You've all heard the saying "you couldn't make it up" well listen to this one. One of these protesters, one Jalal Ahmed, has security clearance and works for Easy Jet as baggage handler at Luton Airport comments please

I hope they bring each protester down one by one.

BBC NEWS | England | Beds/Bucks/Herts | Two held during parade protests
I was going to pm you and say that however angry this makes you, remember that the work you do on behalf of the troops serving at the sharp end of things means much more, and more truly represents how the vast majority of feel, than the rantings of a few extremists. But I decided to put it on the open forum instead .... I think it adds a little perspective to this whole deal.

I agree Eric . If anything positive has come out of those scumbags protesting, It is the Public support strengthening more than ever, and that can only be a good thing for our troops.
IMO all they have done is embarrass themselves and their own culture and joined a few more dots together to enable a clearer picture of what we the british public have to endure in our own country, Now all we need is a decent enough government to sit up and take note.

Re: Protests at returning troops Parade

There was a news report on TV last night from Pakistan. It was about a long Walk from Karachi to Islamabad. It seems that during the political unrest of the last couple of years, the then President(Pervez Musharraf) sacked all the senior judges.....and they want to be reinstated.

There was a large demonstration and in the crowd were 'plain clothes police'......demonstrators were hit with batons and bundled into vans and taken to Prison.......women too were treated in this manner.
So thje demonstrators in Luton want to realise that they have freedoms here that aren't shared with the people in their own countries......and women demonstrators and polictical activists are not tolerated at all.

The thing that amuses me about these nut jobs, is they are calling our troops yet more Muslims are being killed by Muslims ever day, and I also ask the question how many Muslims did Sadman slaughter during his tyrannical reign, exactly

Suppose it was all a question of law Margaret. If they weren't throwing objects, hitting out at anyone ... just maybe causing an obstruction or some sort of incitement, then all the police could do was to move them along. Bet they themselves would have loved to have punched the hell out of them !

Can't obviously blame other members of the crowd from having a go at them, can you ? Suppose though in the eyes of the law they were committing an offence.

I have to disagree kate, if the BNP were stood outside a mosque waving obnoxious posters, their feet would not have touched, you know it I know it, but because they were Muslim fanatics shouting vile insults at our lads marching through their town, the police were scarred to death of being pulled over the calls, there is one law for us and another law for them and lets face it its not the first time this has happened nor will it be the last, sadly
