Yes I read this as well…… and the Police / Bradford City council were quite right to stop it too.

This ‘parade’ was deliberately routed to go through an inner-city area of Bradford that was the scene of race riots seven years ago…. in 2001. They could have had their parade pretty much anywhere in Bradford …. but oh no, they wanted to march with their flags etc in this particular part.

The organisers were in fact offered an alternative route, which avoided this particular area, but they refused to accept it and called off the event instead.

They said that they wanted to include parts of Bradford where race riots had taken place “to educate young people”.

Yeah right … sure they did. Nothing to do with waving St George’s flags in Asian faces and trying provoke a re-run of the riots then eh?

so its ok for the asians to riot and make bradford a no go area then is it ?
should we brits go on a 3 day riot to get our own way exactly as the asians did. the bradford riots were asian istigated and it was mainly black/west indians that were the targets of their venom. but hey, cant upset the muslims can we.

Your point is still lost on me Wasp

This march was ALL communities in Bradford- yes, thats right, British Muslims waving the flag of St George alongside all others.

If your point is that the parade was stopped from going through the area of the riots then its true it was, but the organisers were offered decent alternatives they could have taken (which not ideal would still have made pukka TV and media headlines)

Should we be able to march whereever and whenever we want? Maybe we should and maybe this would have gone a long way to supporting a more harmonious society in Bradford….n maybe it wouldnt

we’ll never know

my point is quite simple. the people of bradford. including muslim hindu and sikh as well as english. wanted to have a st georges march. the facist governments boot boys, [the police] said no, quite simply because they wanted to appease the terroriat supporters who hate everything british, and are making cities such as bradford and birmingham, no go areas for english and genuine multi ethnic supporters such as the school children and different faith groups, who want to show that they stand together against racism. the mslim clerics are behind this, and the police are towing their facist line. clear enough for ya ?
