The ‘regulars’ in Rochdale

The same old bunch of Biffers went to Rochdale yesterday. As usual it was just the same old faces who seem to spend  all their time trolling up and down the country pretending they represent the masses. They seem to have had a nice time though.

As usual they weren’t as successful as they claimed. A quick look at the Biffer’s own pictures presents a very different story. There aren’t thousands of people clamouring to receive their free copy of the BF rag (you know – the one they charge ‘patriots’ a quid for). There are no hordes of eager Rochdale folk demanding the chance to join ‘Folding’ Golding’s new Nazi Reich either. All we see is a bunch of sad racists desperately trying to interest Rochdale’s inhabitants in a propaganda campaign that really isn’t going anywhere.

We hope it was worth getting up early for. They must have set off before the birds to get there for 6am. Standing outside a mosque any later would have been much too scary for Folding and Dutchy’s battle-hardened army. Muslims in Mosques are terrifying when they’re awake, you know. They say prayers and everything!

Perhaps that’s because they didn’t tell anyone they were coming. Do we think they knew that they wouldn’t be welcome in Rochdale? EBF can’t think of any other reason for this ‘brave’, early morning sneak photography outside the town’s mosques.

The way Folding went on in his speech to camera yesterday you’d think Rochdale was the Islamic centre of Europe. No wonder they were too scared to wait until the Mosques were open before they turned up. If only they’d taken a moment to google the actual demographic they might have felt a little braver.

So what can we learn from yesterday’s goings on in Rochdale?

It’s the same lesson we always learn. The Biffers still can’t count!

Biffers back the wrong horse again!

Britain First have made a really big deal out of this fiasco. Not that they particularly cared about the case itself – just the propaganda opportunity to demonise another innocent Muslim. They even got the details wrong, describing Victoria Wasteney as a nurse (she’s an occupational therapist) & falsely reporting that she’d been sacked. Since they’re using the case to fundraise we might expect them to get at least the basics right.

The truth is that this woman was disciplined for bullying her staff and for pushing her religious beliefs on to vulnerable mentally ill patients. Both of these things are serious issues and she deserved to be disciplined. The only real question is why the trust she worked for tried so hard to accommodate her unprofessional behaviour before eventually taking disciplinary action.

Britain First would like you to believe that this is an example of oppression perpetrated by Muslims with a beef against Christians. But nothing could be further from the truth.

Don’t just take our word for it. You can read the full record of the proceedings here.

Don’t believe the biffers!

Armed Forces Biffers? Well -at least the banner’s real!

Britain First has just bought a new banner. They had to – Antifa stole their last one from the brave Steve Lewis in Trafalgar Square (which was funny).

Here’s a picture of their shiny new replacement, this time guarded not by ‘Lewis the loser’ but by ‘Lomax the ex squaddie’, Commanding Officer of the new BF armed forces division.

Anyway, we thought we’d take this opportunity to expose their uber-effective process for signing up ex-servicemen and women. We looked at their joining processes for former (and allegedly serving) military Biffers.

We wanted  to be fair so we’ve also researched the main proper political parties (and UKIP too). Obviously no other parties have a secret armed forces division, but some have discounted rates of membership for the armed forces.

Only UKIP, Tory and Labour offer forces discounts. For the tories it’s £15, UKIP match BF at £8 and labour (the treacherous, communist, Muslim loving labour party) disgracefully offers “ARE” armed forces £1 pound a year membership. But wait – there’s more…


Let’s consider what details are required to join these various bastions of British political diversity as an armed forces member….

Only the Tory party asks for a service number, the individual identifying PIN that would prevent WALTs from ripping off the parties by claiming a discount they didn’t deserve.
Labour simply asks for unit and …

UKIP just have a tick box.

Armed forces BF 2Britain First doesn’t ask for a service number either. To put it another way, they ask for nothing that  would prove their ‘military’ personnel really are who and what they claim to be. They could be fantasy dreamers, wannabe warriors with Walter Mitty streaks a mile wide. 


What they do ask for is very interesting indeed… 

 

“What rank did you reach”

“What unit did you serve in” and…..

“Must have previously served in the military”.

The word ‘previously’ is significant. Serving military personnel are not able to involve themselves in political (or thinly-veiled paramilitary) organisations such as Britain First.

The question about previous criminal convictions is interesting too. As is the demand to know about rank, experience of active service in conflict zones and what skills the serviceman or women learned in the military. This isn’t the information needed to honour past military personnel with a reduced membership fee. This is a curriculum vitae for a paramilitary force.

Now why on earth would the Biffers want to start one of those?

Who supports Exposing Britain First?

EBF multiculturalWe are often told that we are all ‘unwashed Lefteyes’ with mutlicoloured hair. We are ‘Communists’, we are ‘traitors’ we are ‘paedos’ and ‘terrorist sympathisers’ – among other things. Well, we’re not. I’ve been supporting EBF since the group first started out and I have made many friends there – and they are all different.

Some ARE ‘lefteyes’, no doubt about it – unwashed or not, I don’t know, I haven’t met them all.

One is a Communist, a nice, working class Communist who just wants this weird thing called ‘equality’ for everyone. You could definitely count him as a ‘Lefteye’ I think it’s safe to say.

One EBF friend does have multicoloured hair, if you count the many shades of Henna hair products, pretty much like the ones Jayda Fransen seems to use.   ALL of them are people who love their country. Not traitors.  They love the diverse communities they live in, they love all the influences our immigrants have had on the country, from Fish n Chips to Ice Cream, from Tikka Masala, to tea. They appreciate the contribution immigrants have made here and they like the fact that we can offer a safe haven for asylum seekers – albeit not as much as we could. None of them are ‘paedos’. All my friends are rightly disgusted by any such offence and have every sympathy with victims. All my friends think that more needs to be done to bring offenders to justice and to support victims; all of them want no more cover ups. No-one makes any distinction between Muslim offenders or non-Muslim offenders – and we all know that Britain First really mean ‘brown skinned’ when they say Muslim. The offence is equally abhorrent whoever commits it.

Nor are we terrorist sympathisers.  Terrorism, coming from any quarter is just awful, the suffering and death too awful for words. We all believe that ISIS needs to be dealt with but none of us have the answers. Not for lack of talking about it, not for not wishing to know, but because its’ complicated. There is no panacea and we all believe that there are many variables that go towards radicalising people, people from all backgrounds, not just Muslims.

BF compassion EBFMany of us think that Britain First are contributing to the radicalisation process in two ways. They are alienating Muslims here, marginalising them and making some defensive about their religion, potentially pushing them towards the waiting arms of those few who would turn them. Britain First are also radicalising non-Muslims by creating fear and hatred and supporting comments about attacks on Mosques. Most of all this happy band are all different. We are men and women, Muslims and Jews and Christians and atheists and Labour party members and Conservatives and older people and young people and bus drivers and teachers and shop workers and office workers and factory floor workers and nurses and black and brown and white and gay and straight and pagan and dinner ladies and fire station personnel and a cycle shop owner and a greengrocer and a councillor – so many ordinary people. Just ordinary people.

Some have been to a march or two, like the anti Pegida march in Newcastle where 1,500 people went and peacefully said they did not want Pegida in Newcastle, some went to London for the March 21st march against racism, many have not been on a march in their life.  We lie all over the country, and I mean ALL over the country – we WILL get that get together organised ONE day. But we are just ordinary people, and we oppose Britain First.

And opposing Britain First doesn’t mean we give a green light to paedophiles or terrorists and it doesn’t make us traitors.

Simples.

Biffers’ day out in Dudley

How do you feel about democracy?

What about self-determination?

What’s your view on local people having control over local decisions?

BF EBF Burn dudley mosqueThis Saturday Britain First will be trampling over all the above principles. They’ll be invading the West Midlands town of Dudley in protest at the democratic, self-determination of Dudley’s people. They’ll be shipping in as many outsiders as they can muster to protest in the town because the locals made a decision that Paul Golding happens to disagree with.

Like their political inspiration, UKIP, Britain First talks a lot about local decision-making, about democracy and about self-determination. But only when the decision-makers agree with them. Any council that disagrees with Britain First can expect busloads of outsiders to descend upon their town to protest about stuff that really isn’t any of their business. Individuals who oppose either Britain First or UKIP can expect angry biffers to doorstep them in an effort to curtail their freedom of speech.

BF Bullying meme EBFThat’s not democracy. That’s fascism. That’s the politics of hatred and the bully boy tactics of Hitler’s SA.

We can only imagine what they’d do if they ever got any actual power.

If you’re unfortunate enough to be in Dudley this weekend be warned that the Nazis are coming to town and experience shows us that when that happens it’s rarely pretty. If Britain First’s ‘pre demo’ propaganda is to be believed they’ll be out in force. The beefers claim around 2,000 fascists will be swarming into Dudley and even allowing for their usual exaggeration West Midlanders can probably expect at least a couple of hundred.

We would never advocate anyone putting themselves at risk – these people can be dangerous (especially in a crowd) but if you are planning on opposing Britain First on Saturday you might find this leaflet useful. Feel free to print off your own copies for distribution on the day.

No pasaran!

Exposing Britain First official press release

EBFBlogger Britain First, EBF, Fact-checking , , , , ,

At EBF, We have a sworn and solemn duty to fight against extremism in all its forms, and in any way we can. Recently Britain First leader Paul Golding has taken an interest in one of our volunteers Anne Pepper, claiming to have information on her.…

EBF Categorically denies this to be true, however we believe it is the moment to tell the truth about Anne Pepper.

The story begins with a problem : EBF was established in order to expose the lies Britain First post every day, however soon after the organisation was founded, we ran into a fundamental issue : We had largely underestimated the ability of Britain First to post complete bullshit, In mid-2014 they were posting at a rate of 6bph (6 Bullshit Posts per hour), however since that date it has been increasing exponentially, we soon reached a point when we realised that our hard working volunteers simply couldn’t keep up with the quantities of bullshit BF was producing, and we had to provide counselling to many of our volunteers, as after working on exposing 2 or 3 posts, they experienced a profound loss of hope for humanity.

In order to resolve this issue, our hard working scientists came up with an idea to streamline the process of Debunking the tons of bullshit that they post every day, we needed to subcontract : and after hours of calculation, we found the perfect candidates : Intellectually superior to Britain First, and thus capable of debunking their bullshit; however unaffected psychologically by the content they have to deal with : Ladies and Gentlemen, we speak of course, of Goats.

Under conditions of absolute secrecy, we purchased a goat and brought it to our underground top secret Lab in Yorkshire, where we taught it to debunk, for the first time ever we had a weapon capable of fighting back against the tide of bullshit BF publish every day : we had a Goat. which, Given the correct quantities of hay, grain, grass and, of course, highly enriched uranium, could withstand the daily onslaught of BF stupidity.

We named this goat Anne, She chose the surname Pepper, like the pig, but classier of course.

We understand this will surprise, and even anger some of you, and we are deeply sorry for not telling you the truth earlier.

And of course, we assure you that Anne’s welfare is our top priority, and she is considered an invaluable member of our team, and a brilliant Goat.

We are ‘Exposing Britain First’

EBFBlogger Britain First, EBF, Politics , , , , , , ,

EBF BF leaflet pic 1We are a diverse group of people. We are dedicated to the promotion of truth about Britain First and the divisive lies it tells. We believe that all people have equal value and that discrimination against anyone diminishes us all.

We believe in honesty and we believe in harmony between citizens regardless of creed, race or sexual orientation.

We believe that extremism is a problem best left to security services to deal with.

We do not believe that Britain First shares any of these values. Britain First is a money-making scam that exploits peoples’ fears and prejudices for profit. In the process Britain First is radicalising the British people and creating tensions that only make things worse for British people.

We believe that it is extremely important to expose the lies of Britain First through fact-checking, information giving and (very often) through humour.

Who are Britain First?

Britain First is a political party. At least they’re registered as a political party. They don’t act like one though. They act like an online shop selling shoddy merchandise from foreign sweatshops to British ‘patriots’ at grossly inflated prices.

They also go around bullying old men and shouting at children. They have a facebook page where they dredge up old news or post badly photoshopped bollocks to slander Muslims (who they hate).

Most of all – they pretend to be Britain’s only hope of salvation from the threat they’ve imagined to scare people into giving them money. They claim to support troops and veterans but none of the money they raise goes anywhere near a squaddie or even a Chelsea pensioner.

If you really want to know who Britain First are download our anti Britain First brochure here. And if you’re unlucky enough to have them come to your town print some off and dish them out to passers by.
