You gotta love google ads and the BNP

You have to hand it to Google Ads - they can't be accused of discrimination. Visitors to GreenArrow.com, the bloggers' forum for the far-right British National Party, have been surprised in recent days to discover a series of full-colour banner ads for non-white dating agencies.
Inter-Racial Romances.com and Muslima - "a truly Muslim marriage and matrimonial service" - are both being plugged on the BNP forum - despite the party's strong line against inter-racial marriage.
Google Ads evidently decided that because of the multiple uses of words such as Muslim and Arab the site was 'relevant' to its clients' interests.

Nice one, Mani! As someone who has been very happily "inter-racially married" for the last 22 years, that tickled me!
