¡Muchas gracias!
Most anti-fascists don't want or need the state's protection. They're perfectly capable of protecting themselves.
If the BNP try to march, especially in a multicultural area, they should be opposed. Look up the history of the Battle of Cable Street sometime.
and stopping them physically just gives rise to their accusations that those who oppose them are violent.
With reference to the two other quotes:
"If I can shoot rabbits..." & "If you tolerate this..."
They are both quotes from Welshmen who went out to Spain to fight facism. The Manics just used them in their song...
:rolleyes:
seconded
:no:
I agree that in some cases it is a protest vote. But people have to realise that voting BNP is supporting a racist and fascist party.
There is absolutely no excuse to vote for the BNP- unless of course you agree with their racist xenophobic agenda.
Are they not right wing enough for you?
The BNP does not believe in immigration control. The BNP believes in an end to immigration and repatriation of those who are already here.
Is that what you and others want? Close Britain to darkies and Asians and kick out those are already in?
Sounds pretty racist to me...
I think there are better ways.
I have posted on another thread that there are reasons why people vote BNP - the government's handling of the dispersal of asylum seekers into already underfunded and work deprived areas (classic divide and rule), the inability of the left to get it together, tabloid media strirring it up etc.
I did post all that a short while ago and you dismissed it out of hand.
There are some left wing alternatives attempting to engage in working class areas. The IWCA for example http://www.iwca.info/ (no, I'm not a member)
Surely that's a wasted voted on the Tories, who could use every vote they get in order to beat Labour?
There is also a limit to what one is prepared to do for protest. I find the BNP far too repellent even for protest voting, and they will be using the extra votes to rake up their racist agenda and spread hatred.
I'd rather spoil my ballot if I have to.
Yes, but Labour do not care who is getting the votes, they only notice that the number of votes they are receiving is dropping. So why not give your vote to someone else other than the BNP?
Glad to hear it.
Good
That they are copying Liberals? But it is obvious. They are for mightier welfare state and want to expend state’s control over new spheres of private life and economy.
That political isolationism is good? Again, it’s obvious. How much cash would you save abolishing Foreign office, these ambassadors, international conferences that are nothing but five star tourism at your expense…
Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship. :crying: :yes:
Try reading the post again. :rolleyes:
I like your style Xico.
