That was a littledifferent. Our credit crunch is pocket money to 20s-30s Germany. And the gov that Mr H displaced was little more than a puppet imposed by the LoN.

You can't compare a manwho was in a position to limit social access to information with people coming into power today in the age of 24 hour free communication.
Obviously there are exceptions, like North Korea and China, but they have been in the situation from a pre internet age.

Andas I pointed out, it was the government-of-the-day's demonising of him that got him so much popularity. If the German government of the 20s and 30s had ignored him, and everyone just drew an amusing cartoon of him and then got on with their lives, he wouldn't have been able to adopt a position of being viewed my many as the legitimate opposition in the eyes of everyone with an anti-government bent. The BNP need to be ridiculed, not fought seriously. The problem is that there has been a lot of guff in the more liberal media about the BNP and what we should do about it. That turns them into a boogey-man, which attracts the loons.
