PEGIDA
PEGIDA is a large German pressure group of ordinary indigenous people opposing the Islamification, or Islamisation, of European nations, including the United Kingdom: meaning the growing number of Islamic immigrants, and their children who are often born in Europe.
Tens of thousands of people have taken part in their marches and protests, including 18,000 in Dresden[1] (a recent meeting was addressed by the Dutch politician Geert Wilders[2]) and a march and meeting of over 2000 people took place in Newcastle-upon-Tyne in England on 28 February 2015.[3]
