Sinn Fein compare Gregory Campbell to a Nazi

The Newsletter and the BBC are reporting that the youth wing of Sinn Fein (Ógra Shinn Féin) has had a blog with a picture of Gregory Campbell superimposed on a body wearing Nazi regalia. Mr. Campbell seems less than impressed and apparently said he was “quite happy Sinn Féin are unhappy with me but a boundary had been crossed…The irony will not be lost on people that this is the youth wing of an organisation that has had fascist tendencies calling a democrat a fascist.”
According to the Newsletter SF MLA Barry McElduff said he would pass on the comments to his party colleagues. Since the blog has apparently been there since July; it seems surprising that no SF leaders were aware of it previously.
