I'd love to see the more progressive skinheads asserting themselves and teaching people that not all skinheads are fascists or bigots. They've suffered from bad PR for decades.
...but the UK skinheads are very different from the US skinheads mainly because of the wonderful devotion and connection to Football (soccer) in the UK. The US skinheads didn't have as prominent and mainstream a rally point. And that's why more often skinheads in the US were connected to illegal drugs or white supremacy (or more recently trailer trash).
