EDL Leader Threatens The Whole British Muslim Community

The EDL were not welcome at the borough of Tower Hamlets on the 3rd September 2011. The video speaks for itself, highlight various (non-Muslim) residents speaking out against the EDL and their plans to march.

Despite listening to British citizens... The EDL still attended. EDL leader Tommy Robinson (Stephen Yaxley-Lennon) made a defiant speech during the protest, perhaps addressing his supporters with a speech that perhaps, did more harm than good.

Quote: “Every single Muslim watching this video on Youtube, on 7/7, you got away with killing and maiming British citizens... you had better understand that we have built a network from one end of the country to the other end... and the Islamic community will feel the full force of the English Defence League if we see any of our British citizens killed maimed or hurt on British soil ever again.”

This completely undermines what the EDL stands for, and tears the Mission Statement to pieces, which states that the EDL only opposes ‘Islamic extremism’. Here, the whole Muslim population of Britain is being attacked head-on... by the leader himself!

Leader breaks British law the same day

As well as disregarding the EDL’s aims and ambitions, Tommy Robinson also broke British law the same day. He was banned from attending the march beforehand and was arrested later in the day for breaking his bail conditions.
