A cache of emails and private messages obtained by hacking group Anonymous reveal Nick Griffin may have had a meeting with Republican candidate Ron Paul at a conference in Washington DC. These messages from a white supremacist group are the latest blow to Paul, who has spent much of this week continuing to disavow racist newsletters printed in his [...]

With the British National Party hanging over a financial abyss, our opportunities to laugh at Nick Griffin may soon be rationed.
