Warning: BNP have been posting with abandon today

The BNP woke up early again this morning. In the short term, these posts need to be hidden. In the long term, we need a strategy?

For the second morning I came to UK.indymedia.org to find that the British fascists had got there first. As one scrolls down, one will find a string of anti-immigrant, anti-African, anti-black, crime hysteria-mongering, posts under the names Anthony Milne and John Tyndall. These need to be removed from the visible newswire as usual.

But in the longer term, what should we do? It seems that they aim their postings for the early morning in order to command the newswire for the hours of the day until the administrator comes on. I hate to add more to the tech crew's responsibilities, but maybe they should have someone who does an early morning sweep? Or perhaps someone in an IMC tech crew a few time zones to the east or west might be given the early morning watch?
