the B.U.F. - and its successors ? true, they never actually rode with Forrest, but they will certainly have had links and had their own form of viciousness, and probably still do.

if you are pretending that there is no racism in England, I would suggest that you do not know England - and thirty + years ago it was open and vicious

in the 1940's which other country had a political group - with very high connections - out on the streets after WWII shouting "Hitler was right" ? and if you disagreed with them ? a knuckle duster or razor across the face
