It's all biological, especially being a bigoted cunt: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-12198370

I love the way she pledges to remove the focus on anti-Islam, as if that makes her party more respectable.

So I'm pointing this gun at your head, but don't worry: I've removed two of the bullets, so it only has four in it now. Stop sweating.

The terrifying thing is that people are sucked in by the whole natioanilst thing. I have two colleagues, decent,intelligent men, who sagely nod and say "Well, you know, the BNP have got this right and that right, I think I'll vote for them next time, I mean we have to think of ourselves first." Once upon a time parties like this were neo-fascist gangs beating up anyone who didn't conform to their idea of a purebred native. All they've done is swap their swastika tattoos for business suits.

One of the above colleagues actually stated, as he gave anther colleague a potted "history" of nazi Germany, that the patriotic Adolf came home from WW1 and was horrified to see that Germany was being driven to ruin by its "Jewish" government. Hitler's madness, he said, came later as a result of power. I had to keep my mouth shut at that particular moment, but believe me it was bloody hard. I did manage to state tht Adolf T Hitler was nothing but a worthless piece of shit from birth to death (not an honour I bestow upon many people, as you know I teach and some of my students are known to the police, can barely speak let alone spell their own names, but all of them have some worth and are given the best I can give them)and that every single WW2 fatality can be laid at his door, and then give a more accurate history to my other colleague later. It just alarms me that ordinary folk have such a dangerously distorted take on history.

Cheers
Terry

Terry - but it's comforting to know that you think and care about your students, whereas many other so called teachers might not, especially given the start in life that some of these students have had.

As a point of shocking interest, three months ago a fascist demonstration was taking place here in Warsaw, believe or not. Thankfully, the ant-fascist response was overwhelming, just as their counterparts in Britain always prove. BUT, one political commentator said that fascists marching anywhere is a terrible thing, especially in a world apparently enlightened, but that they could march through the streets of Warsaw wearing the Nazi Swastika on their arms, after what had happened here in the 2nd World War, beggared belief. Of all countries, you'd expect, or would hope, that such things wouldn't prevent themselves the way they have, but it only highlights how the dangers of ignorance and stupidity are universal.
