From the past – Reflections after a demo at Waterloo station (2010)

wombles-and-cop

I don’t want to be polemic, but this time I have to be, just a little at least.
I don’t know what is the best way of demonstrating, probably everyone chooses his own, but I can’t help thinking that the demo of last Saturday was not anarchist at all. It looked like a White Overalls demo, and according to my experience the White Overalls movement is in sharp contrast with the anarchist one. At least this is the way things stand in Italy. If we are anarchists we act in a very different way from the White Overalls.

Last month the North West Infidels (NWI) marched side-by-side with other neo-Nazis in Dover – sieg heiling, attacking journalists and threatening the general public. Now they’re coming to Manchester.

Manchester Antifascists, along with affiliated groups and the people of Manchester, will be opposing whatever they do wherever they go. Nazis are not welcome here so let’s stand against them in this great city.

Birmingham: Feb 6 – Bloody Mayhem for Pegida (UK)

feb

Pegida’s neo-Nazi goosestep from Birmingham International Airport Train Station to a windswept car park in the middle of nowhere, is not for the faint-hearted or the squeamish. And we are not talking about confrontations between ANTIFA and the fascists. Serious bad blood remains between many EDL members and Tommy “Tit” Robinson, with Stephen Yaxley Lennon accused by many detractors, with good reason, of grassing up the rank and file to the police. Non more so than when a large number of Birmingham EDL rioters were caged – Tommy apparently was on the phone for a week to officers investigating these crimes, once the photographic evidence was released. Nothing is left to the imagination with Tommy Tit – and one of his most offensive lies was when he headbutted a ex-military dissident in Blackburn who dared to accuse him of being an informant, later pretending he viciously assaulted him because he was “a nazi”. Lots of ex-EDL members are promising to turn up demanding answers from Tommy, whom they firmly believe to be an agent of the state.
