Right wing supporters and apologists have the hump. What a shame.
And left wing supporters such as you support violence. You're no better than the right wing thugs in reality.

And if there were no Islamic extremists in Britain, shouting vile abuse at soldiers returning home, there would be no EDL. Why not attack the root of the problem Dave and turn up with your masked mates to fight a bigger threat to diversity, Islamic extremists? If you can stop them encouraging Jihad and preaching hate, you will finish EDL at the same time.
Or is it only white racists that get up your nose?
are there islamic extremists, or right wing extremists coming to brighton to fight local people, and students?
Secondly, if you believe that the edl are only against 'extremists', then you really need to conduct a bit more research..
And left wing supporters such as you support violence. You're no better than the right wing thugs in reality.
and by allowing fascists to march in our city, and condemning opposition to them, I consider you a facilitator, and despite your denials, no better than EDL.
.
...as for the violent opposition, the first violence I saw on the day, came from EDL in Queens Road. You know, the people who came to Brighton with the publicized intent to create mayhem in our city. You condone that. I dont.
Seems that a few people on here dont mind violent, far right racists in their town to cause problems, but more worried about a reaction to them...its very interesting.
Oh, and they are not coming back. Looks like opposition to violent racists has been successful....thanks... ;-)
Im a left wing nutter now for opposing fascists in Brighton? Brilliant
If violent left wing gangs planned to come to Brighton, with the publicized intent to cause mayhem in the city, I would oppose it.
You wouldnt.
rent a mob , no more no less , if only they made that ammount of effort finding a job

Just admit Dave.....you like a tear up!
You really need to learn to read. Oh, and the left wing nutters were tweeting and Facebooking about have rucks before the day in question so there was planned left wing and right wing violence.
See you still won't condemn ALL violence - what a lovely nutjob you really are. Note I've made that word big as you seemed to have missed it in all other posts.
Question, Withdene: are you a pacifist?
Question, Westdene: are you a pacifist?
and by allowing fascists to march in our city, and condemning opposition to them, I consider you a facilitator, and despite your denials, no better than EDL.
There is a bit of that quote that makes no sense, at least not anymore.
The use of the word 'our', you live in Prague Dave, and travelled to another country for a confrontation. Surprised you haven't joined the Islamic State mob.
- no. Yes, you can call me a hypocrite. My point in this instance was that Dave can't seem to get his head round that both sides produced the violence and it was on the streets of this city that should be for the peaceful enjoyment of the residents - not bussed in violent nut jobs like Dave. Using his logic, as a resident opposed to the mask wearing left wing thugs who use violence I should be able to kick their heads in.
I didn't and still don't agree with the invasions of Iraq or Afghanistan but I'm far from a pacifist. Some conflict is almost inevitable but violent nutjobs on the streets of Brighton doesn't extend to that. Now if the police want to crack a few of their skulls next time both moronic groups are in town, I might just support that violence on our streets.
I can see where you're going with this but the evidence suggests that there was no violence until the counter-protesters decided to bring aggro with them and this is borne out by both police arrests and independent testimony of the day. The rhetoric by the left prior to this made the situation a lot more volatile and undoubtedly recruited right-wing thugs to the MFE march looking for trouble.
The previous march was embarrassingly small for the MFE, I saw it first-hand, with them corralled onto Victoria Gardens outside the King and Queen where they just hung around pointlessly. It was embarrassing. This year's should have gone the same way (especially given the appalling weather) but the counter-protesters have to take a large part of the blame for the ensuing violence. I'm firmly in the camp that says let them march and let's all just ignore them.
I'd also go further and say that DaveInPrague's logic is wrong for the root cause of this. This BBC article quotes a Home Office senior adviser who states that Islamic extremism is fuelling a backlash that is recruiting people to extremist right-wing organisations. Note the word 'backlash'. It's a reaction, not the original action. So, if Dave really, really cares about preventing right-wing extremism in this country his energy would be best spent elsewhere because, for all his claims that he's making fools of the fascists, it's the Islamic Jihadists that are making a fool of him with his myopia and inability to distinguish cause and effect.
