Complete article & video:The EDL started in Luton last year and has become the most significant far-right street movement in the UK since the National Front in the 1970s. It claims to be a peaceful, non-racist organisation opposed only to "militant Islam". But many of its demonstrations have ended in confrontations with the police after some supporters became involved in violence as well as racist and Islamophobic chanting.
The group has held demonstrations across the country but its plan to get thousands of activists to Bradford is its most provocative yet. Anywhere between 5,000 and 10,000 EDL supporters are expected to descend on the city on the final weekend of this month and there are fears of widespread unrest.
