I have been out campaigning with the Hope not Hate team on the Farley hill estate in Luton. In fairly miserable weather we did half the ward before the rain took it`s toll.
Leaflets for the remaining ward were left with local members of Muslims Against Crusaders who are also supporting our campaign, they will distribute the leaflets in the next couple of days.
The estate is the home to "many" of the leaders of the English Defence League and Tommy Robinson still drinks in the Bram Stoker tavern that is on the estate, the tavern also has a "Vlad the Impaler" theme night and quiz. The tavern is also rumoured to serve pints of pigs blood at discount prices.
As Hope not Hate walked around the estate many local residents came out in their "hundreds" to support us, and they all pledged to attend the UAF counter protest next Saturday, as Luton is a peaceful multi cultural community where everybody lives in harmony.
When we were driving back Brighton I noticed my friend who had accompanied me had turned into a dictionary, and then when I entered my mansion there was rhubarb growing out of the walls. Report written by Nick Lowles.
