A beauty pageant - think Miss World meets the bottom of a barrel that is a century deep with dirt and grime and the winner scrapes it - has been branded "beneath contempt" by the Scottish Council of Jewish Communities.

Not surprising really since the competition was held to crown "Miss Hitler 2016" in a beauty pageant organized by a bunch of white supremacists, who believe they're some kind of neo-Nazi youth movement.

​What they actually look like is a bunch of clueless, boneheaded English Defense League supporters circa 2008 who have just tottered off a coach for a rally, wearing stilettos and caked in orange fake tan, just because they had nothing else to do.

'Back and More Radical': Pegida Movement Demos Marred as Violence Spreads
​National Action — the fascist group which organized the competition — reckon they did so because, "many comment that they see women at our demonstrations but relatively little is known about them and they rarely get much spotlight or recognition."

"We organized this competition to give our girls a chance to express their beliefs and share their motivations for embracing National Socialism. We were not disappointed."

They may not have been disappointed — but the vast majority of people are disgusted, following the crowning of a Scottish woman, Miss Hitler 2016, who appears in photographs on the website with part of her face covered.

'Ugliest Beauty Contest Ever Held'

​Without going into detail, basically to avoid repeating the neo-Nazi group's extreme right-wing and anti-Semitic views and what the winner thinks of Jews, Ephraim Borowski, director of the Scottish Council of Jewish Communities told Sputnik that the competition was "beneath contempt."

"The murder of 6 million Jews and some 5 million others is never a laughing matter. As with so much of 'National Action's' activities, this is intended to give deliberate offense, and is beneath contempt."

The Board of Deputies of British Jews also condemned the group. "This is a clear case of inciting racial hatred. It is possibly the ugliest beauty contest ever held," a spokesperson said.  

National Action, which organized the competition to give girls "a chance to express themselves," actually provided the T-shirts for the women to wear.
