Tory MEPs have admitted the far-right Danish People’s Party and True Finns to the European Conservatives and Reformists group [ECR], established by David Cameron in 2009.
As well as giving the Tories some new unsavoury allies, the move means that two right-wing politicians with criminal convictions will now be joining David Cameron’s eurosceptic alliance in the European Parliament.
As the FT reports (£):
“Morten Messerschmidt, a senior DPP figure and a rising star in Danish politics, was convicted in 2002 for publishing material that appeared to link a multiethnic society to rape, violence and forced marriages.
“Jussi Halla-aho, a newly elected True Finn MEP, was convicted in 2012 of stirring ethnic tensions after writing a blog on freedom of speech that claimed Islam ‘reveres paedophilia’.”
The decision will give the ECR 55 seats, making it the fourth largest group in the Parliament.
But perhaps more worrying is the nature of the Tories’ new allies. In December 2011, an opinion poll of True Finn voters revealed that 51 per cent agreed with the statement: “People of certain races are unsuited for life in a modern society”. (You can read it for yourself here, but you’ll need Google Translate. It’s the final paragraph).
As Left Foot Forward has previously reported, True Finns also have a rather disturbing manifesto:
“True Finns do not accept same-sex marriage ceremony, because marriage is intended to (be) between man and woman… The right to adoption do not give the same sex couples. True Finns have not accepted either of infertility adoption for single women or female couples…”
Last year True Finns were forced to expel a member who photographed a friend giving a Nazi salute inside the Finnish parliament.
As for the Danish People’s Party, it has been agitating for Denmark to adopt some of Europe’s most draconian immigration and integration regulations.
Tory modernisation appears only to extend to the white cliffs of Dover.

Yes, I’m sure they were hiding from Russian-paid forces. No surprise you want to ensure that the Ukraine is held by Russia, your country.
Stop sabotaging language lessons, too.

Name-calling, smearing, ignorance, and labeling: that’s all you’ve got to say. Do you want to know who’s “unfit for modern society”? Take a good, long look in a mirror. I stand against White genocide. You favor White genocide. YOU are the “racial supremacist.” YOU are anti-White. And by the way: READ the link before you spout your garbage; you might actually learn how small-minded you are.
