English Defence League Dudley

Saturday 3 April 2010: About 3000 English Defence League (EDL) protestors marched on Dudley town centre under heavy police escort to protest against the construction of a new "mega-mosque".

Clashes broke out at the protest rally point when EDL supporters took offence to being "caged in". Containment fences were torn down and hundreds of EDL protestors broke police lines, charged into the streets of Dudley and in the direction of the Unite Against Fascism counter protest.

Riot police soon contained the lose EDL groups and 12 people were arrested. The police operation is said to have cost the UK tax-payer £150,000.
