BNP win 2 council seats in Burnley Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

For those of you not aware, last nights UK Council elections saw 2 British Nationalist Party coucillors elected in Burnley..

Burnley was the scene of race riots last year, between the white community and the mainly Pakistani/Bangladeshi communities ..

the following article explains more :-

http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/uk...000/1959420.stm

Who's to blame for the current situation ??

Intollerant white people ?
Ethnic Minorities, refusing to fit in ?
Both sides not understanding each other ??
or is it as the article suggests, nothing to do with race at all, but the social exclusion felt by all residents of Burnley ..

Its time for the Anglo Saxon white's to regain control of their desting. this is no a racist rant, nor am I racist. What bugs us is there is no respect for the traditions and principles of "English Men". They dont speek our language, the government and councils pamper ethnic minorities every need and make them an exception.

They chose to live here, so embrace our culture.

BMP are to extreme we need a more moderate alliance >

What a load of racist bullsh*t. We don't live in the 19th century, we live in a very different society, a multiethnic one with different people with different approaches. I couldn't imagine going back to that age. I think you are speaking crap my friend, and racist crap at that. Anglo-Saxon's regaining 'control of their destiny'? What the hell is that supposed to mean? Set up concentration camps?

I find allegiance to arbitrary nation states quite amusing.

If ethnic minorities were given the same treatment as everyone else in the nation there would be no problems.

It is that they receive more in benefits, and help in getting jobs that upsets the nation's people.

Treat them equally and there'd be no problem. Leftist policies of unfairly advantaging ethnic minorities has eld to a far-right party being elected. They only have themselves to blame.

Obviously you don't either

Im with Provost on this 100% .. I am married to one of those Ethnic Minorities you refer to .. she speaks perfect English, infact, corrects my spelling all the time.

Lets face it, what is English anyway ?? Anglo Saxon's ?? Im from Viking origin .. should I s0d off back to Scadanavia ?? Anglo Saxons are from Europe .. s0d off back there .. true Celts ?? or are they ?? after mixing with Romans, Normans, Saxon's, Vikings, is there such thing ??

The reality is, your as English as you think you are ..

What I personally object to, is people (be them from any background) who seem to live there life in total negativity regards to there home nation .. we're all allowed to be irritated by what is not good, or unjust in life, but some people take it to such an extreme that they hate the country they live in .. i know many whites that do this, just as I also know many muslim Pakistani's who hero worship Pakistan, and they've never even been there .. there is good and bad in all .. and when as a whole we wake up and realise we don't belond to any group other than mankind .. we will all be better for it.

It's not a case of sending them back home. It's that we should all play by the same rules, and such policies as "equal opportunities" generally mean anything but that for the white man.

I don't know anything about this town nor the trouble it has, so I'm not heading this to anyone or anything in particular.
But I would just want to say, about a general statement : when you immigrate into another country, the minimum is that you try to adapt to (learning the langage, respect the culture, obey the laws...).

Everybody should take a minute and not get carried away with the cries of "Racism, Fascism" etc until they themselves have read the policies of the BNP. We have to ask ourselves WHY this party did so well.

When are these bloody nationalists going to get their heads around the fact that this *is* Britain in the 21st century. We have a great deal of ethnic minorities in cities - and as long as they are welcomed and integrated into society, without 'parties' like the BNP throwing petrol bombs into their houses first chance they get, that is a *good* thing - I can't see how it can possibly be anything else. I can't see how anyone can have any sympathy whatsoever with a group of people whose entire thesis is based on prejudice, hatred and the erroneous assumption that England 'belongs' to the white Anglo-Saxons - everyone else get out. It's bollocks.

And no, I'm not talking about the Tories.

They *are* modern-day fascists, in the same way Le Pen *is* a fascist. Of course they can't portray themselves as such, but there's a very definite seed of hatred there.

The only "hatred" is as a result of policies that actively benefitted and benefit ethnic minorities for no reason at all.

It's arguments like Stew's in this thread that get the BNP elected. It makes that kind of abhorrent racist rhettoric vaguely pallatble to people.

The only reason Ethnic Minorities are seen to receive positive discrimination is because of the barriers put up to them becoming an equal part of society. The reason they have the positive discrimination in the first place is to help them have the same kind of chance as all us privilidged middle class white boys, hey Stew.

And if you believe what the BNP say then you are more naieve than I thought. Of course they try and make their policies sound reasonable. It's a shame there are people ignorant enough not to be able to see through them.

Boddington's - while you may have some sympathy with the British National Party's policies, you cannot hide from the fact that under the surface, they are fascists, and racists. Do you honestly think the fifth of the electorate in those very small inner-city areas have 'some sympathy with some of their policies'? No, they want rid of the bloody Pakis, that's why they voted for them!! Labour and Conservative politicians generally agree on very few things - but one of them is that the BNP need to be stopped.

They are just trying to stifle dissenting voices about their leftist policies that no other party is willing to counter.

IE, maintaining the status quo, the establishment. I never thought I'd see Rich arguing pro-establishment.

Got spare money?

So what do you agree with Stew? Britain for whities? Kick the wogs out? That is what the BNP stands for, so quite why you are aligning yourselves with them I don't know.

Oh of course, you are probably in favour of their 'economic policy'

Come on, there are problems in society, but you have to ask why they arise and solve them at their roots, why there is a large amount of disunity (and it isn't just a one-sided thing, but proportionally far more prevalent amongst the white population). Results like Burnley send a strong message, and not a very pleasant one.
