CORRECTION: I misspelled Seán Thomas Kane's name in the credits. Apologies Seán. A couple of clarifications: -The existence of the Uganda Resettlement Board shouldn't imply that the main parties of the 70s were not doing other things that were very harmful for immigrants. They were not pro-immigrant. It's just that they weren't anti-immigrant enough for NF members. -Bowie's flirtation with fascism seems to have been relatively short-lived, although no one was to know that at the time. -Not all skinheads are fascist; there were anti-fascist skinheads too. When you're reading sources from the time, it's important to check which ones you're reading about.
