Just wandered into town to see what was going on with this protest thing. Near as I can see there's a few of the English Defence Muppets standing around with a few placards and quite of lot of people standing around gawping at them including what looks like a fair sum from the United Against Facism folk.
Quite a lot of police including a helicopter buzzing about overhead. I've heard there's been about 30 arrests one of which was for somebody carrying a weapon of some sort. I don't know which team they were playing for.
Apart from that, not much going on it seems.
This is Moon Cat reporting for HH Uknow, about to go to the shop and get some groceries, Manchester.
ps If the EDL are a legit protesting organisation with no connections to the extreme right and/or as is alleged, former known football hooligans out for 'avin a larf', how come they hide their faces when being interviewed on telly?
