So I just read that someone has spray painted "Islam" on two war memorials in London.

Regardless of if it was some muslim protesters or some idiots trying UK start a fight, it's still disgusting.

Hope they are caught on cctv

Best to just clean it off and treat the act with the contempt it deserves by giving it as little attention as possible….

Some Idiot trying to stir tensions up even further. The behaviour of the EDF went beyond the gutter today with the football chanting at the place where Lee Rigby was murdered.

The BNP and EDL are every bit as vile as the clerics stirring up hate in their communities. How I miss being young and going on raids on NF gatherings

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

I saw a story on Twitter today about a Mosque in York inviting, embracing and befriending their local EDL. Another story of a Mosque raising funds for a local Synagogue.

Getting to know each other is the only real and long term answer.

The EDL have behaved appallingly today. The idiots defacing memorials have behaved appallingly. Those offering hatred to people wearing H4H t-shirts are behaving appallingly.

I am thinking of organising a wear H4H t-shirts day this week but I haven't been able to speak to them about it yet.

Totally with you...can't understand the mentality of those who will attack a whole culture because of the actions of a few who happen to follow that faith. Daft thing is these people don't seem to realise that they are playing into the hands of the terrorists as they react exactly as expected and cause more unrest.

As for the OP...whoever did it will be doing it for attention of some kind and I wouldn't be surprised at all if it was someone like a member of the EDL to try to keep the tensions high

I will contact them tomorrow. They have made a political statement by publicly refusing the money from the EDL. My point isn't about politicising the charitable cause but I take your point.

I just think that we have to take the heat out of the current madness and quiet, peaceful and almost benign action that can happen as you go about your daily tasks is the only way. Black socks and a t-shirt or something like that.

I think people forget that there are black people in our armed forces too.

Exactly! Its just ironic how the people going round preaching bad things about islam are doing exactly what they're protesting against!

Let's not forget either that just how many of these edl members are totally british? Chances are that somewhere along the lines they have descended from viking or roman invasions of england or when the irish came or anywhere really!

I'm not that up on history but I would say britian hasn't always been a christian country either!

Oh and all this about deporting all islam.. Does that mean we have to take back most americans and australians now?

The british have ionvaded many countries in it time and declared war on the natives there and done disgusting things.. Look what happened to native americans and that wasn't that long ago

Maybe its payback now..

Well as long as we don't start burning Islamic flags and effigies of religious leaders as has happened when cartoons about Allah were printed in papers.

You have to question why people do such things, and its not one sided it comes from multiple beliefs and rally points. Its a real shame we can't eject such people from the British Isles no matter what colour race or belief they have.

What we need is a harsher legal system! That's the real problem..

There are bad people in every walk of life and they do it here cos they can get away with it..

Its all so good and well saying deport people, but there are enough britisj nationals who do horrendous things.. We need a deterrant against all crimes!

Everyone needs to accept that only one person can be held accountable for their actions.. That we are all one race.. The human race

Where? Who cares there should be a charter set up by the government for all to live by. People would get a warning or possibly 2 but if they have no intention to living up to it then you take away their right to reside in this country. Landlords can do it with tenants from hell so why not residents of the British isles. They can apply to another country to take them in its up to them they had their chance.

I am finding the current climate frightening and devisive.

It is sad when you see comments such as "Send them back where they came from" especially as they are probably more British than I am.

Local Mosques have been defaced and I find that disgusting.

Its like going back to the 70's or 80's nd saying every Catholic was a bomber, every scouser was a theif. Or every football fan was a thug. There are far too many people jumping into the stereotypes!

Why can't people realise it was 2 narrowminded extremists, and actually think about thaat poor lad and his family.

Its an absolute disgrace the way things have gone on in this country!

Its not up for me, you or the government to supply an answer be they British nationals or not. If you take away the guaranteed right of someone to reside here you then get people sticking more to the rules and respecting them. You often here people saying Jail is an easy stretch so why not take away the guaranteed comfort zone.

How was the flag being used? Carrying the Union Flag isn't an offence but inciting hatred and rioting is. I don't know what this woman was doing but carrying the flag can't have been all she was doing. I should be arrested for handing out all those flags last year.

If people constantly break the rules, abuse other citizens and so on why should they have an automatic right to stay? Its their problem let them apply for citizenship in another country. On the other hand after 2 warnings they could stop being obnoxious undesirables and comply with the rules of the land if they wish to stay. Its not as though they don't have the choice is it? I mean over 50 million Britons do follow the rules with no problems so its not exactly hard to do so.

The reality is its not really Islamists its extremists who have gone far past deserving that title. And you can lump in the neo fascists along with them as they are all poisonous and have personal agendas and desire for power and control in reality. The cost to society is bad and we shouldn't let extremists corrupt people but then you would be limiting peoples right to expression no matter how heinous it is.

Watch the video... I'm usually the silent one who sits on the side but this has honestly shocked me.

Please, watch the video and decide for yourself if this woman was honestly causing offence. Please bear in mind that there is no violence, screaming or shouting involved, in fact, the woman's condition if anything, is a little more eye opening.....

There is a programme on Ch4 later this week explaining why people are sheep. The few can control the many as long as others don't offer an alternative. I would rather offer an alternative to EDL, Islamic, Moonie or any other bullshit designed to stir up hatred.

P.O. Box DE1 0NQ

On the morning of Wednesday September 16th 1840 one of Derby's Mill Owners, and the first Mayor of the Reformed Borough of Derby, 75 year old Joseph Strutt, presented the Town Council with the deeds to the Arboretum.

Thursday 17th, the whole town took the afternoon off work, and a procession, the like of which had never been witnessed in Derby, as 1500 people set out from Friargate for the Arboretum, that afternoon the Arboretum opened its gates to the public for the first time.

Over the years the Arboretum has incorporated a variety of buildings, statues and ornaments. Perhaps the best known locally is the Florentine Boar statue, which was originally placed on the site in 1806, when the land was Joseph Strutt's private garden. Strutt had commissioned William John Coffee, a Crown Derby sculptor, to make an earthenware copy of the bronze statue which he had seen when he once visited the Mercato Nuovo (New Market) in central Florence. The earthenware boar remained in place after the creation of the Arboretum until it was damaged (actually decapitated) during a German air raid on Derby on 15 January 1941

Then a few years ago some idiots thought that it might be a good idea to move it as it could be considered offensive to certain religions

The Boar is still there

"What I don't get with this country is that people ( the politicians ) talk a lot but got no balls to kick out or silence those who are trying or thinking of causing chaos whether there are religious or any kind of group...Talk talk talk talk but no action.

How can they let some poisonous minds rule in the name of Islam then come on national TV and say we are not supposed to blame the killing and attacks on Islam??? Rubbish. Call a cat a cat...

The reality is its not really Islamists its extremists who have gone far past deserving that title. And you can lump in the neo fascists along with them as they are all poisonous and have personal agendas and desire for power and control in reality. The cost to society is bad and we shouldn't let extremists corrupt people but then you would be limiting peoples right to expression no matter how heinous it is."

It's just who they're corrupting: the country's youth. Looking for answers and finding none in their communities and desperate to belong. Just sad.

"So I just read that someone has spray painted "Islam" on two war memorials in London.

Regardless of if it was some muslim protesters or some idiots trying UK start a fight, it's still disgusting.

Hope they are caught on cctv

Well as long as we don't start burning Islamic flags and effigies of religious leaders as has happened when cartoons about Allah were printed in papers.

You have to question why people do such things, and its not one sided it comes from multiple beliefs and rally points. Its a real shame we can't eject such people from the British Isles no matter what colour race or belief they have.

And put them where exactly? Do we need one country designated for the whole world to put its unwanted? Who do we colonise or annex to make that possible? What happens when there are so many of them that they become the economic super power?

Where? Who cares there should be a charter set up by the government for all to live by. People would get a warning or possibly 2 but if they have no intention to living up to it then you take away their right to reside in this country. Landlords can do it with tenants from hell so why not residents of the British isles. They can apply to another country to take them in its up to them they had their chance.

So the British nationals will be foisted on another country? There is no "where" on the planet to send people. Every "where" is another sovereignty/country/etc. This is a world problem not just a UK problem.

You are blinkered in the bigger picture the reality is we don't have to find them anything at all they have to apply for entry into another state. But like I said before if people are warned twice then continue to break the rules its their choice. If you remove the automatic right to reside in these isles peoples attitudes will change.

Well you can be narrow minded but if the automatic right to stay was removed then attitudes of people would change as the fear of ejection would be a huge deterrent.

It might be but if you remove peoples right to reside in Britain you would have 90% or maybe even a lot more sticking to the rules before the final warning. On the other hand a few thousand prefabs on South Georgia and they are away.

The video of the "lady" flying the flag was taken in oldham and spread on facebook by the publicity wing of the EDL "the british patriots society" this is also the same group who were posting to twitter images of an asian wedding in Glodwick claiming it to be a celebration of lees death luckily GMP quickly countered it to stop the intended trouble .

"so if i carry the flag on St Georges day...is that ok ??.. or would that offend ??...

I flew a union jack when England played football...

is it now an offence to fly/carry one in England.. ?, if so, can we please arrest the queen, i'm sure i saw one over her house at one point............

How was the flag being used? Carrying the Union Flag isn't an offence but inciting hatred and rioting is. I don't know what this woman was doing but carrying the flag can't have been all she was doing. I should be arrested for handing out all those flags last year.

Watch the video... I'm usually the silent one who sits on the side but this has honestly shocked me.

Please, watch the video and decide for yourself if this woman was honestly causing offence. Please bear in mind that there is no violence, screaming or shouting involved, in fact, the woman's condition if anything, is a little more eye opening....."

the flag had written "no more mosques" on it.. she was also arguing with any muslims that came along..

as for her condition.. why would she put herself in the position if she was pregnant!

Britian is based on immigration over the years.. many years.. how many of these members of edl etc are decendants of the roman and viking invasions or when the irish came and settled?

has britian from the beginning of time always been christian? it certainly hasnt always been church of england!

"

Because this wasn't a random act - but a preplanned 'demonstration'. The police were aware of the activity and were there to prevent potential violence. No comparison can or should be made to Woolwich.

And in response to the previous posters who believe the crap that went viral on the net about the woman with the flag - here's the statement released by GMP.

"GMP did not arrest a pregnant woman during tensions in Oldham yesterday, and no Union Flag was confiscated from her.

Chief Superintendent Catherine Hankinson said: “Yesterday (Saturday) afternoon, police became aware that a number of people had gathered in Oldham town centre who were shouting and had flags, some of which were provoking passersby.

“As a result there were tensions and some minor disorder.

“While we will always allow and help facilitate peaceful protest, we felt that the actions of these people threatened our community cohesion, so it was our duty to do all we could prevent tensions from escalating.

“Officers dealing with this altercation saw that a woman had a Union Flag and another flag which was highly inappropriate and in our view solely designed to further inflame tensions.

“This woman was therefore taken to one side, the second flag was taken from her and she understood that the flag was causing offence.

“At no point was she arrested, or did she have her Union Flag confiscated from her.”

The police don't. They act in the appropriate way to uphold the law - including making judgement calls as to the best way to diffuse potentially violent escalations in situations where one side is attempting to goad the other - be that with words, physical actions, signs or in this case - a flag!

There is a big difference between peaceful protest and demonstration and mindless idiots trying to stir uo trouble on their own doorstep.

dont talk daft, of course its right they took it if in their professional opinion as per statute it was offensive etc..

"Obi...the police should uphold peoples right to free speech. If anyone reacts violently to what someohes said then the police should arrest the violent person"

I guess you're not aware of the law relating to this then?

"The Public Order Act 1986 contains the offences of inciting or stirring up racial hatred. It prohibits the use of threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour, or displaying any written material which is threatening, abusive or insulting with the intention of stirring up racial hatred or where racial hatred is likely to be stirred up.

Racial hatred is defined as hatred against a group of persons in the United Kingdom defined by reference to colour, race, nationality - including citizenship - or ethnic or national origins."

The emphasis in this case is "displaying written material" "where racial hatred is likely to be stirred up".

Did they seriously think a flag with the words "No More Mosques" would not cause offence and be likely to result in violence?

As I previously said - mindless idiots!

we are not talking about state oppression here like other countries, this is about keeping a lid on at a time where some fuckwits would do anything to get a reaction..

the 'demo' was allowed and it was Policed..

In a democracy opinions are valid, yes. But those that are aired in public with the intention of causing trouble are not.

I'm a great believer in free speech and believe it or not we have possibly the most lenient rules regarding public demonstrations/protest compared to many countries worldwide - not just the usual suspects of China, the Middle East and Asia - but also mainland Europe!

But when people choose to abuse these freedoms with the intention of causing public disorder and to express offensive, racist or hateful opinions then as far as i'm concerned the police can step in a soon as they like!

How do you define 'inciting'? What if someone just does not like immigration? That is a genuine matter for public polic debate. Should that person be silenced by the police? That would be wrong and create a pressure cooker. Is that what yo want?

There's a difference between airing an opinion or viewpoint in an intelligent, lawful and peaceful manner - whether public or private - and spouting hate and deliberately inciting civil unrest and violence.

And if you can't tell the difference between the two then i'd suggest reading up on the law. It's there to protect both sides - the protestors and the general public. Not to side with anyone.

Can soneone tell me what h4h is please.

With regard to the defacing of war memorial by whoever it seens like an incitement to cause further conflict.

The mosque that invited the edl did a very good thing and to be fair to the edl they went in had brew aired their views and the muslims in their gave their views. I am not or have any intention of being in favour of the edl etc but give this set of folk who went for the chat some credit.

Personally i see the killing of lee rigby as a catalyst for ongoing problems which have been bubbling away for years. Integration is the key issue for me and if i am say at gym and folk are talking clear english and then suddenly talk another language this forms part of the problem in my eyes it makes me suspicious and goes back to the integration perception.

I have asked on occasions why not carry on in english and most times the folk do.

The issue is same with others like east europeans etc who do the same perceptions are key.

This is not paranoia just my take on things.

Yes. The definitions according to the law.

It really is common sense too - but as that seems to be lacking in certain posts on this thread i'm calling it a day.

And Floro - sadly I think you're right. Seems that as in day to day life there's plenty on site that like to stoke the flames rather than look at things with a sense of empathy, understanding and intelligence.

"How do you define 'inciting'? What if someone just does not like immigration? That is a genuine matter for public polic debate. Should that person be silenced by the police? That would be wrong and create a pressure cooker. Is that what yo want?"

I define 'inciting' by having "No more mosques" scrawled on a flag.

If someone does not like immigration, that that is up to them, but walking around with a banner saying no more blacks/asians/americans etc etc, then I see that as trying to cause a backlash, which the woman with the flag tried to achieve.

There is a massive difference between having a civilised political debate in the right setting and to having a protest with chanting "No more Mosques" and other choice chants that the delights of the EDL etc like to shout.

I am not saying people should not protest nor have a discussion on their political affiliations, I am saying the police were right to remove the flag.

Which is fine, but putting the power to decide into the hands of a police force that have shown themselves to be anything but impartial is a mistake IMO.

The fact that the hate preachers like Choudray are allowed to spread their poison without fear of repercussions, because the police are too frightened to act, just makes matters worse.

Apologies for the confusion. What I'm trying to say is there is a time and a place for political discussion, for example a political rally (or whatever it's called) or Question Time etc. There should not be any room for people to spout racist comments in any situation. I personally find it completely offensive from any race!

I am saying there is a right to freedom of speech, but there is a law that is there to stop people from spouting racial hatred, and I totally agree with that as it works on both sides. Unfortunately, the is a lot of red tape surrounding the freedom of speech, so the likes of Choudry (not sure on spelling) and Tommy Robinson manage to evade being arrested and sent to prison because of the aforementioned red tape.

Hope that makes sense.

A bit clearer. But there alreay laws on criminal damage that catch the incident of writing islam on the memrial.

There are already laws on incitement which catch the offence of inciting someone to commit violence or any other crie.

The sect five offence we are discussing here serves only to stop citizens having discussions that the authorities do not want us to have.Society belongs to its citizens not the police who are merely our servants To say that discussion is OK om Questiontime but ot elsewere shows tyranny

But it's not discussions is it? It's protests, the majority of them are peaceful and legal, it just so happens a select few decide to join them just for a fight or to antagonise, and yes I'm glad that those are dealt with by the police. So if that's tyranny then I am all for it.

Should w e end free speech because what have said has prompted you to want to shoot me? Surely the crime is yours ...the police should arrest you for violence and not me.

That's just it though, isn't it? Some behaviours, the shaping of some words, can lead to quite accurate predictions/forecasts that the reaction will be troubled, possibly violent. We don't say everything in our heads, we censor what we say in order not offend people. Or does the freedom of speech argument mean that we now just spout the first words that come to mind as hang the consequences?

All law has to be logical and consistent. It must not be arbitrary which is what some people here seem to be advocating.

Some here seem to say that the speaker has to secondguess whhow a complainant might react and also to predict how th police will interpret how a third party might react.

It is nothing to do with 'aying what the hell you like'. It IS to do with the rule of law and the lack of prior restraint.

It is the only way we can have a democracy which ALL of you should protect, especially at this time.

Sometimes,in trying to appear liberal,people actually become very illiberal and censorious. We have to remember our libgeral values or terror will have won.

"Seems like there were more policemen in this video than on the street of Woolwich where an innocent hero has been killed"

Firstly....he was not a 'hero', he was a serving British soldier who was murdered, that doesn't make him a hero....a hero is someone who does something heroic, an act above and beyond the call of duty in the case of a member of the armed forces, he was a VICTIM of a cold blooded murder.

He was the victim of the most horrific and despicable crime, one that has saddened me deeply as it was disgusting to see on our streets.

A soldier who ventures into a minefield of IED's in Afghanistan, not Once but Two times to carry out wounded comrades on his back....now that is a hero.

Secondly, are you REALLY suggesting that we have enough serving police officers to be on every street corner in London?.....because you really have no idea.

I've just read the news websites about this story. Good on the Parry's for standing up for what they believe in.

Normally this sort of this doesn't bother me, but I did notice the dual double nationality the head of the EDL used.

He said "This is a day of respect for our Armed Forces." I'm assuming he is referring to the British Armed Forces.

Then he goes on to say that "They've had their Arab Spring. This is the time for the English Spring".

I'm assuming he isn't aware then that men and women from across the Commonwealth can serve in the BRITISH Armed Forces.

In response to the question about EDL extremists and Miss Cheeky Chops' comment about Stephen Lawrence; these mindless thugs do not give a stuff about who gets in the way. Many years ago the NF came to Oldham and jumped on a group of 14 year old Asian lads. My dad happened to be in town that day and saw one of his pupils being assaulted and jumped in the middle to defend the CHILD. My dad spent that night sedated with a brain bleed after taking a kicking. My brother was about 8 at the time and witnessed it.

Do not tell me these mindless thugs are innocent because they are as bad as the scum who call themselves Muslim.

"EDL ultra extremists , really ?

How many people have they killed ? How many bombs have they discharged ? Keep things in perspective!

David Copeland the London nail bomber was in the BNP.

Maby EDL members have confuctions for hooliganism.

UKIP members have been photographed giving nazi salutes. They never killed anyone did they

Lol

What's so funny ?

UKIP ultra extremists !!!

So you wouldn't consider a nazi to be an ultra extremist ?

Members of the nazi party are in UKIP

? You have proof

Now you're just being silly.

You brought Nazis into this which was ridiculous and "maybe the EDL are football hooligans " another of your quotes

You are not guilty on maybes !

My fault I misspelt it. I meant many EDL members have confictions for hooliganism , football or otherwise.

And I thought giving a nazi salute was a form of ultra extremism which is what you asked for. "

My view ultra extremism is butchering a person in the street , discharging a car bomb launching a rocket attack or flying a plane into a building killing thousands

And yes people such as the hitler or Stalin that oversaw the killings of millions

That is certainly not UKIP and that is why I laughed

If one of your family commit a crime it does not make your whole family criminals

One last thing because people have concerns about immigration it does not make them racist

Immigration effects the whole country in every way however the left even centre parties band the word racist around and decry anyone with a different view to them as racist

This debate will never end, it's unfortunate to see the thread degrade into such a manor where individuals are having a poke at each other.

There was a post earlier about putting things in perspective with respect to who the EDL are and what have they done and what Muslims are and have done, the fact is not many can do that as everyone has their point of view and their own perspective on events. Maybe putting things in perspective in an unbiased manor is more appropriate

The fact is the murder of a soldier was wrong, the fire bombings were wrong, the knock on racial hatred is wrong, the whole ugly event is wrong, the stirring up tension is wrong, even this thread is wrong!!

Sorry OP, your intentions were probably of a good nature but it has brought out quite an ugly and disturbing side on this forum. Considering swingers are apparently open minded its sad to see such close minded views of people on people you dont know or understand.

I will ask certain individuals who (probably not openly) defend the actions of the EDL and support the backlash asians have to put up with one question, if you who think the EDL aren't right wing, aren't a rebranded NF / BNP & are only defending the peaceful people of this country regardless of what thier belief is try dressing in an asian outfit and walking past an EDL demo or congregation see what reaction your "heroes" give you or even better try living in asian community and see whether these so called 'extremists' actually do exist in such vast number or it's all just made up to get you to fear and then hate people

Well said. If you want to live here be proud to do so. If you hate us so much then go somewhere were you'll be happier. Of course lack of benefits might be a put off for many from doing so.
