If I’d dressed as Hitler at some point in my life, there would be no chance I’d ever run for public office, how stupid is this bloke?

Is this not a bit over sensitive? If he’s in fancy dress and doing it for a joke what is really wrong with it? I knew a guy who went to a fancy dress party in fake tan, slicked back hair and a suit with one sleeve rolled up and his arm covered in fake blood.
He was Michael Barrymore.

Is the photo on the left him cosplaying as Henry the Eighth?

This must be a generational thing because back in the 80s and 90s Nazis had become comic figures, you had series like Allo Allo on the tv. People dressed as Nazis for fancy dress parties regularly, it was one of the standard fancy dress store costumes.
It didn’t mean you admired them any more than you admired Napoleon or Freddie Krueger.

An anti semitic bully in the Labour Party…..what a shock

This doesn’t bother me at all to be honest. You could argue whether you find it funny or tasteful, but it’s not as if he’s an actual Nazi

Glorifying Nazi ideology in the reform party = good
The British press are scum

from the [report](https://www.equalityhumanrights.com/sites/default/files/investigation-into-antisemitism-in-the-labour-party.pdf):
>”Our investigation has identified serious failings in leadership and an inadequate
>process for handling antisemitism complaints across the Labour Party, and we
>have identified multiple failures in the systems it uses to resolve them. We have
>concluded that there were unlawful acts of harassment and discrimination for
>which the Labour Party is responsible.”
good to see that they learned from this and took actions to avoid further tensions with the community…
It was 16 years ago and for a bit of shits & giggles at a charity party……
Unless he actually did or said something, people just need to get a grip. We have much bigger problems that need attention and outrage.
Ah yes, the left supporters defending this.
Whereas, is this was a Tory or Reform mayor, you’d be calling him a racist, racist and out for his blood and resignation.
No one should really do it.
He did a dumb thing, but it was back when stuff like Allo allo was on telly. Bad taste, yes. Offensive, yes. Funny at the time? Probably.
No one cares.
I’m sure he was just dressing up as [Prince Harry](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00587/news-graphics-2005-_587303a.jpg) dressing up as Nazi…!
Dressing up as hitler for fancy dress = bad
