UK: Right-wingers and Muslims clash

Right-wingers and Muslims clash

2.49PM, Fri Jun 4 2004

Right-wing protesters waving Union Jack flags clashed with police and Muslims during Friday prayers outside a London mosque.

Around 20 men, claiming to be from a group called the United British Alliance jeered and shouted anti-Muslim slogans from behind fences set up by police outside the Finsbury Park mosque.

There were scuffles after a few protesters seemed to infiltrate the street in which prayers were being held, outside the north London mosque where radical cleric Abu Hamza was based before his arrest.

The clashes were quickly broken up, and prayers were allowed to continue as protesters sang "Rule Britannia".

Chief superintendent Barry Norman said an extra 60 officers had been drafted in, and security fences had been erected over fears that the event would be disrupted.

Eight police vans were parked around the corner from Finsbury Park Tube station, out of immediate sight of around 50 worshippers outside the mosque.

Conservatives in London? At least we know that there are a (very) few Brits with some pride and common sense.
They must feel like a very lonely bunch.

But aren't British right-wingers anti-Jewish (National Front, etc.)? What are they doing protesting against their betters in the war against the Kingdom of G-d?

Some of our "palaeos" need to get over there and straighten those people out.

Just nature taking its course, entirely predictable to everyone but the bunghole utopians who made it possible in the first place.

I don't know too much about them, but I'm not sure you want to claim them as conservatives.

Stormfronters have shown interest in the movement, since the BNP does note that Blair is sending British kids off to the slaughter at the behest of the Jews, like GWB.

IMO, if these guys want to fight jihadists, they should stop in at the local recruiting station rather than visiting the local mosque with bats. They're not French, the Brits, like us, are fighting a war.

BNP

The mosque has been closed for a couple of months, IIRC.

This was the one where the "cleric" that looks like a pirate was preaching, the one who has now been arrested -- Hamza.

Unfortunately, when "good" men refuse to do anything, we see neo-Nazi thugs popping up, who are then used by the liberals to discredit all opposition to the Jihadists...

Excellent. Both groups of arseholes deserve each other.

May they wipe each other out. The BNP or whatever is simply a lagerlout streetthugs fascist wannabees.

You are right about the neoNazi thugs popping up, they know the buzz words. As to the liberals, you can't control them, but it's vital to disconnect conservatism from the David Dukes of the world.

they aren't even conservative... they're usually corporate bashing socialists (corporations are controlled by the Joooooooooos, afterall). only instead of being international one-worlder socialists, they're nationalistic socialists... this point is lost on many...

Their website (i won't post the address - very amateurish, full of viruses and popups) says "The aims of the UBA are simple, we are a group for all British races, if you are proud to be British you are welcome in the UBA, our aims are to rid our shores of the Islamic terrorists who are a threat to our country and continue to preach their hatred on our streets, and in our cities!"
