The IQ test is an arbitrary way to measure a certain kind of intelligence. An IQ of 191 doesn't guarantee that you could beat Kasparov at chess: some people are good at chess, but bad at poker; for others it's the reverse. If that weren't so, politics would be defined by intelligence with one political party full of geniuses and another full of morons!

In the same way, intelligence doesn't determine how "nice" a person is. The BNP's politics might well make life worse for the non-natives (by reducing their chances of employment, say), but this might actually make things slighly better for white natives (by giving them a corresponding increase in their job prospects)... if they could live with such an unfair and corrupt system.

So, in a nutshell, it's quite possible for someone to score highly on an IQ test, but have a childish maliciousness about them which makes them want to vote for a racist party.

thanks for confirming what I said:D

Quite agree with these posts. This government is doing nothing about illegal immigrants and our courts are more concerned about their human rights and the human rights of convicted prisoners than they are of the poor victims.

Time we changed course and stopped grovelling to offenders. If they break the law and are immigrants illegal or otherwise who can be deported then its time that was happening. We are far too soft on criminals and forget about the plight of victims.
