Kids: Don't Take lectures on Nazis or those who fought them from celebs or in this case the professionally dim Jedward

Remember Jedward, two young men from Ireland who sang a bit and prided themselves on being very thick and, like Joy Behar, folks who show why you should never take a lecture on matters related to Nazis from a liberal celeb.


The Jedward duo come from a country which ducked fighting fascism in World War Two, staying neutral although many brave Irishmen, none the less, signed up to help Mr Churchill out. In 1945, the leader of the Irish Free State, Eamon de Velara sent a message to the German ambassador in Dublin to express his condolences on the death of Herr Hitler. Meanwhile Winston Churchill had a rather more distinguished war.


Jedward can say what they want. Thanks to Britain winning the war, folks across Europe, except in Scotland as of last week, can say what they want. But Jedward does offer us a reminder as to why on the subject of Nazis and those who opposed them, you should never listen to celebs, even very minor ones.
