Wait for it - Mr Arthur Kemp will now launch into a diatribe against this work and tell you all about the fact that the diary was written with a bic pen, which was not available at the time of the war. This is one of his pet issues so prepare for the onslaught!
Anne Frank's diaries is one of the biggest weapons against the racist propaganda of the BNP.
