Around 150 supporters of the far right EDL visited Sowerby Bridge on Saturday morning. The group walked into a local bar and threatened to burn the place down, some of the group were wearing jack boots and Nazi costumes, the group became abusive and threw severed pigs heads and buckets of blood around the bar. The group then walked around to where the drinks are served and began helping themselves to the alcohol. The police were outside but decided on the interests of community relations not to intervene. No arrests were made.
Later on the group returned to Halifax, where several hours later a massive England emblem was painted on the hill that over looks Halifax.
