    No, let them vote BNP if they want. The only way to kill the BNP is to put them in the spotlight and watch Griffin spontaneously combust under his hair grease.

    By that statement you have already given them more oxygen than they deserve, and Rochdale has.

    Bit of a hill to climb (61.4% in 2005), but the "p-factor shows might have helped.

    I would be for the swiss approach, vote (even if you vote for no one) or be fined. No point in been here if you don't care how it is run.

    BNP goes way to far for me, but i wouldn't mind seeing what UKIP could do not that they even have enough MPs to take control, only about 21.
    Talking about BNP they came 4th in newcastle, with ~3,300 votes!
