Local business is on board with the campaign against the Patriotic Youth League, as are some of the churches. We’ve got a good mix of different ethnicities standing up to be counted and no shortage of people from inside and outside the area chomping at the bit to get involved.

It’s not often that I get choked up when opening my email but the last couple of days have been nothing short of amazing. I can’t believe the sheer numbers of people who want to help out or the distances that some of them are prepared to travel. Why, I’ve even received offers of financial assistance. I really don’t think it’s appropriate that I take any of those up just yet. Not until this idea congeals a bit more into a recognisable community group with a bank account and regular meetings.

I’ve been solidly working the local and wider press and have half a dozen interviews scheduled for tomorrow. Expect a big piece in the Northern District Times. What sort of photo angle should we take? Suit, tie and glasses? Maybe singlet, sunnies, whale-bone koru pendant and menacing scowl would send a better message to these thugs. Then again I might look like the thug.

The Newcastle-based PYL and Volksfront national president Stuart McBeth posts on Stormfront as “Eureka Spirit”. Yet another reason why the unions would like to have a lengthy chat with him. Here is the most wacko post of his that I came across:

Hi all,

Did any one watch 7.30 report tonight which showed how there about 7,000 white Europen [sic] sex slaves in Israel now who were brought by the Russian mafia/jewish mob.

I have not been so fired up after watching a program for a long time.

The Russian girls said it was better than living in Russia.

Here is my solution. Russian immigration to South Africa after veterans from the chechen war help the Whites in Africa in forming thier [sic] own nation through victory in a war started in 2010. All other nations could offer volunteers as it would be good practice for possible future events in our own nations.

This is the same guy who denied any involvement with the assault of two black African students and a racist sticker campaign at Newcastle University.

Oh, Stuart McBeth’s avatar on Stormfront is a cartoon image of a Star Wars Snow Trooper. Be careful when viewing that link as you may shake your head so hard you’ll pull a muscle.

It is yet another example of the conflict between the way they market themselves to potential members — that is, “We are not Nazis, we are not racists, we have no links to Skinhead groups.” And the way that they marshall their forces in the deep, dark recesses of the internet, where they think no one is watching.

Well, people are watching. Everything is cached, stored and ready to run. They can no longer publicly deny being the racist scum they are. Scared, small-minded, hate-filled little twerps unable to comprehend the beauty of anything outside of their own cultural experience. Angry, disturbed and frustrated individuals who have fallen victim to that most regressive of human tendencies, the pathetic need to use minority ethnic groups as a scapegoat for all they deem ill with this country.

If the jackboot fits?
