I really do not understand this.Watching the video that is uploaded by @everythingedl I am struggling to see where you are coming from.I did however see a female member get attacked by a man of Asian appearance.A little bit of investigating shows me the case was in fact the leader of the EDL Tommy Robinson who was in court for attempting to prevent the burning of our poppies on remembrance day 2010 which would explain the EDL presence at the court.There must have been a fair bit of trouble, you are right,as there were 8 arrests including 1 from the EDL.What would concern me upon watching the footage would be how these Asian men managed to get inside the EDL group to attack this female?The police seemed to be very low on numbers although as you can see from the footage this is unsuprising as the EDL seem to be more concerened with taking photographs of each other up to the point where the Asian man was initially dragged away whilst assaulting the police.He then returns with a lot of other Asian men to attack the EDL supporters and the police.All in all i don't understand how there can be so much imparity between the video footage supplied by @everythingedl and the reports i have read today and last night from your publication? A quick look at @everythingedl also seems to show,on you tube comments,an alarmingly large number of comments that lean towards celebrating the assaulting of this woman who just seemed to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.ie in front of this Asians mans fist as he swung it. All in all a poor article, poorly reported that has very little basis nor truth once compared to the footage available from @everythingedl who in turn from their you tube channel appear to be very pro violence towards EDL and this female victim. Most disturbing.
