The Master Race - all four of them.

Here they are, the master race with their no-frills, anti-immigration banner and one, solitary 'Poundland' England flag (reduced to the post-world cup price of 50p).



These four Aryan Warriors from the National Front were 'keeping it real' by protesting an anti-racism rally being held by about 70 people in Newcastle Upon Tyne.

First, they hid behind the base of Grey's Monument, where my faithful snapper 'Buzzkill' caught the pictures above, before moving twenty yards away across the road near the Monument Mall shopping centre. There they dazzled the handful of curios shoppers with the argument that "immigration is racist" before being ignored by everyone.

Dear me, lads, hard times eh? Those rotters at the EDL seem to have stolen your thunder and the few supporters you had left!

Newcastle in four movements

The English Defence League (EDL) was planning a march and rally in Newcastle Upon Tyne and there was also going to be three opposing groups in the city that day too. I’d become aware of EDL through the media and on websites like Youtube so I decided I’d have a look for myself to see what they were like close up.

What was all that about? EDL in Newcastle.



In this second part, Buzzkill describes what he thought about the EDL demo and the anti-EDL protests.

AWAY FROM THE NUMBERS

Right, let’s get this out the way. Whenever there is a ‘fight’ between two groups the numbers thrown about are always over the top. Some EDL supporters claimed to have had over two thousand people in Newcastle while UAF had 500. UAF, on the other hand, claimed they had a thousand and EDL only had 700. The local media tended to have the figures even, if a little inflated.

Coming up soon...

Coming up soon (promise!) I've got two massive articles with photos written by my best (and so far ONLY) contributor; BuzzKill. They are about the English Defence League's recent march in Newcastle Upon Tyne in the UK. Buzz tries to cut through the crap to give an accurate description of the day and, in the second article, an attempt at analysis.

I will also have my own piece about the BNP's results in the 2010 UK elections, focusing on one particular area.

I beat you can hardly wait. Well, sorry for the delay but there is a world cup on y'know!

Cheers.

Post number two - still saying nothing.

Yeah well, I'm almost ready to go. Just not a technical type so just give me a moment...
