Jobbik promoting events through Catholic Church

As Christmas approaches, we can’t help noting how European fascist groups are dusting down their Christian credentials.

Blurring political, racial and religious ideology can be counted among the numerous tactics that the BNP shares with its European Parliamentary allies, as seen in the use of Reverend Robert West to head up the BNP-linked Christian Council of Great Britain. (Its constitution states that, “the Christian Council of Great Britain and Northern Ireland therefore resolved to recognise the godly importance of race and nation as groups based on this historical and providential process of objective descent”.)

In an indication of how they do it overseas, in Hungary a Calvinist priest in Budapest was recently identified as the source of Jobbik leaflets inviting recipients to a ceremony of the installation of a cross on in the centre of the Hungarian capital, as blogger Karl Pfeiffer reports. The Hungarian neo-fascist party has a track record of using and distorting religion to promote its beliefs, most notably through the frequent appearance of Loránt Hegedüs Jr., the Church minister and notorious anti-Semite. Hegedüs has also shared a stage with Jobbik’s high-profile MEP Krisztina Morvai, at a rally where they made speeches wearing the banned outfit of the paramilitary Hungarian Guard. Hegedüs will again speak at a rally for Jobbik’s militia on December 5th, this time sharing the stage with the another of the party’s MEPs, Csanád Szegedi.

Nick Griffin is a busy man, flying around Europe’s fascist organisations and picking up new ways of promoting the BNP wherever he can like a hyperactive magpie. If the Hungarian example is anything to go by, we can expect more Christianity love-bombing from Wrexham.

    I bet that nothing british had no idea that Nick Griffin is in fact good old St Nicholas himself.

    Another pathetic attempt by nothing british to smear anything to the BNP.

    Maybe NG is in fact ‘Old Nick’ Kenny. Could NG be the Antichrist? No probably not, mein Fuehrer thinks (correctly) that I am. ;)

    it’s ok found it on google: Love bombing is the deliberate show of affection or friendship by an individual or a group of people toward another individual. Critics have asserted that this action may be motivated in part by the desire to recruit, convert or otherwise influence.

    Sounds like any off the political parties they all say they love you when they want your vote.

    I don’t think “Christianity love-bombing from Wrexham” will go very far.
    So nothing to fear there then!
    I am more worried about being “love bombed” by another so called religion.

    There is nothing wrong with the old tradition of maypole dancing. It used to be done in the Lowlands and can be found in Europe and Scandinavia.

    Isn’t the whole maypole thing a pagan phallus worship thing to do with fertility?
    If so we need to criminalise it. We can’t encourage fertility and worry about the population explosion H)
