Simon Burgess, Labour Parliamentary candidate for Brighton Kemptown, is urging people to sign up to a facebook group for those "
seriously perturbed" by the Tories linking up with extreme right wing parties in Europe.
Simon said:
"The Tories keep saying nobody cares about their links with european parties that are homophobic and anti-semitic, it is about time they heard that they are wrong, this is an easy way to show that.
"On March 18, the Guardian newspaper ran an article by Denis McShane MP, former Europe Minister, on the far right groups that the British Tory Party has aligned itself to after they turned their back on mainstream right of centre European parties.
"Tory supporters and apologists have gone into overdrive to try and rubbish the article. One of the first comments was: 'Oh give it a rest Denis - if you can find me 500 voters in the whole country who are seriously perturbed by this I will take this article seriously.' This is our chance to tell all political parties that to align themselves with bigots is unacceptable" .
