    If they want drastically lowered immigration levels, what other option is there for them besides the BNP? Most of them probably disagree with alot of the BNP's policies, they just want something done about immigration and realise that the BNP are the only party to offer this.

    they came first for the Communists, And I didn’t speak up because I wasnt a Communist; And then they came for the trade unionists, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist; And then they came for the Jews, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew; And then . . . they came for me . . . And by that time there was no one left to speak up."
    It is nice to see the value of your house going up'' Why ?
    Unless you are planning to sell up and not live anywhere, I can;t see the advantage.
    If you are planning to upsize the new house will cost more.
    If you are planning to downsize your new house will cost more than it should
    If you are trying to buy your first house its almost impossible.

    'It's easy to be complacent about principles when you think that someone else is "getting what they deserve" or suchlike, but as I always say to people who support all this giving up of civil liberties, "Would you be happy to trust the government and give up your liberties if it was run by the BNP?" - same idea here..
    '

    I am not happy to trust any govt that is removing civil liberties never mind the BNP!
    Good to know however, that the BNP are taking advantage of the human right legislation that they oppose :D

    And then they came for the BNP members but you didn't speak up because you weren't a BNP member.

    Its amazers me that people are getting worked up about whether their friend is a BNP supporter

    Why don't you worry about if your mate/bloke down the street is a kiddy fiddler or a suicide bomber....because at the end of the day they will have far more inpact on your life than someone who believes in the BNP

    (I wonder when a BNP member who was actually backed by the BNP to do it....blew themselves up on a bus)....or are my priorities wrong?
    If you find yourself in a fair fight, then you have failed to plan properly


    I've only ever been wrong once! and that was when I thought I was wrong but I was right

    I have written the strongest possible letter to Nick Griffen today requesting a full answer, and threatening to withdraw my membership fees from the affiliated Little Whippingham Nazi and Line Dancing Association. To imagine that my good name has been published next to all those other [STRIKE]racist thugs[/STRIKE].. er.. honoured members. This sort of thing won't happen when we have control of the country. Once we send mod: ironic diatribe has been removed as possible that the words could be taken seriously

    I don't know if it is still located there, but we lived not half a mile from an NF HO. (could be BNP now). They would drop leaflets in all the houses regularly. Most people took little notice. IIRC, one was about teen mums + benefits...can't remember exactly. I just recall reading ths strange leaflet....then noticing it was BNP.

    They always had a local candidate who got about 200 votes (Labour would get 15,000) .


    My brother and his partner lived on The Isle of Dogs during the 90's. She, black, he white....what a nightmare.
    As a 'mixed' couple, they had loads of grief.
    A BNP councillor got elected in the area at the time....won the seat based on rumours that locals couldn't get council houses on a new esate that was being built at the time.
    Got to the point that she couldn't walk home from work to the flat without feeling threatened.

    They moved soon after....not a nice experience.

    I hate TLAs.

    love the bnp im gonna run for them next year

    Good for you, just remember they will come after the mentaly challenged (like you)... after the immigrants, blacks, Jews, Muslims, Communists, invalids, etc.
    I used to have a signature but it disappeared and I just couldn't be bothered writing another, so please feel free to ignore this.
