Stephen Lennon is arrested by police at aRemembrance Day protest on Exhibition Road in London
Stephen Lennon, 27, of Layham Drive, Luton, was held by police in Kensington, west London, as the nation stopped to mark the anniversary of Armistice Day. Five others associated with his group were also arrested as members of Muslims Against Crusades (MAC) burned remembrance poppies.
Two Islamic protesters, aged 30 and 25, were arrested for public order offences after the poppies were set alight and protesters chanted "British soldiers burn in hell" during the two-minute silence.
One officer was taken to hospital with a head injury during clashes as about 50 men linked to EDL were kept separate as they shouted abuse.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman said Lennon had been released on bail and would appear at West London magistrates' court on November 22. He said four other men, aged 41, 42, 19 and 18, all arrested on suspicion of affray, were released on bail until mid-December. It is not yet known what happened to a fifth man who was held on suspicion of possession of class A drugs.
The spokesman added that the two members of Muslims Against Crusades had been bailed until mid-December pending further inquiries. Meanwhile, parents of British soldiers killed in Afghanistan condemned the inflammatory protest by the hard-line group.

Is getting coked up before the kick off an English tradition worth defending?

It is if your name is Clive Jefferson.... Business is business!
Stephen does seem to have become very fond of the camera lately. His mum must be right proud
I'd like to read that members of MAC (muslims Against Crusades) had also been called to account for the banners they were waving about were an insult to British soldiers.
As HOPE not hate says in 'A Plague on Both their Houses', all of the extremists advocating or inciting violence need to be held to account.
The extreme Islamists are as fascist as any in the EDL or BNP.
I would have though there'd be a strong case to charge him with "conspiracy to commit violent disorder" for most of the times that the EDL have held their "protests", (certainly in Leicester), but I suppose he gets away with it because he's a grass!
You make strike a pose Master Stephen but you will never be en vogue.
Waxy looks like he's about to start crying.
What on earth will the Extremely Densers do without their mascot?
What a bum!
Makes Cyclkops seem sane!
Shamefully the neo-Nazi cheerleading Daily Star (owned by EDL supporter Mister Richard Desmond), announced gloriously that the identities of the MAC people would soon be posted online on far right websites.
Isn't Richard Desmond Jewish by birth?
Perhaps he should spare a thought for the Jewish people victimised for their faith on Redwatch, before allowing his publications to form friendships with far right groups.
What an ignorant lowlife grassing bastard...
Also like Cyclops, he is creaming in cash from gullible sheepish EDL supporters using his merchanising activities on Ebay.
I bet he doesn't pay his taxes, Mister Taxman.
Please invstigate and send him a hefty tax bill for his undeclared income.
I know he's a police informant, but surely kicking a copper anuls some of his immunity.
Also, how come he is never given a abnning order so he can't travel to preston?
The editors at Northern and Shell newspapers should take a long and hard look at their uncritical links with the EDL.
Back in the day, the Daily Mail supported Mosley.
"Is getting coked up before the kick off an English tradition worth defending?"
Everyone says they get high in Wetherspoons toilets during their racist piss-ups.
Wander if Yaxley Lennon is a coke user or a dealer?
Organised fascism and drug dealing go hand-in-hand.
What's wrong with ASBOs?
"Perhaps he should spare a thought for the Jewish people victimised for their faith on Redwatch, before allowing his publications to form friendships with far right groups".
Can a pornographer have ethics?
Would anyone bet against no charges being brought after Yaxley-Lennon named a few names - again?
Lets hope the footy hooligan gangs spot the link between getting their collars felt and a certain someones visits to the police stations. The govermemnt already have all of their faces on file cos you have to take your balaclava off to drink cheap lager in the bar.
