Too extreme and right wing, apparently.

Dear world: this is how you do irony. Take note.

As a reformed former nazi he will now be much more eligible for paid TV work. Or perhaps an edgy column in a bad newspaper, strategically placed opposite the column of some randomly selected headscarf wearing lady.

I heard some of an interview he gave to Radio 5 live this evening. It was actually quite compelling. He's either actually had some level of revelation about what he was doing and how he was going about it, or he's completely fruit loops - and I mean bark at the moon crazy but rational with it, which is is a really nasty combination. I honestly have no idea which it is.

I do know this isn't completely unprecedented. Famously - and least in some senses - the lead singer of the band 'Senser' was once in the BNP despite being Arabic (seriously). He realised what an idiot he had been and he's now a fervent anti-racism campaigner. If it can happen once...
