When you recently highlighted the Jim Connell plaque, somebody complained that Lewisham had wasted public money on leftists (Connell wrote the Red Flag) and that they would never do the same for somebody right wing. Well this plaque, put up by Lewisham at about the same time, certainly gives the lie to that! Williamson, best known for Tarka the Otter, was a disgusting anti-semite and prominent meber of the British Union of Fascists.
