Don't mention the war

Not to Michael Howard anyway. Kevin McNamara is coming under attack for suggesting that Michael Howard's despicable incitements against travellers have the "whiff of the gas chambers about them". The headline for this, in the Daily Mail, is "Nazi slurs and New Labour". So let's round this up shall we? New Labour have lampooned Michael Howard as a flying pig (as in if X could happen then pigs might fly) and as a man with a pocket watch (no-one knows if he was supposed to resemble Fagin having stolen a watch or Svengali hypnotising someone or just Joe Bloke with a pocket watch). These caracatures were attacked as being anti-semitic because Tory leader, Michael Howard is Jewish. Now Michael Howard is inciting people to the hatred of travellers and anyone who points out the similarity with Nazi policy towards "nomads" is again accused of anti-semitism. Whoever said it's not easy being a Jew? It's a doddle. We can say or do anything and woe betide anyone who dares to criticise. No wonder the BNP was so keen to have a Jewish candidate. Now they're no more fascist than that cuddly Ariel Sharon chappie.
