According to a university report by King’s College London named ‘A Neo-Nationalist Network: the English Defence League and Europe’s counter-jihad movement’, the EDL has used recent cases of grooming to build support.
Alexander Meleagrou-Hitchens of KCL’s International Centre for the Study of Radicalisation, one of the report’s authors, said:
Quote: “The EDL has successfully exploited concerns about the sex-grooming gangs in the north of England, turning the issue into one of Islam versus the west.”The EDL and its affiliates have worsened community tensions and further promoted ideas that helped inspire the Norwegian mass killer Anders Breivik, the report said. One tactic used by the EDL to try to boost its support is that of rape allegedly committed by ‘Muslim’ men as evidence of “Islamisation” of the west.
We at EDLReview have documented many cases of the EDL and its affiliates using grooming to further their causes.
