Plan B Photographed in Neo-Nazi Band T-Shirt
lan B has been criticised for wearing a Skrewdriver t-shirt on the front cover of the latest Shortlist magazine.
The most recent issue of the free publication - which has a circulation of over half a million copies a week - shows the rapper wearing the neo-Nazi band’s t-shirt. It is unclear whether he was stylised to wear the top, or he turned up at the photo shoot wearing the item of clothing.
Skrewdriver were a notorious “white power” group with links to the National Front. The person on the t-shirt Plan B is wearing is Nicky Crane, who provided security for the band and was convicted several times for racial aggravated assaults.
The New Statesman has questioned the rapper’s motive for wearing the t-shirt and have quoted journalist Brian Whelan, who wrote on his blog: “It is very unusual that Plan B would knowingly wear this t-shirt and that Shortlist would stick it on the front of their publication.
