Just saw this on the Islam4UK site. Wonder if it is true or some sort of trick? Did we scare them away? Hmmmmmmm....

Press Release, 30th October 2009.
For more information please contact Anjem Choudary on 07956 600 569
On 31st October 2009, Islam4UK in conjunction with al-Muhajiroun had planned to organise a unique march in Central London which aimed to highlight the superiority of the Shari?ah over that of British democracy and man-made law.
Alhamdulillah (all praise be to Allah), in the last two weeks there has been overwhelming support from the Muslim community, in relation to the March4Shariah campaign; furthermore, articles displayed on the Islam4UK website illustrating examples of what could happen to iconic landmarks under the Shariah in Britain, proved extremely popular and moreover created a great deal of awareness about the Islamic Shari?ah.
Unfortunately, in the run up to the planned event, it had also become apparent that certain right-wing/anti-Islamic organisations had become intent on preventing the march from going ahead, using threats of physical violence, including bomb and death threats to any member of the Muslim community who happened to attend the march.
In light of this, organisers of the March4Shariah campaign, after careful consultation, have decided to cancel the march in favour of securing the safety of the hundreds of Muslims who may have attended the march to voice their support for the Deen of Haq (Truth).
Consequently, we hereby request all Muslims in the UK, to desist from attending the march, and to furthermore prevent any other member of the Muslim community, who may have planned to attend, from doing so.
A press conference has been issued with the media earlier this afternoon, and inshaa?allah this message will be propagated to the wider public within the next 24 hours; it also includes a live address by Sheikh Omar Bakri Muhammad. The video recording of the conference will soon be made available inshaa?allah.
We would also like to announce that there will be an exciting Islamic Roadshow which will be taking place as a replacement to the March4Shariah, on 31st October 2009. This event will be at an undisclosed location, however if any member of the public would like to attend or enquire about it they are advised to contact Anjem Choudary, UK Head of Al-Muhajiroun and Principal Lecturer at the London School of Shariah on: 07956 600 569.
Finally, we would like to say that indeed we will never stop calling for the implementation of the Shari?ah in the UK, and that we will continue in our struggle to make the Deen of Allah (SWT) dominate all over the world.
It is authentically recorded in Sahih Muslim that the Final Messenger Muhammad (saw) said, "Verily Allah gathered the earth for me, so I saw its east and its west and verily the authority of my Ummah will reach all parts of the earth."
