Nick Griffin, Mark Thatcher
Apparently it is not a crime to call Nick Griffin a "fucking wanker". I look forward to my opportunity to do this. Three cheers for an English jury!

And [info]shewhomust has just pointed out that Simon Mann, just released from prison in Equatorial Guinea, had said that Mark Thatcher was the brains behind the plot for a coup-d'etat. The BBC six-o'clock news reported (21 minutes in): "This morning Mann called explicitly for other alleged plotters, including Sir Mark Thatcher, to face justice, saying they were the real brains behind the coup. Sir Mark Thatcher denies this." For once I might almost believe him. Sir Mark, the brains behind???

Given that the coup was an unmitigated failure from first to last, it has a distinctly Thatcherite ring to it.

My favourite comment re Griffin was a letter in the Metro.

"Pot, kettle, White?"
