    Learning from the Americans I guess. Far right anti-immigrant nationalist? I guess that means you love liberty.
    “How in the hell could a man enjoy being awakened at 6:30 a.m. by an alarm clock, leap out of bed, dress, force-feed, shit, piss, brush teeth and hair, and fight traffic to get to a place where essentially you made lots of money for somebody else and were asked to be grateful for the opportunity to do so?” Charles Bukowski, Factotum
    "In our glorious fight for civil rights, we must guard against being fooled by false slogans, as 'right-to-work.' It provides no 'rights' and no 'works.' Its purpose is to destroy labor unions and the freedom of collective bargaining... We demand this fraud be stopped." MLK

    It's funny they mask their bigotry by creating a slogan called Hope not Hate. You can can put lipstick on a pig but it's still a pig.

    No, Hope Not Hate is a mainstream anti-fascist campaign group.

    It's been on the cards for a while, there's only 60 odd members of this shitty party so hopefully they'll just fade into insignificance like the National Front

    Just like all SA clones in post-war europe have failed due to infighting and anti-facism this attempt will be no different.
