‘Crypto-fascist’ is an overworked word but one that is entirely appropriate in the case of the three BNP activists in Swansea and Gower who decided to describe themselves as Support our Troops Bring Them Home candidates.
We’ve now been sent confirmation that all three have the BNP emblem alongside their names on the ballot papers. So perhaps the BBC, who highlighted the party’s attempted duplicity, will now stop describing them as independent candidates on their election website - just in case anyone gets taken in.

Talking of accuracy - have you seen the front page of the Beans on Toast? Yesterday they published the name and photo of some guy accused of child molesting. Turns out they got it wrong on both counts. Grovelling apologies in today's edition but the paper can expect to screwed big time if the guy wrongly identified has a good enough lawyer.
Said it before, I would not trust the Evening Post to get the date right.
