THE BRITISH NATIONALIST PARTY


Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't they get the largest number of votes they've ever had this election?

That's scary, you'd have thought that by now, people would have come to respect other cultures.



So with one hand on the wheel
The other out the window
With a smile on my face
My middle finger up...
Beep boop. I'm a bot.

    I don't know about the tally, I'm afraid.

    As for respect for other cultures... Hey, evolution takes a while. Give 'em a few thousand years and perhaps they'll evolve into a more responsible species. Perhaps.

    The BNP respect other peoples cultures. They just don't want it here.

    I'm glad they got alot of votes, It proves that democracy works. There are lots of people out there who have these misguided moronic views and don't get the chance to voice them in an election(how many areas did they stand in?)so the truth gets hidden.

    Naturally, I am even happier that they didn't get anyone elected. Because, basically I think they are scum but I would defend their right to be scum.

    MOK's about right - they do, unfortunately, have a right to be scum. they only really gained any popularity in oldham (both east and west), gaining around 16% of the votes - 5000 per seat. not nearly enough to be elected, but enough to cause a stir.

    the problem with organisations like the BNP is that they themselves dont commit or overtly incite violence - if they did they could be shut down in a flash. instead, their 'activists' play on people's fear and ignorance, and in times of crisis (such as recently in oldham) are able to turn otherwise logical people in to racists. tis a great shame that this happens, but that's one of the prices we pay for democracy.

    BNP support will never be sufficiently large to gain a single seat at westminster, and i dont think they post european candidates. so, to all intents and purposes they're just a stupid extremist minority.

    if they truly believe in the 'go back to where you came from' theory, they'd all better fuck off back to scandinavia and northern germany, and leave the UK to the celts. thats how much logic they posses.

    i agree with MOK. it's democracy at work, and u can't argue with that without arguing with the basic maxims that most of the worlds governments are built on (or supposed to be built on).

    it's even worse in switzerland. the morons that choose and get to express their views are often also the majority.

    Look into these tired eyes. See something you might recognise.

    I think its clear that the only reason they got so many votes(16% in east Oldham) is because both the whites and asians in the area are having the others culture forced upon them. The Pakistanis and Bangladeshis want to keep hold of their traditional values, religion(Islam) etc and are on the whole reluctant to sign up to the British way of life. The whites in the area are feeling threatened because the Muslims insist on being so different and setting up a little Pakistan in northern England.

    Of course it could just be the meddling fools who get involved in anything where race is involved, Anti Nazi League, NF etc etc.

    I've always thought there would be far fewer racist problems if we could get rid of the 'community leaders' and just let the people on the street sort it out rather than letting the polititians in.

    Really, I must ask; just how well are the wogs taking to being 'subjects' of the crown?

    Bringing them in certainly fractured british society...or so it appeared from here in US...where our own home grown tyrants have taken to social engineering and effectively destroyed the public school system in US...children bussed for hours each day to achieve an unidentifiable agenda resulting in abandoning public schools to the 'public' and demographic moves to defeat 'court' orders which offend all races.

    Didn't the Magna Carta grant to subjects of the crown the right to a Jury Trial? I find it incredible that Tony Blair is trying to get rid of such an ancient institution...and wonder 'why' he would do such a ting.

    Currently in US we are plagued by a doctrine called 'communitarianism' which is being pushed by 'some' in all levels of government...it is nothing less than X-rated socialism (communism) designed to appeal to the weak minded and poorly educated...another attempt by a democrats to commit suiside.

    Darn...didn't know that it was a 'racist' term! Really, our 'racist' terms appear to be much different from yours...and I just took the term from an old british movie that I saw as a kid...a really long time ago.

    Please, and this is not intended to offend, but would you consider posting what are considered 'racist' terms over there...makes it much easier to avoid insult when none are intended. After all, if I insult someone it seems only appropriate that either I intend to do so and it not be by default.

    (A current explamation of what the 'offending' term means today would be helpful.)

    the BNP aren't just about having a "britain for the british" though...some of their points are quite good ones

    although some of their ideas that a british person is a white person, are quite dated, they do have the right idea that we can't be seen as an easy target for immigrants etc

    btw, "offensive" terms would just be the likes of "wogs", "niggers"...in fact im not too sure anymore

    anything that isnt "of a non-white ethnic origin" is apparently racist to the politically correct

    What is a W*G anyway. is it a racial slur for Africans.

    It's hard to keep track with what is acceptable in Amerika.

    First they were "NEGROS" then "BLACKS"
    and now "AFRICAN AMERICANS"

    I work with many and we still call them Blacks and none take offense.
    They call us White, But when I hold a piece of white paper against my skin I don't see the resembalance.

    Freedom rocks !
