The battle of Culquaber

A toast to the Führer's health! Ein Toast auf den Führer der Gesundheit! Zum Wohl!

National-Socialist - Party!

Image produced by UK far Rightists in memory of Oswald Mosley shortly after his death (December 1980).  I am not sure of the exact source - but would be willing to guess that the people who produced this image did not share - or even understand - some of Mosley's main political positions.  I am (easily) old enough to remember UK media coverage of Mosley's death.  Much of it - even from liberal and socialist-inclined newspapers - was surprisingly complimentary, concentrating on his brilliant early parliamentary career and downplaying the facism, street-fighting, rabble-rousing, anti-Semitism and treason that characterised his activities in the period leading up to WW2.  This was hilariously lampooned at the time by the BBC's "Not the Nine-o-Clock News" tv show, whose cast (dressed as National Front skinhead youths) sang, "Some people called him traitor/Some people called him mad/But any friend of Hitler's/Can't have been all bad ..."
