Viscount Henry Gage took a leading part in the burning of an effigy of a Gypsy family, including small children, burned before a large crowd shouting "Burn them, burn them" at a bonfire 'celebration' in East Sussex, England, recently.

This blatant act of incitement to racial hatred has been condemned by the Commission for Racial Equality. But pressure is needed to ensure that the police and Crown Prosecution Service follow through with the arrest and charging of Viscount Gage and other members of the Firle Bonfire Society.
