I thought I'd do a quick intro to the more prominent members of the BNP, for the benefit of anyone in any doubt on this "party".
Nick Griffin- (Leader since 1998)
Criminal convictions- Incitement to racial hatred in 2000 (6 months suspended)
Notes- Originally prominent in the pro-Nazi National Front. In 1988 he went to Tripoli courtesy of Gadaffi in the hope of securing funding. Unfortunately all they got was 5,000 copies of Colonel Gadaffi's Green Book.
In 1991 Griffin and a number of other NF leaders left the NF to form the International Third Position, a small but fanatical fascist group. One of the figures behind the ITP was Roberto Fiore, an Italian fascist who fled to London with up to forty others to escape police capture. Fiore was later convicted in absentia. Some of Fiore's associates were behind the Bologna station bombing in 1980 that killed 80 people.

The BNP have done a fine job in convincing a small minority of idiots (like Stew) that they're a credible mainstream political party. They certain have a few very intelligent people at BNP HQ, and have become pretty good at portraying themselves as the "victims". That doesn't hide the fact that the majority of the party leadership are criminal, racist, homophobic scum, as Alex went into in some depth before.
Incidentally, I think possibly the scariest section of the BNP is the YBNP "Supporters' Club". I feel so sorry for Jennifer Griffin; looks like a pretty, intelligence 15-year-old girl and yet her mind has been poisoned by the people around her. 
Unfortunately for the mainstream majority, certain groups "fighting against fascism" aren't doing the cause any good. On one hand you've got the Anti-Nazi League, which sounds good in theory until you realise that the majority of the ANL are members of the extreme-left out to push their own extremist agenda. You also get lots of well-meaning people - normally students - pushing leaflets through doors in Burnley, Oldham and elsewhere saying how bad the BNP are. This is playing into their hands; opponents of the BNP must campaign positively or else they are just doing the extreme-right a favour.

I don't think they are "just as bad", but in my experience of the ANL they certainly don't help. Here in York the leading ANL member is also the SWSS ringleader. He's a mature student who claims to have been part of the "fight against the BNP" in Tower Hamlets back in 1992 (I think). He's as closed-minded as they come (denouncing anyone he disagrees with, be they Tory, LibDem, Labour or apolitical a "fascist" despite the fact that liberal use of the word undermines the meaning when it comes to meeting a real fascist), has verbally abused and physically threatened myself and others over the past year, and is also (along with most students on the extreme-left) blatantly anti-Jewish (rather ironic for a self-proclaimed "anti-racist and anti-fascist").
I'd love to say that this person is an aberration but from what I've heard it seems unlikely. There are undoubtedly many well-meaning people within the anti-racist movements but they seem to get outshouted when push comes to shove. I'd also still fundamentally question the tactic of being "anti" the BNP, rather than pro- the alternative. Obviously informing people of the BNP members' often shady past is worth doing, but incoherent babble pushed through letterboxes by students (be they well-meaning or self-promoting) is, in my opinion, only likely to provoke people into voting BNP more.

A lot of members or supporters of the BNP are not racsist. They are just angry at fanatical muslims declaring that Islam is the future for Britain(As long as these Bast*rds are doing this there will always be a BNP). The ANL where there of course but they didnt seem to care about the offensive behaviour of these muslims only the BNP who were protesting against them.
I agree with a lot of the official policies of the BNP I do not however agree with the personal vievs of many in the leadership who view non whites as inferior. IMO it will be far better for the party to get rid of the rascist extremists at the top and get people who are not rascists just Pro-British.

1)A mass expansion of freedom and democracy to roll back the erosion of our traditional freedoms and truly reflect the wishes of the people; the adoption of popular referenda and hi-tech direct democracy
2)The establishment of a government that puts British interests first.
An end to immigration and the scandal of bogus asylum-seekers flooding Britain. The use of the billions now wasted in foreign aid to fund generous "Homeward Bound" schemes to encourage immigrants to return to their lands of origin.
3)The use of the £1 million per hour we at present pay the E.U. to fund the restoration of an effective National Health Service and proactive measures to a healthier population in the first place.
4)A crack-down on crime and tougher treatment of criminals, including the return of the death penalty for child killers and terrorists.
5)An alternative defense strategy based on the principle of armed neutrality; no British blood should be shed in conflicts which do not involve vital British interests. The restoration of the County Regiment system and the reversal of defense cuts which have weakened our Armed Forces and cost thousands of jobs.
6)The crushing of the IRA and other terrorist groups, the termination of the Anglo-Irish agreement and the establishment of a devolved, non-sectarian parliament in Northern Ireland.

Based on at least 2 of those you appear to be Mr Tony. More seriously have you any idea how simplistic some of those ideas you have just advocated actually are?
No recent government advocates letting bogus asylum seekers in but to listen to some its as if the "problem" is as easy to solve as waving a magic wand. Its actually not that easy and in case you didn't notice a lot of recent government legislation has run into trouble and opposition, not least fronm the judiciary, who have asserted that a lot of it strikes at basic human rights and freedoms. How do you solve the problem then? Taken even more rights and freedoms away? And how will you do that while asserting traditional British rights? Do tell I'm all ears.
Also incase you hadn't noticed, Straw and Blunkett have actually managed to be more reactionary and knee-jerk than Howard ever was. How will you top that? Maybe more attacks on basic freedoms and human rights*?
How will you shut down the IRA without more of the same?
Throwing more money at the health service - didn't you notice the government already did that? Where is the improvement? We need more doctors and Nurses not more money in the system.
All this and you also want quote:
A mass expansion of freedom and democracy to roll back the erosion of our traditional freedoms |
Do you not see the internal contradictions of what you advocate?
* Please note that the European Declaration on Human Rights was actually drafted by the British Government in the 1950's

This "expansion of freedom and democracy" is selectively applied, however. Here's a quote directly from the BNP's site-
"BNP councillors will lobby vigorously for local British people to be given priority on the housing waiting list - before bogus 'asylum seekers' and other newcomers. We shouldn't house outsiders while our own people have to sleep rough."
The same applies to jobs as well, and don't you just love the use of those crucial phrases "local" and "Newcomer"? In other words, your democratic rights might be altered, but forget it being for the better if you aren't white.

That's a thread all to itself as far as asylum seekers are concerned. Start one, if you feel like being masochistic. Meanwhile, when you're talking about an immigrant community in Britain that numbers in millions, those schemes suddenly don't look so generous.
The BNP's housing policy is founded on getting millions of people from ethnic minority backgrounds out of Britain. These plans look no more credible than Hitler's policy to rehome Europe's jews in Palestine advocated in the 1930's.

Well we all want a decent NHS, but not at the expense of being an isolated state. We don't have the Empire any more.

Here's one of my favourite proposed BNP laws, from their website.
"The families of anti-white racist thugs should face eviction. "
Great concept. Punish them regardless of whether they've committed a crime or not. It's their fault for being a bunch of darkies anyway. Incidentally, there's no corresponding law for whites. Surprised?

Fab. An isolationist state. That makes Britain's involvement in WW2 an act of treachery, I suppose. All the fascists in the 1930's certainly thought so.

6)The crushing of the IRA and other terrorist groups, the termination of the Anglo-Irish agreement and the establishment of a devolved, non-sectarian parliament in Northern Ireland. |
Do you not see the irony of the BNP calling for the crushing of terrorist groups when it's senior executive is full of bombers and people linked with C18 (a terrorist group)? Plus the fact that the BNP has a raging horn for the Loyalist terrorist factions, choosing to ignore the fact that they're a murderous bunch of drug dealers? Hey! As long as they're just killing bog-trotters they're just a loveable bunch of scamps, right?
The IRA is at ceasefire. Do you honestly think the above suggestion will work? I don't. Contrary to what the BNP suggests, I think there's no simple solution to the Ulster question, and any measures will take generations to have any degree of success. I'd rate the Anglo-Irish process as the best shot, however.
When you're dealing with the BNP, you're dealing with a party that will consistently seize upon any "trendy" issues of controversy and leap enthusiastically upon the bandwagon. Their central, racist agenda is the constant however. That's why any non-racist supporting them is a fool.
