March for England

[Dick Head]

The Argus is receiving reports of the first clashes between March for England and anti-fascist protesters outside the Sea Life Centre in Madeira Drive.

Police have intervened after a scuffle.

It's a lovely day and I think I'm not going for a Sunday afternoon stroll along the seafront today.

I thought this was a thread about one of our DS squad getting called up.

was just out for a run, and as I headed from the Peace Statue to the Pier I knew something was going on, never seen so many police on our seafront...only lived in Brighton 3 years but hey-ho. Was turned around at that ramp before the pier and headed home...does anyone know how far down the road is shut? How many protesters are expected? What is the route they are expected to march?

I also did and to be fair he should definitely be playing at his age group for England!

Is this a warm-up event for the Children's Parade?

Personally I'd rope off an area on the downs and let each of the moronic groups slug it out. Dig a big hole so they can just throw in the dead. Save a load of taxpayers money.

The Argus have got a live update feed here. It looks like another peaceful family march. Why Brighton FFS?

Seems like you were never intending to go for a stroll along the front, you just wanted to put this thread up.

Not quite, very similar. The marchers' average intelligence though does not exceed a 10 year old.

Is this a warm-up event for the Children's Parade?

Yes, a bit more low key and less violent on the ears.

Probably the best idea that someone will come up with today.

Bet the old bill love it, bit of overtime on the coast at our expense, a mr whippy ice cream, wankers. Why don't they treat the troublemakers like they would if it was a football crowd and bang em up?

I might have done a few years ago.

Argus reporting a young woman beaten up by the March for England cretins.

If true not nice. The same thing happened last year to one of the March For England women.

Also reporting that many Antis are being arrested and many being asked to remove their face masks.
My guess is that usually more are arrested from the counter demonstrators.

Who or what are the EDL defending against England?
