Mark you may remember was the loser who allowed himself to be filmed saying all kinds of pro-Hitler shite by a BBC reporter. Both of them are up in court for incitement to racial hatred. There would have been a third defendant had former BNP leader John Tyndall not croaked in the month of July. This was a terrible shame as Tyndall was one of the more entertaining (not to mention incompetent) self-proclaimed neo-Nazi leaders.

Unite against Fascism and Yorkshire and Humber TUC called a counter demo outside the court.

The Peace Camp.
They families have been denied legal aid to take the government to court over the decision to invade Iraq. They want a public enquiry into the decision to go to war. Denying them legal aid effectively gags them. They face losing their homes if they go forward with the case without any financial help.
