Demonstration 'National Bananas Front' in Ede
Rebelact - 26.03.2011 19:58

Saturday, March 26th was a beautifooool day to launch the 'National Bananas Front' in Ede. Of course there was also a march of neo-nazi's. Shortly after 13.00 the leader of the Nederlandse Volks Unie (Dutch Peoples-Union) started his speech. But it didn't take long before the 'National Bananas Front' also started their far better campaign: "Own Bananas First!"

The real Big Issue should be to stop the foreign bananas entering the Netherlands! "This country needs order - this country needs Dutch bananas!"

To make that message clear some enthusiastic members of the National Bananas Front held their own speeches and shouted lines about Dutch bananas. The media attention for that guy from NVU was gone. First things first - the media now followed the start of the campaign for Dutch bananas: "Dutch bananas should be protected! No more bananas from abroad!
The Dutch borders should be closed immediately for all foreign bananas!"

The National Bananas Front demonstrated in a very clear way how tasteful Dutch bananas are by offering them to people from media and police and throwing them in the direction of the NVU. More than 70 Dutch bananas found their (extreme) right way!

It was surprising! Even for the police horses; they never saw so many bananas flying above their heads... The police on these horses tried to stop the campaign, but first without success. It took a while because the members of the National Bananas Front were surrounded by journalists, photographers and filmers. Clownfusion all over the place; for the police and also for the neo-nazi's. The media were clearly more interested in the exciting bananas campaign than in that boring speech from NVU-leader Custers.

Finally the improvised 'pressconference' had to stop and around 13.30 the police accompanied the members of the National Bananas Front beyond the Klinkenbergerweg in the direction of the woods east of the train station. Although the police made clear they also support our delicious Dutch bananas, they ordered the National Bananas Front to don't re-enter the neighbourhood where the nazi's were marching.

The National Bananas Front followed the orders. What else should we do?!

Demonstratie 'Nationaal Bananen Front' in Ede 
Rebelact - 26.03.2011 20:55

Zaterdag, 26 maart was een schitterende dag om het 'Nationaal Bananen Front' te lanceren in Ede. Natuurlijk was daar ook een mars van neo-nazi's. Iets voorbij 13.00 uur begon de leider van de Nederlandse Volks-Unie met zijn toespraak. Maar het duurde niet lang voordat ook het 'Nationaal Bananen Front' begon met hun veel betere campagne: "Eigen Bananen Eerst!"

Waar het nu echt om draait, is het stoppen van het binnenkomen van buitenlandse bananen in Nederland! "Dit land heeft orde nodig - dit land heeft Nederlandse bananen nodig!"

Om die boodschap helder te maken, hielden enkele enthousiaste leden van het Nationaal Bananen Front hun eigen toespraken en riepen leuzen over Nederlandse bananen. De aandacht van de media voor die vent van de NVU was voorbij. Eerst de echt belangrijke zaken - de media volgden nu de start van de campagne voor Nederlandse bananen: "Nederlandse bananen moeten worden beschermd! Geen bannanen meer uit het buitenland!
De Nederlandse grenzen moeten onmiddelijk gesloten worden voor buitenlandse bananen!"

Het Nationaal Bananen Front demonstreerde op een heel heldere manier hoe smakelijk Nederlandse bananen zijn door ze aan de mensen van de media en politie aan te bieden en ze in de richting van de NVU te gooien. Meer dan 70 Nederlandse bananen vonden op deze manier hun (extreem) recht(s)e weg!

Het was verrassend! Zelfs voor de politiepaarden; ze hadden nog nooit zoveel bananen boven hun hoofden zien vliegen... De politie en deze paarden probeerden de campagne te stoppen, maar eerst zonder succes. Het duurde even omdat de leden van het Nationale Bananen Front werden omgeven door journalisten, fotografen en filmers. Overal clowneske verwarring; voor de politie en ook voor de neo-nazi's. De media waren duidelijk meer geinteresseerd in de opwindende bananen campagne dan in de saaie toespraak van NVU-leider Kusters.

Uiteindelijk moest de geimproviseerde 'persconferentie' stoppen en begeleidden rond 13.30 de politie de leden van het Nationaal Bananen Front voorbij de Klinkenbergerweg in de richting van de bossen oostelijk van het treinstation Ede-Wageningen. Hoewel de politie duidelijk maakte dat ze ook onze heerlijke Nederlandse bananen ondersteunen, verordonneerden ze het Nationaal Bananen Front om de omgeving waar de neo-nazi's marcheerden niet opnieuw binnen te gaan.

Het Nationaal Bannanen Front volgden de orders. Wat zouden we anders moeten doen?!
