Far right reorganising for Tommy Robinson protests, say activists
Guardian ^ | 20/6/18

The far right in the UK is mobilising itself around protests over the imprisonment of the former English Defence League leader Tommy Robinson, a group of MPs, union leaders and political activists have said.

In a letter to the Guardian, they say a violent 15,000-strong far-right protest in support of Robinson in central London on 9 June raised concerns for those who value diversity.

“The racist right are using Robinson to reorganise,” the letter says. It says Nazi salutes and Islamophobia were central features of the protest. At one point demonstrators chased police through the streets of Whitehall.

“This is the first serious attempt since the collapse of the English Defence League (EDL) to develop a racist street movement and give it a political form. It is supported internationally by notorious figures including from the US and the Dutch Islamophobic right,” the letter says.

Here we go with the “far right” crap again. These people would probably be middle of the road democrats here. But it better suits their agenda to misname them.

Here’s 4+ hours of footage from this “far right” demo. Don’t have time to view it, anymore than I can read the full IG report. But I’ll bet somewhere in 4 hours, they’ll find a few lone skinheads making a fascist salute or something, and splice that out of the context of the full demo, and run with it.

oh FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, now it is far right , but never far left.

How about the average man and woman are just fed up of seeing girls being put into sex slavery , and being raped by muslims time and time again.

For the life of me, I cannot understand the common liberal mindset...The liberal politician, I can understand...It’s about power and power only, for themselves...

But the everyday man or woman on the street who are liberal followers, it doesn’t make any sense...Where is common sense??? Where is logical thinking??? Where is reality???

Just had this conversation as a family. My oldest son in the Marine Corps said he saw a topic on social media and the liberals on there were nuts, plain out and out , totally nuts who were full of anger, and hatred. He said the women swore more than his Marine pals, and could not grasp the basics of facts.

Far Right, I also see Racist Right. How about Nazi Right? Hitler Right? White Supremacy Right?

How many flavors are there are of the Political Right, anyways?

What about the Political Left? Do they have flavors, or are they all one big kumbaya-singing group of special darlings?

Here we go with the “far right” crap again.

When Hilary labelled non-totalitarians as "deplorable," we embraced the term and made it our own. Those in Europe who have been labelled "far-right" or "Nazi" because they have have it extremely clear they will not convert to Islam should likewise embrace these terms and make them their own.

Tan himself (PBUH) has endorsed this concept: Fight Fire with Fire

BLM, Antifa , Occupy are never called far left, no they are called the 98% or the average person.
The media are the ones spreading their lies, and the left are showing us their hate yet again, and they think by having stickers saying co-exists, and tolerance gives them a pass for their hate.

According to our media informed by the SPLC, the outdated political spectrum has been replaced by a binary methodology. The only allowable groupings are the extreme right and the moderates.

Yeah, right. Nazi salutes etc...

What lies.

In real life these are the children, grand kids and great grand children of the people who fought and defeated the Nazis.

Hey Britain! Quit acting like Soviet Russia and maybe you won’t give people something to rally around!

Men like you were screwed over and this country owes a debt to you for the rest of your lives as far as I am concerned.
The disgusting media, and the left sure have a lot to answer for.

I call BS. They’re trying to keep the scaremongering up and their Libtard base animated. Everybody knows the only thing the English far right is organising for the immediate future is a headbashing session with Russian hooligans at the World Cup in Moscow.
