hitler also said that the Nazi party couldn't have risen to power if the Communists and trade unionists had properly confronted them out on the streets. Instead, the Nazis were out there marching while the lefties were hand-wringing in meetings.


Yeah, well, i wouldn't set much stall by what hitler said. During the early '30s germany was practically at civil war in many of its cities with ongoing armed conflict between the spd, kpd and the nazis. Yes, the spd and kpd were divided and that split the left but they were hardly, "hand wringing in meetings."

Anyway, all these hitler comparisons are spurious; britain (well, england) is not suffering a depression in anyway comparable to that germany experienced from '29 onwards; it has not undergone defeat in a europe-wide conflict; it has not suffered a humiliation comparable to versailles.

griffin isn't hitler and he hasn't got the backing and infrastructure that hitler had; nor is there a freikorps to inherit.

He's a silly man who has repeatedly been propelled into the public mind. The Egg-throwing keeps him on the front page and prevents his shitty little speech from being heard and saves him a savaging for what he said. It's almost too perfect for him.
