To be fair that's not the BNP. It's a bit like SWP being tarred for taking funds from Saddam, when it was the Workers Revolutionary Party.
But this ban doesnt change any attitudes, it just means they cant be a member, they can still attend meetings, deliver leaflets etc. they just cant be a member. The policy is worse than useless because it creates the feeling that the BNP are so powerful and dangerous they have to be banned. There is nothing like banning an organisation to give it power.
But banning membership does absolutely nothing to deal with the views, they may well still be just as racist as they were before, and they will still have all the authority.
And why arent communist members banned? They might discriminate against a rich person who was robbed.
This measure is both pointless and unethical, pointless because it does nothing to address the problem, and unethical because it discriminates against someone because of their political views.
