Sometimes you
just can’t believe your own eyes. . . Downing
Street’s short-lived swastika logo[Downing street swastika]

WE are indebted to Heretical.com for posting this record and to those who drew our attention to it. There appears to be a Fifth Column operating within
No.10, or perhaps it is just one of the staff of its Indian call-centre who designed the logo for our beloved leader – the swastika in Hindu mythology is a symbol of rebirth.

Below are some more links about this mess. It is bound to cause
outrage in some circles, and would in Germany and Austria lead to a stiff prison sentence for somebody.

April 3
2008: Sometime before noon the webmaster at 10 Downing Street posted a new website with a logo featuring a clearly visible, correctly oriented NSDAP swastika.

At around 11pm, after mocking emails and with general hilarity spreading web-wide, the site became Password Restricted.

On April 4 the site was restored, but with a sanitised logo.

By that evening the site appeared to have incorporated most of the suggestions made
on the Devil’s Kitchen blog regarding its poor design.

“It is ridiculous to suggest that Gordon
Brown is anything like Adolf Hitler” said one wag on ConservativeHome, “Hitler was elected.”
