dieseldick....I would defend your right to support any Party that you wish to.
But if you say that you used to support the National Front and that was when you were "very young and stupid and didn't understand a lot going on around me in the world" and that you now support "Britain First" it would seem to me that you really haven't travelled very far in the last 25 years.
Britain First is most certainly racist, of that there is very little doubt.
The party was founded by Jim Dowson, an anti-abortion campaigner linked to loyalist militants in Belfast.
If that wasn't bad enough, in May 2014, Britain First announced that it would be deploying "hundreds of ex-British Forces" alongside "several armoured ex-army Land Rovers" to protect the UKIP leader Nigel Farage after he had been opposed on the street by supporters of Scottish independence. God knows I am hardly Farage's biggest fan, but quite what the poor man has done to deserve the tender mercies of "Britain First" I am not sure !
As if British Jews don't have enough trouble as it is, in 2015, Britain First offered "solidarity patrols" in areas of London with high Jewish populations while blaming anti-Semitism on Islam. The Community Security Trust, an organisation against anti-Semitism, has warned Jews not to become involved with Britain First, and has likened this policy to similar ones by the English Defence League and the BNP, saying that all of these groups were opposing Muslims more than supporting Jews.
This is the organisation that you say you support. Perhaps you should take a large breath and think again.
