Excuse me, where did i once mention the race or colour of anyone?

That's your problem, not mine quite clearly.

You said BNP are racist, bigoted fuckwits.

Saying that, didnt the Tory party kik out a general a few months ago for something racist?

Now you see, i'm confused.

You're saying the BNP aren't racist?

And you are now telling me the BNP is only for white people?

It's like shooting fish in a barrel it really is.

One wonders what rights the BNP would give to a 'black' person who's family has been living here for over 300 years? Surely they would be more 'british' than most White folks? Certainly more british than myself.

Slightly off topic, I dont think I could vote BNP either, but I work with quite a few Asian people, a lot of whom see India as thier first home (or Pakistan, or wherever) and England as something less. That annoys me to be honest, makes me wonder where it all went wrong.
On the other hand ,I know other Asian people who see themsleves as British, you cant judge a book by its cover, regardless of what the BNP tell us :)

I never said the BNP were not racist. As for the racist, bigoted fuckwits remark, I was making reference to the people in this country that hate the West and want to blow people up.

Im up for the BNP kicking out the people who obviously dont want to be here(they wouldnt be spouting how much they hate the West, yet they wont go back "home" as Thord puts it. Im not for the BNP kicking out every "immegrant" as that would mean 90% of us would have to go back to Germany/France/Scandinavia. Hell, even the Queen would have to leave.

The BNP will never get in power, look at what happened in France 4 years back when Le Pen was nearly President. It showed the world what the French people really thought about what was going on in thier country.

I refuse to vote Labour/Tory as they are both as bad as one another when it comes to false promises, such as Education being improved, the NHS being "saved". I voted the BNP the last election even if I dont support thier views entirely. Im just showing those higher up in the chain that people ARE getting upset when it comes to how this country is being run, which is basically by the Boys in Brussels. If I didn't vote, Labour/Tory wouldn't know that I was pissed at them would they?

It's nice that someone admits it, props to you.

So why do you support them? I am actually genuinely interested what motivates to vote for extreme parties?

In the above post, shows the major parties that something is not right when it comes to how this country is being run (ie from the EU)

Think one of the barmy rules now is that its wrong to fly the flag of St George in your car as it might "offend" someone...

Another rules is that you cant say "Merry Christmas" as it can offend people.

This is a Christian country last time I checked, with nearly 1000 years of Christianity. Imagine if you went to Iran and told them they couldn't celebrate Eid, I would give you about 5 seconds before you were hung, drawn and quartered :)

If this countries traditions offend you, there you go, boat/airport is there, don't let the door hit you on the way out sort of thing. We(as a country) have let people from every race/creed and colour come in and live here. Not a problem with that, as long as they accept the traditions that exhist here, such as Christmas and Easter and integrate.

What I have a problem with is those that want us to change our National holidays. Those that sit and spout how much the West is bad.

Sorry for keeping to edit, keep finding things why I voted for the BNP :)

Probably the main thing is the political correctness thing.

Sometimes I wonder why no one has started a credible opposition within the last few hundred years. A party that had as its mandate: simplification (not necessarily a reduction) of taxes for people and business alike, a simplification and improvement in the NHS and education systems, a reduction in military outlay for shit like nukes, a LOGICAL drugs and substance abuse policy that covers equally fags, skag and beer and a few other key points would get 95% of the vote.

So you're saying if, at Christmas, I wander the streets shouting Merry Christmas I'll be arrested? Or if I attach an English flag to my car?

The point he's trying to make (I think) is that a BNP vote is a good protest vote. And in many ways I agree with him.
However whenever I feel the urge to do so I go on thier website or talk to some of thier supporters , and it puts me right off :)

I don't know if you will or not. Its upto how much the police think you are offending people. Im not entirely sure how it all works.

Its like councils banning christmas decorations as its offensive. Plenty of stuff about that at Christmastime.

Was also how you have to call a "snowman" a snowperson. Brainstorming is offensive to mentally ill people. And this just in, apparently maverick is banned as it is to do with branding cattle, which could be offensive to those where the cow is a sacred animal.

Well I live in Willesden Green, NW London - not exactly a predominantly white Christian area, about as multi-cultural sa sit comes. We still had/have christmas decorations each year.

Edit: Leggy, tbh not voting IS a waste (if you ask me) as it can and often is interpreted as simply people being too lazy to get out there, or that they just don't give a shit. A better way to register your distain is to turn up but ruin your vote. Then they can't say you just couldn't be bothered.

What the fuck has 'offending' people got to do with it? Fuck that.

If I get arrested I'll make sure I have broken the fucking law.

Agreed, thats why i voted the BNP instead of not voting :)

BNP will make people get up and take note, voting for the Green won't have that much of an impact

Then spoil your vote. Or better still, why not vote for the candidate that best serves your interest? Since thats what you're actually supposed to vote for.

Think one of the barmy rules now is that its wrong to fly the flag of St George in your car as it might "offend" someone...

You made that up.

Another rules is that you cant say "Merry Christmas" as it can offend people.

You made that up, too.

Fucking hell, the internet sunshine bus just stopped and let a window licker out.

We(as a country) have let people from every race/creed and colour come in and live here. Not a problem with that, as long as they accept the traditions that exhist here, such as Christmas and Easter and integrate.

What if the Picts came back and wanted us to revert to Paganism? They were here first, so by your reasoning they should have the final say.

What I have a problem with is those that want us to change our National holidays. Those that sit and spout how much the West is bad.

Newsflash - the West isn't a bed of roses. A lot of it is a cess pit of inequality, irrationality, poverty, and downright ignorance. And Iran is actually a civlilised and wealthy country.

How can I make it up when there has been letters sent by the government saying you cant do such and such as its offensive?

Or people being told to stop singing baba black sheep and now have to sing rainbow sheep?

And before you say thats bullshit, my mum works in a primary school and they have had to change lots of nursey ryhmes as they can be considered offensive. Call me a lier but I dont see how I can be bullshitting when its true

As for the candidate that best supports me, governments are a laod of shit. Once they get in power they only want to line thier own nest at the expensive of others. Can you see the NHS being such a shit state if all the MPS took a 20% pay cut of thier 100 grand a year jobs?

Thadius how much of "this" do you experience daily that affects your life and how much of this has been influenced by reading the daily mail, or sun media based basically?

She said: "It was a junior-level decision and it happened to go into print which was an error basically.

"I think it was certainly not a council policy that we should call the lights winter lights."

If you want to use links to further your arguement, it's always best to read them first :)

Why should I be attacked for doing so? Thought this was democracy at its finest!

People are examining your points and discussing them. It may feel like people are attacking you because your points don't really stand up to scrutiny.

You could try UKIP who, to the best of my limited knowledge, don't like Brussels but are still down with the blacks.

So a junior council employee is now a member of the government?


article said:
A number of town halls

Yet again, a link to the actions of town councils.

Do you understand the difference between a council, an MP, and a government?

Anyone who says Daily Mail in a oh-so-clever FH way should be smacked sharply round the head with a cricket bat Furr :p

Thaddius has his opinion, the fact that he doesnt put it over as well as you keyboard warriors doesnt mean that he's not entitled to it.

I did read them thank you and tbh, its always blamed on an "error" when a company knows they fucked up. Hell, the gas board tried screwing my dad over and blamed it on an "error"

Would they class it as an error and refunded the cash if hed have paid and didnt investigate?

Yep, we can all have our say. Which entitles me to point out how bigoted your opinions are.

Right, well if you're saying she was lying/covering it up there's not much more we can say about it as there's obviously no way we can confirm that was or wasn't the case.
