AUSTRIAN FREEDOM PARTY seeks to make Austria a ‘burqa-free’ zone.

Next week the party proposes to introduce a private member’s bill into the Austrian parliament.

Upper Austrian provincial leader Manfred Haimbuchner who has repeatedly warned of the threat of Islamification and problems with integration in Austria, has connections with the image.

Austria’s far right Freedom Party (FPO) is causing outrage with its advertising campaign. The slogan causing all the fuss appears in bold letters across huge billboards next to the smiling face of Freedom Party leader Heinz Christian Strache. “Mehr Mut für Wiener Blut” – more courage for Viennese Blood. The next line says – “Too many foreigners does no one any good

The Freedom Party critic known as FPO used a photograph in their poster that was taken from the Fotolia image company. Specific conditions for use of this image preclude its use in any political activity, and require a clear copyright notice to be retained, neither of which conditions were observed.

Further investigation revealed that the FPO appear to have copied the idea for the poster campaign from the right-wing group ‘Identitären Movement’, who are active in France and Germany.
