Hi,
This weekend, the violent English Defence League are holding demos across Britain, exploiting the brutal murder of Drummer Lee Rigby to try to stir up Muslim hatred.
Please take a few seconds to join with me and take a stand against this ignorance; sign Hope Not Hate's letter to the Daily Mirror, being published in Saturday's paper:

Thanks!

I've just read the email from 'Eddie Izzard', and although I'm none too happy with the wording I did sign it.
Sometimes it is just a case of being on one side of a line or the other.
Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing.

What sad state of affairs that this bunch of racist troublemakers can take advantage of a tragedy to promote their own narrow minded cause.

they were disappearing off the radar until the recent murder in woolwich and will do so again in a few weeks time unless we give them the oxygen of publicity.

opposing the edl is like using a sledgehammer to crack a doughnut, seen loads of similar groups in the past - the only thing that kept them going was people demonstrating against them.
