BNP Win 2 Euro Seats: Justifiable?

[paraffin]

Voters in Leeds + Manchester have helped to elect two BNP members to the European Parliament.
Should those voters be admired for exercising their democratic rights?
Or should they be roundly condemned for helping to elect such an extreme racist party to British Politics?

Zacmaster - I too have to hand it to you. Some excellent points you've been making.

I just want those who support the policies of the BNP to explain this conundrum...

When you say "they're looking out for us Brits", do you mean "us white Brits"? And if so, is this a fair deal for ordinary hard working non-white families.

What's the deal there?

And don't think I mean immigrants...I'm talking about the third and fourth generation non-indigenous Brits.

Will the BNP be fighting for their jobs and communities too?

How will it work?

The thing that scares me is that if the BNP joined forces with the UKIP, the vote would take them to first place in a lot of constituencies.

If Labour has failed the working man you would expect them to turn elsewhere ie BNP.

Aren't they anti-all things foreign?
Wot they wanna go to europe for, then?

[sp1814]

Don't you mean the working white man rov1200?

The BNP as I see it, couldn't care less about British non-whites.

Why is everyone ignoring this?

Is it because their supporters know that people like me don't fit into their demographic.

As I have a good job and have paid something like �100k in taxes in my current job over the past eight years, don't you think that me and hundreds of thousands like me have a greater claim on Britishness than the unemployed football hooligans and criminals who make up the tawdry ranks of the BNP?

Surely there's a problem there, that they haven't thought of?

my work colleague who isnt british (has a work permit) was on his way to work several months ago when he came into the office he was laughing, he said he walked past some groups of people with posters, banners... 'BRITISH JOBS FOR BRITISH PEOPLE'........... As he walked past them he wanted to shout back at them 'F U im not British but im on my way to a British job!! haha'

lol that was so funny when he told us that!!

BNP( British Nazi Party) always need to be taken to task as does anyone who ever votes for them as everything they stand for is abhorrent to all races yet especialy to all non whites & jews, yet many whites are vocal in expressing their outrage at this party gaining power, too. Dissilusioned with any of the main parties then there are many other parties you can vote for including Independent candidates so that argument of BNP being an alternative to voting labour or any other mainstream party is frankly null. Diversity is good in the UK whether it be a new influx which could even include doctors that could save all/any one of our lives, or second or third or fourth generations of so called non indigenous peoples. Anyone here watch Channel 4 news last night? Concur with very good points made by sp1814 & Claud.Butler too. BTW delighted that the Ghurkas won the right to stay in the UK recently- they are very brave soldiers who have fought for us many times over so thank goodness common sense won the day. Joanna Lumley wins my vote, too ;-)
