Apparently a EDL organizer has sent a death threat to a Guardian Journalist. According to the Journalist
"the sender didn't think to email it from a fake account, so it is known this person - a Cardiff supporter with three convictions of violence, including two years jail for stabbing two Manchester United fans - was prominent in the creation of the English and Welsh Defence Leagues."

Could somebody please enlighten me as to what's going on? Is this the path the organisers of the EDL want to go down.

If this is true, I am disgusted that one of our members feels the need to threaten a journalist over an article.

We are for freedom of speech, not against it by issuing threats.

In some ways I doubt this is true though, because why would a member of the EDL issue a fatwa? Perhaps it's an infiltrator claiming to be one of us.

If true its not good we will of course like any element attract the criminals
never heard any racist chants at Leeds or Manchester. They like to take one snippet and make a big deal out of it this is what press folk do. There like to stir hatred with there over fabrication of lies. If they reported the truth instead what they would like the public to believe then that's a different matter
A WAY OUT FOR YOU NAZI SCUM THATS INFILTRATED THE EDL

Oh dear. I sincerely hope this isn't true and would challenge the Granuiad to produce the original - if they cannot this chap could be done for slander.

However, if they can produce evidence then this is very bad news indeed. Why on earth would anyone associated with the EDL (and worse in a leadership capacity) do something so utterly stupid?

If you click on the link embedded in the Guardian article "an organiser" it takes you through to another article saying:

It was signed "Simples".

If this is a lie then it cannot go unchallenged so the EDL will be issuing a denial today I presume?

I have sent an email demanding that the article be edited, or removed. Failure to do so , and legal action will follow.

I can't believe some of you actually believed something printed in the Guardian!!

Take these slandering f**kers to the cleaners. Not only a good way to finance the EDL but also FANTASTIC publicity.

Yes This could be construed, if false, as Slanderous Libel but I have to take my preverbal hat off to Members of this Movement who think to combat Extremism we must lower ourselves to their level.

Issuing a Fatwa is beautifully Ironic.

If this reporter knows who it is and feels threatened then he should act accordingly not publish a vague account of an email he received.

Most EDL guys are sound and i would trust them to watch my back anytime. This will either turn out to be a complete lie or the (alleged) member will be found out and action taken.
