Style Advice for the Militant Among Us

British National Party leader Nick Griffin recently appeared on the BBC show Question Time, where he dropped such pearls of wisdom as "a lot of people in this country find the sight of two grown men kissing in public really creepy" and "militant homosexuals don't have the right to teach [homosexuality]."

Today, the Guardian's Hadley Freeman responded to an important question Griffin's appearance raised in the minds of many: What, exactly, should a militant homosexual wear?

"I'm seeing dark blue jackets with gold frogging, I'm seeing sexy little captain caps, I'm seeing chaps, I'm seeing shiny boots, I'm seeing moustaches," she says. "I'm even seeing some darling little medals on jacket lapels (such fantastic potential for accessorising with this look). Basically, take a photo of Oswald Mosley, cross it with the policeman in the Village People, and we have the style Nick is advising."
