Thread Name: BS: Who will campaign against the BNP?
Subject: RE: BS: Who will campaign against the BNP?
The holocaust survivor who has received threats from racist thugs and who has had his house attacked for speaking out against the rise of the far right and the BNP in this country is Leon Greenman.He is now 96 years of age and not 90 as I previously wrote.

Leon ,a British citizen was arrested along with his wife and infant son in Holland in 1942.His wife and infant son were murdered by the nazis in Auschwitz -Birkenau but Leon survived the death camps by a miracle.

He has spent many years talking about his terrible experiences and warning about the rise of the racists and nazis.

In 1994 he led the huge anti BNP march at Welling and has received death threats and his house has been attacked. Only a few years ago money had to be raised by anti racists to install security systems to protect his house after it was attacked by some of these aryan supermen of the right.

Leon is an inspiration to everyone opposed to the racists and nazis.
