25.

The latest figures were compiled by the EU statistical arm, Eurostat, and show how the numbers of youngsters with poor education developed in the 27 member countries between 2003 and 2008.

They show the proportion of the population in each country aged between 20 and 24 who are not in education or training and who have only the bare minimum of secondary school education.

In wealthier countries, a very high proportion of such young people are also jobless.

In the UK, 12.1 per cent of those aged 20-24 came into the category classed as ‘early school leavers’ in 2003. But by 2008 this had gone up to 17 per cent. The increase in the Neet count amounted to 40 per cent.

By contrast, most EU countries have seen numbers of ill-educated and untrained young people fall.

In Germany, the percentage fell over the five years from 12.8 to 11.8; in France, it fell from 13.2 to 11.8.

The effect of Britain’s growing proportion of Neets means that in 2008 there were more badly educated young people in Britain than in 22 other EU countries. In 2003, only ten countries had young people who were doing better.

The four countries with more ill-educated young people in 2008 were Portugal, Spain, Italy and Malta.

In Portugal, Spain and Italy, many of those in the EU count were likely to be in low-paid jobs. In Britain, almost all are jobless.

The Coalition has promised to try to cut numbers of young people who are idle by reforming welfare payments so that it pays to work rather than to claim benefits.

But arguments between ministers – in particular between Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith and Chancellor George Osborne – appear to have clouded the chances of reform.

Author Patricia Morgan, who has published studies of young people and the family, said: ‘These are shocking figures. They show that we do not care for our young people, and that our treatment of boys is appalling.

‘The Neet girls tend to have babies and be supported by the state as single mothers. The boys have no jobs, and no reason to get a job.

‘They have no responsibilities and no-one thanking them if they do boring work. They have no role and no-one wants them.'
