This is on the front page today. Is the facebook page genuine EDL?

I have had a look and there is some stuff on there I'm not happy about.

There is an official EDL page but I can't see anything on it about the Cadets.

Are you sure it's the Official EDL bebo page? Only people from the EDL hierarchy are admin's and if anything was posted of a racist nature it would have been one of the ex admins.

I don't know, this was one of my initial questions. If it aint genuine EDL then my local paper needs putting straight. If it is genuine someone needs to have a word with them.

It's a Facebook page, anyone can set up a Facebook page with the name EDL in it, it doesn't mean that it is connected to use in anyway. What's interesting is that they have a quote from a 'UAF spokesman', strange that they didn't have a quote from an 'EDL spokseman' but then it could be the usual made up story from a left wing NUJ journo.

The paper cant even get the name right. Even when they have quoted an official spokeswoman.

It is the Air Training Corps,and the paper is calling it the Air Training Organisation.

Sorry, just an observation

And thanks for getting an EDL spokesperson. Its great to see they are unbiased towards us and the UAF.
Journo's are great people ^o)

so if its a false site should it not be reported to the news paper, surely they would run the story again stating it was a stitch up set up by smelly people
as journos are fair and unbiased :)

This was my concern. If it is a false site then the journo needs putting straight. If it a proper site and there was racist comments then something needs doing about that.
