Question about EDL

Ok, I saw that documentary on BBC about the EDL. Obviously the way it was edited was ambiguous. I disagree with the EDL about a lot of stuff, but from what I've seen on these boards I do not believe the attempt to portray the EDL as racist. I found that documentary quite moving - especially regarding Luton.

But, there was this point when the presenter of the documentary was pointing out all the flags that were waving at the EDL demo. Sure, Israel was there. But he seemed to make a bit of an issue about a rainbow flag there. I know EDL is not political, but I was wondering what group was waving that flag? I found it a bit hard to believe - like, would a homo group really be welcome on that demo? Cos the BBC made a big attempt to show that there were lots of BNP on that march - and generally nationalists seem to be pretty authoritarian when it comes to social issues like gayism.

I know there is a good history of liberal restance to Islam - like Pim Fortuyn - but still, could a gay group turn up to one of those marches without worrying about having the S kicked out of them?

Take Islam out of the equation and you are left with a wide variety of people, which includes people from other religions, other nationalities - gays are human too. Islam has no tolerance for gays. We are all in this together.
