Jayfor Justice to Rev. O'Lution

I have to say that I entirely agree. Most of those policies are laughable. They are idealistic (spawned from the most bizarrely warped of minds, but idealistic none the less) and impossible to legislate. But before we go back to mocking their wide-eyed stupidity and condemning them to Appendix 99 of The Oxford Book of Stupids, I think that we still need to address the issues. Hitler's momentum rolled of the back of people looking to the far left/right in times of deep recession. So did Mussolini's and Stalin's and Pol Pot's and Mugabe's. And we are now in a recession. It is, like you said, the evolution of these ideas that we need to take heed of. If the centre-right of Europe needs a few big policies to raise eyebrows, start discussions and give the illusion of progression, where is it going to look for inspiration? The liberal left is almost over the horizon due to the misrepresentation of its ideals by Blair, Brown and other war criminals in red ties and second homes. It has been tarred and feathered to the extent that the stinking black goo and the borderline-comic feathers are its defining features. So they will look to the BNP and that goddamn Kaczy´nski for boat-rocking, vote buying inspiration. A hill needn't be steep to get a ball rolling. From it distance, it can look totally flat.
