A good few years ago now, I went to counter-protest an EDL march but my bus was late. When I finally got there all there was to be seen were a couple of coppers chatting and a man sweeping up beer cans.
The footy was on so the EDL had goosestepped their march faster and headed to the pubs, the anti-racists had gone home. The shops had shut and shuttered up early so I just had to turn round and get the next bus home.
@AndyPaciorekArt @thewritertype to me this demonstrates the level of commitment to their cause that the likes of the edl have. Something to do until the footy is on in the pubs.
