EVERY advocate of a better world should be deeply alarmed by an estimated 10,000 people taking part in a far-right march in London last weekend in support of Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, more widely known by his assumed name “Tommy Robinson.”
Racist slogans were chanted. Nazi salutes were thrown. Mobs went on the rampage. The police were violently attacked.
Yaxley-Lennon is a co-founder of the English Defence League and a former British National Party member.
The demonstration was addressed by Ukip’s Gerard Batten MEP and Dutch far-right leader Geert Wilders, who had previously been banned from entering Britain when Gordon Brown was prime minister.
