The Mirror

By Tom Parry

This is BNP candidate Dave Brown’s souvenir snap of his holiday with 500 skinheads in swastika T-shirts.

Brown is today standing in a by-election for a seat on a district council. But earlier this month, the plumber, his wife Nina and party organiser Mike Bell went to the Fest Der Volker in the town of Possneck, Germany.

His wife and Bell went on to the stage - bedecked with a banner featuring two stormtroopers - to address the audience.

Brown is seeking election to Broxtowe District Council in Nottinghamshire.

Anti-racist group Searchlight said : "This is clear evidence that the BNP is still very much involved with the most extreme right-wing groups in Europe.

"To go to this in Germany, where there is still great sensitivity about the Holocaust, shows particular insensitivity."
