Alan Ayling

Alan Lake (real name: Alan Ayling) is a multimillionaire former director of Pacific Capital Investment Management, and the alleged financier of the English Defense League. This has been denied by both Ayling and EDL founder Tommy Robinson, although Ayling has admitted to giving Robinson money "to make things happen". Regardless of whether or not Ayling is really the financier, he is considered a central figure in Islamophobia in Europe, having spoken at seminars on Islamification and been seen at EDL rallies and demonstrations. He also founded an Alt-Right website named "4 Freedoms", and has been investigated after being accused of mentoring Anders Behring Breivik. The British intelligence agency MI5 also holds a file on him due to an incident where he called for the assassination of the Archbishop of Canterbury, former Conservative party leader David Cameron and former Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg for failing to support the EDL. After Ayling was exposed as being the true identity of Alan Lake, he was suspended from his job and currently lives in obscurity, despite his key role in modern Islamophobia.
