The EDL's Facebook site has been openly boasting about how they have manipulated the voxpop poll, and they have allowed their members to post plenty of racist comments that as well as Britain banning items of Muslim clothing, they should also deport all Muslims from the UK: -
See the screenshot below, noting the hardcore Blood & Honour-style racist comments from regular EDL forum contributors "Hugo Hurley" and Sonny English N White: -
(If these two hardcore neo-nazi creeps happen not to be on the dole, lets hope their employers can discover what they get up to in their spare time, and give them the sack!)
And (the equally racist loser) James Barrett calls for each and every EDL member to erase the cookies on their computers to vote upto 50 times each.
Thank goodness general and local elections are not run online or else the BNP would have got into parliament.
With the same upperclass capitalist millionairre who funds the Holocaust-denying Swedish Democrats, Alan Lake, pumping money into their Islamophobic campaigns, they are finding more ways to stick their tentacles of hate into all escehlons of British society, and they must be opposed by a broad unity of all radical political groups.
It's time to stop the in-fighting and recriminations, and destroy the riot-starting EDL before it gets out of hand.
Anybody who trolls on this and other sites trying stress that a handful of tokenistic self-loathing EDL members "of colour" are proof the EDL aren't racist need only remind everybody how the EDL's Facebook moderators refuse to ban the likes of Hugo Hurley and Sonny English N White from posting hardcore racist bile.

The Swedish Democrats are like a cross between the BNP and the NF.

On Bebo, Unionist EDL members (fron Belfast, now working with the EDL leadership) are posting genuine authentic Combat 18 Videos (see the above links).

Any research into propaganda will reveal this, and no surprise that the far right EDL are continuing this trend, only they are stupid enough to discuss this popular method on a public forum.

So yes even without the EDL nuts voting in the poll it'd still have swung in favour of banning. Many also seem to forget that a sizeable proportion of the older generations in this country grew up when racism and distrust of other cultures was institutionalised and in some cases actually encouraged. That will have stayed with them for life. I used to work as a carer in a home for the elderly and racist views amongst the residents towards asian members of staff was commonplace, some residents would actually refuse to be assisted by non-white staff and these people still used to go out and vote come polling day in the elections. Scary stuff.
The real problem isn't the outward displays of racism by the EDL but the subtle kind which has become entrenched subconsciously in the general population.
EDL = waste of time
Wrong!

No it wouldn't, it would simply have shown how little interest the public have in polls on minorities run by TV stations.
This 'poll' is simply an attempt by this station to jump on the bandwagon of what the French are doing. They do it because they are mindless inconsiderate goons.
We can't have that in this country because it doesn't work. Why would we want to tell women what they can and can't wear? Women fought for their emancipation and won the rights they now enjoy. If a muslim pious woman wants to wear a burkha she shouldn't need to ask the permission of a man who looks like he's got a sausage for a head and spends his time marching up and down the street trying to hide the fact that he's a secret Nazi!
And why are we, again, publicising the EDL. They are just white supremacist's. Shouldn't they be wearing white sheets and marching down the streets with burning crosses?
I've had a look at this and if you type English Defence League into Google you get around 6.5 million hits.
IM anarchists and UAF shares some of the responsibility for this!
