It was all a HOAX, a lie made up by Hope Not Hate. The motherload of misinformation. An act of Terrorism designed to promote fear and panic, was a Hoax that 'served its purpose well' says charity founder.
The founder of Hope not Hate has admitted that the list of 100 planned attacks by the 'far right' was a HOAX. Lowles boasted that he thought that it had served its purpose well by mobilising the 'anti-racists' who turned out on the streets in their hundreds on Wednesday.
Nick Lowles hoax was picked up by the media and broadcast around the world. Without checking the validity of the story, the British media repeated it as if it were fact. The BBC even flashed up a map of the 'planned locations' and said that they had seen them being talked about of 'far right' forums, all that was lies too.
On Wednesday, a police source warned the Mirror of “at least 100 planned events”. 100 “events” soon became 100 “rallies” or “protests”: “Britain braced for more than 100 far-Right rallies on Wednesday”, reported the Telegraph. “At least 100 far-right protests have been announced for this evening,” Sky News sloppily reported.
By the next day, what happened and didn’t happen on Wednesday was being chalked up as brilliant policing. The Guardian reported: “The more than 100 far-right gatherings that were expected to take place on Wednesday failed to materialise following the mobilisation of 6,000 riot officers and the deterrent effect of the swift arrests and court appearances of those purported to participate in the violence over the weekend.”
As a result of the lies town centres were shut and riot police were deployed. Millions of pounds in trade was lost, thousands of police were taken off other duties to protect vulnerable communities, and groups of angry young Muslims took to the streets with weapons to attack anyone they thought looked 'far right'. Many more spent the night in fear that the mythical 'far right' was going to come to their homes and get them.
On Wednesday the anti-racism protestors then claimed a victory. According to them, they had frightened off the far right with their placards and chants hailing themselves victors of an imaginary war.
This is not the first Hoax that Hope Not Hate has done in recent weeks, they were also behind the fake story of an acid attack by the 'far right' on an innocent Muslim woman. Again, this was a complete lie. it didn't happen. A deliberate attempt to stir up trouble which, like the later hoax, had the desired effect.
Yet despite all of this, Nick Lowles remains a free man. He has admitted spreading false information about the riots that directly lead to more violence, caused fear and unrest in large sections of the community and cost the economy millions of pounds and yet Lowles is not being investigated by the police in any way.
Compare that to the 55 year old Cheshire woman who got the name and religion wrong of the Southport attacker who was arrested and charged for her mistake, or the 23 year old facebook user who has been jailed for being against mass immigration and you see that something very sinister is happening here. This isn't just two-tier policing, it's far more than that, this is state-sponsored tyranny.
