The Austrian authorities now say they will deport David Irving “schnellstmöglichst”, which means very, very, very quickly indeed. It may not be quite as a quick as that, but I dare say he’ll be here well before Christmas. And no doubt calling, laughably, for an http://www.gooakley.com/ academic boycott of Austria.

Michael Simoner, writing in Der Standard, fears this means the Austrian anti-Nazi legislation no longer has teeth: he says giving the Nazi salute and signing the “Horst Wessel” are no longer regarded as serious matters. I agree with his concern.
