They dress up as SS for the shock value. As soon as everyone stops paying attention they'll give it up. Also let us not forget that (very ,very) few Britons joined the SS

But nobody will stop paying attention, either in the media or the public at large. And why on earth should they? Dressing up as nazis is very bad and irresponsible behaviour. The Bradford Council ward in which Haworth is located until recently had a BNP councillor and I doubt they are far below the surface even now.

Hamm is Shipley's twin town BTW, not Bradford's as in the article. Bradford's is Monchengladbach. How much else in the article is inaccurate one wonders?

Yeah. Too easily offended by people dressing up as celebrity racists in an area with a large ethnic population and a lot of racial tension. You find racism amusing? Luckily you don't live round here so I'm afraid you'll miss out on 'all the good fun'.
