Anders Breivik and his manifesto: a great deal of nonsense has been written

Sheffield UKIP candidate removed over Breivik blog post
Mr Moxon was sacked from his job as a civil servant in 2004A man who was due to stand in Sheffield’s local elections for UKIP has been stripped of the candidacy over comments made on his blog.
Steve Moxon, a former government whistle-blower, is standing in the Dore and Totley ward.
On his blog he said Norwegian killer Anders Breivik’s thesis on Islam and political correctness was accurate.
Mr Moxon said he “resolutely does not agree with” his crimes. UKIP said his comments were at odds with its policy.
Breivik, 33, killed 77 people in Norway last July. He is currently on trial accused of terrorism and mass murder.
Mr Moxon, a former civil servant, first came to prominence in 2004 when he made claims that key checks were waived by immigration staff in Sheffield to make the numbers coming to Britain seem less dramatic when the EU expanded.
He told BBC Radio Sheffield he had been “amicably” removed as a candidate but remained a member of UKIP.
He said: “I would stress that I do not in any way agree with Anders Breivik’s actions.
“In the unlikely event I get elected I guess I would be an independent at least for a while.”
In a statement, UKIP said: “We note that Steve Moxon has not condoned the actions of the maniac Breivik.
“However, he has made a number of remarks on subjects such as the Breivik manifesto and Islam that are at odds with UKIP policy and perspective.”
Mr Moxon posted the comments on his blog last August. UKIP said it was unaware of the remarks when it selected him as a candidate, as it would have taken an “inordinate amount of time” to read everything written by prospective candidates during the vetting procedure.
The remaining candidates contesting the Dore and Totley seat are Hafeas Rehman for Labour, Liberal Democrat Colin Ross, Conservative Anne Smith and Rita Wilcock from the Green party.
During the evening Moxon published a denunciation of Jonathan Arnott’s official stated position on this issue, which can be read on his blog and it seems he intends to stand against UKIP as an Independent candidate!

On happily being suspended as a UKIP candidate
UKIP has no disagreement with me on anything, so far as I’m aware; and certainly no disagreement on any topic has been put to me.

Sheffield UKIP candidate sacked over Breivik comments
Former Home Office whistleblower Steve Moxon, who triggered a ministerial resignation in 2004, will stay on ballot as an independent
Here’s an interesting twist in the career of Steve Moxon, who made headlines in 2004 as the ‘Home Office whistleblower’ who revealed confidential details over immigration checks being waived.
The row which involved applicants for entry from eastern European countries which were on the threshold of joining the EU at the time, led to the resignation of the junior Home Office minister Beverley Hughes.
Moxon was feted for a time, but many of his initial sympathisers such as Michael Howard and David Davis backed off rapidly after revelations of his extreme view and the publication of his book The Great Immigration Scandal. This went well beyond revelations from the world of Sir Humphrey; its take on immigration more widely was described by Simon Wolley of Operation Black Vote as “a poisonous rant.”
Ukip poster from the 2010 general election . Photograph: Ukip/PAMoxon’s opinions have now cost him his place as UKIP’s candidate in Sheffield‘s local elections, where he is standing for the Dore and Totley ward, a Liberal Democrat stronghold in Nick Clegg’s constituency. The party has dropped him after attention was drawn to a post he wrote on his blog last August which endorsed the reasoning in the testament of the Norwegian mass-murderer Anders Breivik.
He wrote, inter alia:
That pretty well everyone – myself not excluded – recoiled at his actions, does not belie the accuracy of Breivik’s research and analysis in his ‘manifesto’, which is in line with most scholarship in respect of both Political Correctness and Islam.
It is clear that the mass of ordinary people are considered with utter contempt by the government-media-education uber-class across the Western world; this as the result of ‘cultural Marxism’. So we are, in effect, ‘at war’ within our societies over PC, as Breivik claims.
Moxon has repeated this week that he rejects Breivik’s terrible actions, but his inability to understand that approval of the killer’s analysis, whose publicising and promotion from obscurity appears to have been the purpose of the murders, is too much for UKIP. Suspending his candidature, the party says:
We note that Steve Moxon has not condoned the actions of the maniac Breivik. However, he has made a number of remarks on subjects such as the Breivik manifesto and Islam that are at odds with UKIP policy and perspective.
Moxon will stay on the ballot paper as an independent. He told BBC Radio Sheffield that he remained a member of UKIP but:
In the unlikely event I get elected, I guess I would be an independent at least for a while.
The other candidates for Dore and Totley are Hafeas Rehman (Labour), Colin Ross (Liberal Democrat), Anne Smith (Conservative) and Rita Wilcock (Green)
