Indeed, it seems that all these deaths are caused by government in general then. Perhaps we should abolish government altogether and try a bit of anarchy, then the death rate would drop dramatically? Actually, less government is in general a good thing and would help in all sorts of areas.
We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell] |

As mortality rates were improving it would be the case that fewer people died than would otherwise have been expected thanks to government policy.

To be honest at lot of people on here keep talking about EDL which may be an unfair link and in fact the anti-racism sites also mention FLA in the same breath as the other groups. At the end of the day you're wasting you're time on here. Have a word with the whoever writes articles like this if the tenuous connections between FLA founders and actual far-right groups are misleading. These are the sort of people that fuel misinformation. Most on here are actually supportive. appologies mate i can see why you thought of the FLA as such, as sadly the stand up to rascism group who are a front for the disgraced socialist workers party are a far left extreme radical group who are going out of their way to demonise us, we have done nothing to give them any reason to call us a far right group and they are now saying we are sexist because of the "lads" name lol even though we have a ladies alliance! but you are right i probably am waisting my time on here but im hoping the many people who are on the fence get to here the truth about the FLA and the best way to find out is to join the group or even better come on the next march, you're more than welcome to send me a pm johnfirewall and i can add you to the group and you can make your own mind up.

[Link] Some good points and some twaddle too. Right wing groups will try and ride the coat tails of the FLA. As long as the FLA get them to sling their hook then great. I felt the article played down the far right elements trying to be involved. I think it's worth having a look at the Facebook profiles of some of those who follow the FLA. They're certainly not anti racist like the FLA wishes to be seen as. Have a word with the leaders of the group and see if they can arrange a march alongside some anti terrorism Muslim groups. That would send the best message of not being defeated to IS

[Link] for balance... Edinburgh today.
SUTR leafletted matches over several weeks and was well received. A unity statement was issued and backed by the STUC plus all the major trade unions, political, football and community organisations. On the day the SUTR unity rally had national and local banners from EIS and Unison, speeches from the SNP, Labour and Green parties, the Muslim Women’s Association and many more. Statements of support were read out from the newly elected Scottish Labour leader, Richard Leonard, SNP MPs and Jews for Peace. While the slogans of the Stand up to Racism rally focussed on unity, VAT and FLA claims not to be racist or extremist were belied by their speeches which focussed exclusively on attacking Islam. The FLA has claimed to be drawing a clear line on far right involvement in its activities. But that pretence was dropped with the speakers at the Edinburgh rally. These included Ex English Democrat candidate and far right activist Toni Bugle, Bill Weir who spoke on an English Defence League demo a year ago, and Mo Fyaz, an associate of Tommy Robinson.
