News has reached us that both Ebay and Paypal have closed down accounts owned by The English Defence League.
Announcing the news on their Facebook page, admins tried to reassure angry members who had paid money for items so far not received.
It isn't clear yet as to the reasons behind the closure, however there is a strong possibility that after months of flaunting Ebay's strict rules and regulations, the EDL broke one rule too many.
Paypal along with closing down the EDL account have frozen all the EDL's money held in their account. This will no doubt leave a serious dent in the EDL's all important merchandising operation.
It's causing quite a bit of controversy from even as high as the Wikileaks Grand Poobah, Julian Assange, not to mention gazillions of comments in the twitterverse.
