For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it. If you do you are labelled an extremist. However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

Applications for asylum were up 14% on the previous 12 months after a surge in migrants reaching Britain in small boats, according to official figures. So much for Labour's promise to "smash the gangs".

It is simplistic to blame the recent spike in wildfires on climate change, writes Paul Homewood. A more likely cause is the rewilding of uplands, supposedly to cut carbon emissions, and poor management of forested land.

Bolton: antifascist bravery as English Defence League march cut short

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | other press author Sunday March 21, 2010 17:56author by Darren C - League for the Fifth International (pc) Report this post to the editors

The fascist English Defence League (EDL) suffered a defeat in Bolton yesterday as plans for another demonstration intended to whip up racism in the local community and terrorise the town in the name of ‘anti-Islamic extremism’ were thwarted. In past demonstrations in Luton, Leeds and Stoke, the EDL have been able to terrorise black and Asian communities and gay districts. In Bolton the brave determination of anti-fascists protestors meant the EDL weren’t able to riot again, in the face of extreme police brutality.

All that is fine but does not reflect that the UAF came out looking just as bad. The UAF is an organisation that allows the left to focus on Anti Racism but it is supported by the Tories and big business so there is more to that. It is a quid pro quo arrangement. The establishment does not have to worry about the left agitating about economic injustice, while the SWP/UAF receive funding and a very public platform.

I don’t think the EDL will have seen their day out in Bolton as a defeat . They were able to mobilize large numbers to the town , and the UAF didn’t have the forces to drive them off the street . That would be a victory as far as the right-wing group was concerned .
A Bristol meeting of the UAF had been seriously disrupted by EDL members a couple of nights previously according to an eye-witness account on indymedia Bristol . The eye-witness describes how on March 17 ,thirty anti–fascists allowed ten thuggish and half- drunk EDL supporters to intimidate and film their meeting which was all about “standing up to the fascists” .

The chair on the night allowed the fascist group’s spokesperson - a serving soldier - address what was an obviously scared gathering . The serving soldier said that he and his friends were driven by fear of Islam : he had come to the meeting “ because he had serious problem with UAF campaigning against them and that they were not racists or fascists the (sic) were anti-Islamic extremists .” Eventually the anti-fascists called the police to remove the fascists from the venue.

The only people to come out of the Bolton demo smelling of roses were predictably the “over-stretched and under-resourced police” .The thin blue line intervening between rival groups of mindless extremists who had nothing better to do than disturb and disrupt the lives of ordinary law- abiding Boltonians going about their peaceful weekend activities. That’s how it was spun in the corporate media

Indymedia UK has surprisingly little to say about last weekend’s events . It suggests to me that the Islamophobic EDL has taken the left in Britain by surprise . Not the local Muslim youth fortunately – their intervention salvaged the anti-fascist honour on the day .
