When the Swastikas Came to White Hart Lane.

The article focuses on the controversial 1935 football match between England and Germany held at White Hart Lane in London amid rising tensions due to the Nazi regime's policies, including the recent enactment of the Nuremberg Laws. Despite protests from groups such as the Anti-Nazi Council and the Trade Union Congress, who feared the match could serve as Nazi propaganda and objected to it being held at a club with a significant Jewish following, the game proceeded with England winning 3-0. German fans attended in large numbers, some displaying Nazi symbols, but the event passed largely without major incident, though protests and symbolic acts occurred. The article also notes the political context surrounding subsequent matches, including the 1938 game in Berlin where the England team performed the Nazi salute under official instruction.
