EDL leader Stephen Lennon on LBC 97.3 Radio. 10/02/2011

[rupertreddle]

the EDL guy is simply a racist thug. Why is Ferrari an idiot? he has simply shown this buffoon for what he really is-a racist

[bentstman]

radio man is a wanker

[Machiavelli1513]

This radio host is a complete and utter moron. You cannot base idiots who post on facebook as representative of an entire political movement--whether it's an EDL or Muslim one! A total disservice to professional journalism and reporting!

[XBindianX]

EDL are ex bnp members who are bored.

there racist scum who are the decay of the uk and the excrement of satan.

[xxxToomy07]

@TheAwokenMind how is Tommy wrong in opposing militant Islam?

All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. At least Tommy is speaking out to oppose Islam fascism.

[xxxToomy07]

Thank god someone is talking talking sense for a change.

First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win.

EDL to win.

[Green112Lantern]

A typical dimwit. Daft leader daft followers.

[TheLewisJackson]

The interviewer needs to grow a pair, Lennon getton lad!

[tonydavis1945]

Another appeasing interviewer who is just a plain CUNT!!!

[HRHPrincePhilip1]

Whoever posted this has got to be an EDL member pretending to be anti EDL. All the interviews hes posted claim to be anti EDL but then have Tommy Robinson mullering middle class hypocritical reporters live on air. No one listening to this objectively could say Robinson came out of that exchange badly. Thanks for uploading.

[tjb230193]

EDL!!!!! NSE!!!!!!!!!!

[sharkeys7]

if u wana protect this country mr lennon join the fucking army, oh forgot ya to much of a fucking pussy to do that aint ya,only a hard man wen out and about with ya gang of uneducated chavs,the reason your called the edl is because most of your members aint able to form more of a sentance than that

[veritasx77]

Lennon made some excellent points about the subjugation of women and homosexuals under Sharia Law. The interviewer`s spluttering attempts to change the subject between 2:15 - 2:55 speak volumes..... The fact that Islamic apologists can only make personal attacks rather than address the issues shows the weakness of Islamic ideology.

[portsanity]

@veritasx77 Lennon has been arrested at his home when he was beating his wife,so he is quite hypocritical when he talks about women's rights.

Unfortunately he is constantly trying to mislead people,Jewish people have had civil courts in this country forever and it doesnt effect anyone but those who choose to use them.

64 paedophile gangs for every Muslim one .Thats a fact

[veritasx77]

@portsanity Women with young children can be coerced to "choose" Sharia Law by abusive partners, particularly if they are isolated from the community. There should be one just law for all, regardless of religion. The truth cannot be denied: Sharia Law subjugates women and homosexuals. It has no place in civilized society.

[portsanity]

@veritasx77

I am not a fan of any religion,all are dodgy Exactly the same could be said about Beth din(the Jewish version) but no one seems to have a problem with that.

Incidentally tommy robinson and other knuckleheads are constantly trying to make us believe that somehow we will all be subjected to this court and somehow our own country's laws will somehow become superseded.

All ideology is weak

[xxxToomy07]

@portsanity All ideology is weak? Say that to the victims of Communism, Nazism and Islamism.

[portsanity]

@xxxToomy07 Lets not forget the victims of the edl

1st victim Mr Rossington a disabled man who couldnt defend himself who was kicked to death by 2 EDL activists.

2nd all the children who were in that restaurant in leicester when it was attacked.

3rd the brown woman who was punched in the face as she went about her business at leeds train st.

4ththe brown lad attacked by 4 edl supporters in Manchester as he walked unaware to mcr Victoria train st

[xxxToomy07]

@portsanity

1) I haven't heard about anything about a disabled person being beaten to death by the EDL. If it had happened the national media (the Guardian et al) would have been all over it. Where is your source?

2) The EDL protest in Leicester was poorly managed by the police and there were some bad apples causing trouble

3) Brown woman punched? Evidence please.

4) Never heard of such an incident of racial attack, but there a videos on youtube of white people getting beaten up by muslims.

[portsanity]

@xxxToomy07 Disabled man kicked to death was in the Lincolnshire echo 22/12/10,the police were the source,direct link will be sent to anyone that wants one.

Brown woman punched,you will have to take my word for it cos i saw it.

Same in manchester

Shops attacked in halifax last week.

EDL Nobhead tried to steal a handbag of a local in Halifax also,he thought he was hard with his mates to back him up so the husband had no choice but to stick a pool cue in his face.LOL

[portsanity]

@xxxToomy07 Daryill jones the EDL activist who murdered the disabled guy was also convicted by a jury at Lincoln Crown Court of robbing a 15-year-old schoolboy and hitting that boy with a spanner from behind.

Do you have so many mates like this that this sort of shit doesn't faze you ?

[xxxToomy07]

@portsanity

Firstly, the article says about the murderers: "there were some indications they were connected to the English Defence League." - This is guess. This is no proof they were ever part of the EDL.

Secondly, all large organizations have some bad apples. A small handful of people in the EDL may be violent, but the vast majority are peaceful protesters who oppose Sharia. Some Muslims are terrorists, but not all of them are. We should avoid generalising whole groups of people.

[portsanity]

@xxxToomy07 First of all the EDL do nothing but generalise about whole groups of people so i believe they deserve the same generosity of understanding.

Second The EDL is not a large organization,2000 activists maximum .

Third.They have stopped banging on with the generalisation that all Muslims are paedos because it has become embarrassing for them because there are 16 times the amount of paedos per 100 than there is Muslim paedos per 100.

1 in 750 EDL activist is a paedophile

[xxxToomy07]

@portsanity

Firstly, isn't it hypocritical to complain about the EDL generalising and then do the same thing yourself.

As for the size of the EDL my figures are based on turnout at static protests, e.g. the Luton protest had at least 3000, up to 7000 people in EDL attendance, although the media may say otherwise.

The EDL has NEVER said "all Muslims are paedos". What is true: Mohammed had sex with a nine your old. Muslim paedophiles tend to act in gangs rather than as individuals.

[portsanity]

@xxxToomy07 There is no evidence to say Muslim paedophiles are more likely to hunt in packs and if you look at the CHRIS name and shame website you will see that there are many many more white paedophile gangs than Muslim ones,if you have any evidence to the contrary please produce it.

Mohamed had sex with a 9 year old and Jesus was the product of paedophilia when you consider that Mary was 14 when she had him.

In my opinion neither are true cos they are both fairytale's

[portsanity]

@xxxToomy07 Firstly the artical says "TWO murderers of a vulnerable Lincoln man had links to the far-right English Defence League, according to police."

They do not go into how they were connected but why would they since this murder is not connected to racism,what we can be sure of is that neither is tommy robinsons brother.

[xxxToomy07]

@portsanity The EDL is a street protest movement, and as such it is very easy for people from all walks of life to turn up. Unfortunately, a minority may be scumbags intent on causing trouble. These people are ejected from demos if found. EDL members must sign a code of conduct before joining the organization. Your thinking is simplistic: Murderers had associations with EDL, therefore all EDL are murderers. No different from: Terrorists are Islamists, therefore all Muslims are terrorists.

[portsanity]

@xxxToomy07 Do you know of Micheal Heaton AKA Wigan Mike.

He was encouraged(begged in his words) to get involved in the EDL,

When he wasn't organising coach travel and running a forum for the EDL he was running the ARYAN STRYKE FORCE where he was distributing bomb and ricin making instructions and encouraged people to bomb/poison Jews.

[portsanity]

@xxxToomy07 The EDL code of conduct is nothing more than a disclaimer which is trying to protect tommy and the other dick-heads from any sort of responsibility.

After Blackburn protest loads of EDL went to Halifax where one of the pure and decent humans known as EDL tried to steal a woman's handbag,unfortunate for saint EDL he was caught by the ladies husband and when the the EDL guy thought he was untouchable with his EDL gang and he was hit in the face with a pool cue by the husband.LOL

[omracer6]

i think the presenter OWNED retarded Lennon. But it seems he was beiong cautious not to upset anyone except edl

[spackhollogay]

He makes a few decent points. The EDL aren't the ones for me anymore, too many rank and file members are just full on racist bigots.

[toir77]

@spackhollogay

True he makes a few decent points but invading English towns with legions of drunk hooligans is not really gonna solve anything.It might be a bit of a good day out for the grunts but not really a vote puller.

[EntinludeX]

So, English=Christian?

Crusader-wannabe, much?

Enjoy yer dark-ages.
