the edl photos from this weekend are redolent of realness but they are far too contrived to be really real, their mourning for salman rushdie and their banners misspelled so ludicrously that they suggest some cheap internet parody of themselves

they even have an lgbt sub-faction, no lumpen street thug can submit to this communitarianism in good faith

in terms of realness

The white working classes are so alienated from society that they should attend citizenship ceremonies with immigrants, according to David Cameron’s poverty tsar.

Frank Field said some working class people were increasingly unsure of their identities.
He suggested that going to the ‘wonderful’ citizenship ceremonies could help them feel like they were part of British society again.

Children’s charities and campaign groups have welcomed the appointment of a child poverty tsar following the government’s failure to meet its own poverty targets.

Lisa Harker, who previously worked for Save the Children and the Child Poverty Action Group, has been recruited by the Department of Work and Pensions as an independent adviser on child poverty.

Chris Huhne has asked the Labour Lord Whitty to take up the position of fuel poverty tsar, the Financial Times reports. Malcolm Wicks, former Labour energy minister, and Lord Adonis have both turned down the job.

big thing on Twitter of ostensible lefties and centrists picking on any and all antifascist protesters for being middle-class posers, one is only Real if one at least dabbles in fascism, even just a wee bit.

Didn't know there was an lgbt EDL! They always claim to have members from minority communities but every single one I saw yesterday was white and male. One guy was wearing a Liam Fontaine shirt which I guess you might not get with the BNP.

It looks to me like they are, to a man, displaced football hooligans - nostalgics largely too young to have fought on the terraces or fucked up small French cities but want to feel like they're part of a firm. They are the antithesis of realness.

Wanderers this afternoon confirmed a two-year deal with the pay-day loan company.

QuickQuid - replacing online bookmakers 118BET, whose deal with the Trotters expires this summer - will have its logo on Bolton's matchday and training kit and will also be involved in club-run initiatives across the community.

Feckenham in the 21st century is a rural community with a traditional English village green, and is a starting point for several bridle ways, established country walks, and rambling routes based on Ordnance Survey maps, including the long-distance public footpath, The Monarch's Way, that passes nearby.

It is with great sadness that we received news of the recent death of Robin Smith.

A staunch royalist, Robin delivered a humorous and most informative presentation at the AGM held at Wolverhampton in 2010. His selection was titled 'A Pint at the Kings Head' which featured most of the kings of England through the ages. Robin frequently contributed articles to the Society's journal and was busy on another when he became too ill to write.

Robin lived in a delightful farmhouse at Wookey, near Wells in Somerset. The Inn Sign Society extends its deepest sympathy to Robin's family.

nice

Workers in the UK currently work the longest hours in Europe, take the shortest lunch breaks and enjoy the fewest public holidays. Childcare is expensive and difficult to find, care for older people is of inconsistent quality and financial
support during family-related leave is lower than in some other parts of Europe. The quest for higher productivity and the long hours' culture limit the effects of improved rights and can undermine equal opportunities policies.

The TUC estimates that if all the unpaid overtime worked by the average employee were put together at the start of the year, it would be until mid-February before they started to be paid. This is marked by Work Your Proper Hours Day which takes place on that date around mid-February.

David Cameron was today challenged by rising star Tory MPs to tackle “lazy” Britain — and bring in tough new work reforms.

The “young guns” from the new Right of the party called for a culture of “graft, risk and effort” to propel Britain into the “superleague” of nations.

They branded Britons among “the worst idlers” in the world and said the country should emulate the hard work ethic of Asia.

“Too many people in Britain, we argue, prefer a lie-in to hard work,” they said. The call for action is being made by five Tories from the “class of 2010” — Kwasi Kwarteng, Priti Patel, Dominic Raab, Chris Skidmore and Elizabeth Truss.

Their vision, laid out in a new book, Britannia Unchained — Global Growth and Prosperity, will pile pressure on the Prime Minister to step up reforms to boost Britain’s economy.

Ah yes, if only the british could be more like johnny foreign the country would be great again.

Spain gets a ridiculous number, as do most of the Catholic countries, i think. Russia always seems to have lots too (today, for example).

Idk if a gang war started by a petty criminal's mum throwing a bottle of blue WKD at another petty criminal's head is Real England or whether it goes all the way through Real England and comes out the other side.
