British Commie Inherits 20.5 Million Pounds

Interesting...

THE leader of Britain’s Communist Party has become a multi-millionaire — inheriting a £20.5million painting that had been stolen by the Nazis.

Anita Halpin’s huge windfall came when Berlin Street Scene, by German artist Ernst Kirchner, was sold at auction.

It was snatched from the home of her German grandparents in 1936, but was returned to her as sole surviving heir under Nazi restitution laws.

I’m sure she’ll be donating most of it to charity shortly.  She doesn’t need all that money.  Keeping it would be entirely too bourgeoisie.

I’m sure she’ll be distributing it to her neighbors soon.
