On 19 Feb 1941 the Nazis arrived over Swansea - the Luftwaffe dropped over 1,200 high explosive bombs and 56,000 incendiary devices, destroying over 800 homes, schools, businesses and churches, damaging 11,000 buildings, injuring 400 locals and killing 230 innocent Welsh people.

On the 9 March 2013 the Nazis came back. The National Front organised a "White Pride" (sic) rally in Swansea, followed that evening by a concert of the Nazi music organisation Blood & Honour, which takes its name from the motto of the Hitler Youth.

Despite drawing Nazis from all over the UK, predictably the NF rally in Swansea was tiny, but during the Blood & Honour concert hooded Klansmen made Nazi salutes and lynched a giant golliwog to mock victims of racist murders and to symbolise their intention to murder black people.

The NF rally and Blood & Honour concert were both organised by David and Bryan Powell (who also performed in the concert) and Luke Pippen
