SWP and Their Tenuous Grasp of Reality

I just read the report on last months Scottish Defence League ‘demonstration’ from the Socialist Workers Party and it is absolutely hilarious for it’s absolute lack of attachment to any form of reality. Well unless you’re some kind of weird hippy who thinks that reality is subjective.

EDL – Keeping The Natives In Line!

I like how when they were designing the SDL t-shirts they simply changed the colour of the cross of St George from red to blue. I suppose the ‘Scottish’ defence league were a bit too dense to notice…

Spot the difference between the pillocks

Scotland ‘United’ Against Anti-Fascists

Yesterday, 14/11/09, saw the English Defence League, in their guise as the ‘Scottish’ Defence League, attempt to hold a rally in Glasgow. This was to be a rally ‘against Islamic extremists’ and not against Muslims in general… honest guv! According to their propaganda they are merely concerned about the spread of radical Islam and the implementation of Sharia law in the UK. A fairly reasonable standpoint; Islam is after all, like it’s Abrahamic siblings Judaism and Christianity, a vile and contemptible ideology of misogyny, homophobia, intolerance and hatred and the thought of its edicts being implemented as law should make all right headed people shudder. This writer would be more than happy to see all mosques, synagogues and churches recycled into socially useful buildings. A friend of mine suggested recently that churches would make excellent climbing centres what with all that wall space in the nave and the steeple for abseiling! This however is not, despite their rhetoric, the aim of the so called Defence Leagues.

…

This month it will become illegal to photograph the police.

Seriously!

On the 16th of Febuary this year the police get the power to arrest, with the threat of ten years in prison, anyone seen photographing them, or more specifically any one who ‘elicits or attempts to elicit information about (members of armed forces) … which is of a kind likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism’.

Which is just as catch all as every other piece of anti-’terror’ legislation that has beenpassed in the last 7/8 years. So now if you, or anyone else, takes a photograph of the police assaulting people/acting an inappropriate manner you are quite likely to get arrested and threatened with jail time!

Shower of bastards.

Demonstrate This Wednesday At the Greek Consulate

The Glasgow Anarchist Federation calls for a picket outside the Greek consulate on Wednesday to coincide with our fellow workers general strike in Greece.

Since the cold blooded murder of young Alexandros Grigoropoulos on Saturday Greek cities have been alight with the flames of anger. We cannot allow the Greek state to attempt to stifle this anger by simply arresting the murderous police officers. The entire system of governance is to blame. Like the police in this country who feel able to murder youths the Greek police are simply better armed.

Join us this Wednesday outside the Greek consulate to voice your anger at this heinous murder.

The Greek Consulate is located at

1 Kirklee Quadrant

Glasgow

Tel: 0141 334 0360

We shall gather there from 2pm this wednesday as our fellow workers in Greece down tools in a general strike to express their disgust with the police and the state.

Please bring whistles, drums and anything else that will make a noise.

Meanwhile Down At BNP HQ

If for some reason you do not have flash enabled it is well worth while for this video.

Do They Deserve To Have Their Details Splashed All Over the Web?

It’s been quite the chatter of the media today, the BNP’s dazzlingly inept security that is. There has also been talk over whether it is right to be putting these peoples details all over the shop for all and sundry to see. We do, after all, live in a democracy don’t we? People have the right to think what they like don’t they?

And The Lulz Continue

The leak of the entire BNP membership list onto wikileaks has caused something of a furor amongst its membership. As can be seen in this discussion thread they are realising that membership in a fascist organisation is not a very smart move.

I personally find it hilarious on the one hand seeing BNP members claiming the BNP is a ‘legitimate political party’ and that they have nothing to hide and on the other all the coppers, doctors, teachers and soldiers crying over the possibility of losing their jobs.

Why should it cause me such glee that these people would be losing their jobs?

Simple really. If I send my kid to school I do not want them being taught by a fascist. If I am having surgery I do not want the scalpel to be wielded by a fascist. See what I mean? These people are motivated by hatred for that which they perceive as being different. they are the enemy of my class and as such I delight i their suffering.

And A 1, And A 2 And A LOL!

The BNP have had their entire membership database put online.

You can find it here.

If you want to keep hold of it, for whatever reason, then you should use the scrapbook application in forefox and save it to a depth on 1 link to make sure you get it all.

All together now. LOL.

ROFL @ BNP Moron Simon Goodricke

The Anarchist Federation recently received a letter signed by BNP member and former police detective Simon Goodricke, the full text of which I’ll reprint below.
