UPDATE - Austrian far-right leader Haider killed in crash :huh:

By Alexandra Zawadil

VIENNA, Oct 11 (Reuters) - Austrian far-right leader Joerg
Haider, a charismatic populist who helped thrust anti-immigrant
politics into the European mainstream, was killed in a car
accident on Saturday.

Haider, 58, who led the right into a coalition government
from 2000 to 2006, polarised Austria and drew international
condemnation with his anti-foreigner outbursts and for appearing
to endorse some Nazi policies.
