BBC/ For the first time since 1993, a Czech court has abolished a political party. The Supreme Court called the Workers’ Party, established in 2003, a threat to democracy, describing it as xenophobic, anti-Semitic and homophobic and sharing Nazi ideology with links to white-supremacist and racist groups. Judge Vojtech Simicek wrote “society must realize that the causes for the Workers’ Party lie deeply within itself. The Workers’ Party is not an external enemy to society, but one of its faces.” The party plans an appeal.
