jun 27, 2009 - The UPL organised a second demonstration for 24 May, titled "Ban the Terrorists"

Description:

This first foray by Ray and his allies was short-lived as the police quickly shut it down, but this was the beginning of what would become the EDL.
Angry that the police had denied them permission to protest in April, this new alliance organised another march for 24 May 2009. The core message of the protest, under the slogan ‘Ban the terrorists’, was a call for the police to act against the organisers of the Islam4UK protest, asking them to issue Anti-Social Behaviour Orders (ASBO) banning them from Luton town centre. It is worth noting that, even at this early stage in the group’s evolution, there was at least an acknowledgement that the majority of Muslims are not extremists, and an apparent disavowal of racist politics...
Despite the language used on the UPL website, it soon became clear that the group was a magnet for elements of the far-right it claimed
to disavow
