More than ever, the mainstream Western media seem preoccupied with racists and Nazis. Not a day goes by without two or three dozen reports being posted online. On Sunday 11 December the Daily Mail posted an epic and immensely detailed report uncovering the existence of Nazi sympathisers at the heart of the Conservative Party and close to David Cameron. There is no escaping it: the presence of Nazis in front of an unperturbed Conservative MP, Aidan Burley, documented by Daily Mail reporters in video and digital photography, confirms it conclusively. It seems the Nazi could not contain his Nazism any longer, and had to don the uniform, anxious to be as transgressive as possible. Journalists must be perplexed by how, despite decades of 'education and love', love for multiracialism seems not forthcoming. It must mean that we need yet more of the same.
