EDL accused of using soldier's death to spread hate

The publication of the contact details of alleged EDL members online by a hacking protest group, comes after a video vowing to bring the organisation down was posted online.

Titled 'A Message from Anonymous UK to the English Defence League', it accuses the group of using the death of Drummer Lee Rigby as an "another excuse to further spread your campaign of hate, bigotry, and misinformation".
