THE Anne Frank and Holocaust exhibitions in Accrington and other parts of Britain, under the guise of helping people to understand the fear which racism causes and to encourage mutual respect, are, in fact, being racist themselves by brainwashing adults and, worst of all, children, into hating the German people for wartime actions of 51 years ago, which present-day Germans had nothing to do with.

In my opinion, these exhibitions should be banned for the hypocritical racist views they present.

Today's British youngsters can see for themselves all the horrors of present-day wars and conflicts. They don't need this politically-correct brainwashing and their parents should demand that it is stopped.
