      > Peter Lawrence, who sits on Mylor Parish Council and represents the far-right British Democrats, made the comments at a protest in Truro on 24 May. In video footage captured and published online by the activist group Cornwall Resists, he is head stating that Hitler “didn’t have beef with the Jews” and that “world Jewry declared war on Germany”.

      Nothing more ‘British’ or ‘Democratic’ than being a Hitler loving freak…

      It’s a bold position to take for even the most hard line Holocaust denier.

      Said this before, I’ve never understood why the far-right, admiring Hitler and the Nazis, and hating Jews, want to suggest the Holocaust *didn’t* happen, or was exaggerated.

      Surely if you don’t like Jews and love the Nazis, you wouldn’t want to put a downer on their efforts? Why make out like they were incompetent and had to lie? Surely you’d be saying the opposite “no no no, they didn’t kill six million, they were really good at Holocausting and it was actually *nine* million!”

      Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. We have the extraordinary evidence that shows it did happen, so let’s see his evidence for it not happening.

      Technically correct: it would be inaccurate to call Hitler’s issue(s) with Jews “a beef”…

      “Peter Lawrence, who sits on Mylor Parish Council and represents the far-right British Democrats”

      Enough said. Explains everything.

      Nutjob.

      I never know if these people are selectively stupid to get attention, or genuinely stupid and don’t understand what they are saying.

      He literally wrote about them trying to take over the world in his book. Literally, in literature.

      This will work on people who don’t know their history. Which is a fair few.

      There’s a book and some recorded speeches by this Hitler chap. Didn’t he mention the Jews a couple of times?

      “You’re not supposed to say that Peter. You know you’re not supposed to say that.”

      Peter Lawrence, [far-right] British Democrats of Mylor Parish Council, Cornwall.

      And yeah, it’s unfortunately as bad as the headline implies.
