Bradford, London - It might be called anti-Indian, or anti-Islam the fact of the matter is that whites have been engaged in what appears to be racial, and religious mistrust.
The conflict began when a crowd of some 250 Unite Against Fascism (UAF) activists approached the gathering place of some 700 EDL supporters at Bradford's Urban Gardens where the police were holding their demonstration in check.
The EDL members who carried signs reading "no more mosques" and "no to sharia (law)", threw whatever they could at the UAF protesters before the police contained the clashes.
The demonstration by the English Defense League occurred in Bradford, a city with one of the country's largest Pakistani and Muslim communities. Bradford was also the scene of violent riots in 2001.
The English Defence League (EDL) is an English far-right group (Far right politics usually involve supremacism) formed in 2009. Its mandate is to oppose what it considers as the spread of Islam, Sharia law in England. It, however, presents itself as being multi-ethnic and multi-faith.
The Unite Against Fascism organisation describes itself as a national campaign with the aim of alerting British society to the threat of the far-right. It is stated at Wikipedia that Conservative leader David Cameron is a signatory.
