Saffiyah Khan - symbol of boldness

[mahool]

Saffiyah Khan… who is half Pakistani and half Bosnian… facing down leader of EDL the far right-wing

A calm and peaceful smile …

Ms Khan told The Mirror about her experience at the rally.

She said: "(The EDL supporter) was poking his finger in my face, but I just stood there. I didn’t do anything, I wasn’t interested, that wasn’t my intention.
"I couldn’t understand what was being said though to be honest, it was all very mumbled. "But I wasn’t scared in the slightest. I stay pretty calm in these situations.

"I knew they were trying to provoke me, but I wasn’t going to be provoked.
