Waltham Forest Defeats the EDL

Walthamstow, London. Sat 1 Sep 2012


 
 People from across the community of all ages had come out to block the EDL march

 Other people stood on the route to show their opposition

 There were a couple of hundred EDL, surrounded by police

 It was tricky to photograph them

 some made signs towards the camera

 

  others shouted and stared
 
one man pushed between police to put his hand over my lens 

 

 

others threatened and pointed at me 

This looked rather like a Nazi salute, but I think she was trying to block the camera with her hand 

A man from Hull on his St George cross, 'Defender of England and Defenders of the Faith' with a Church of England symbol 

A woman in a Union Flag top 

A 'red beret' with paratroop wings on his sleeve and another man wearing a Swedish Defence League flag 

Not everyone was hostile. One man held his placard
'Everything God created Sharia Laws will Destory'
for me to photograph when I asked him.
