I sit on the fence as in the fact that people are voting for them because its a reaction to things that are of consern that the major partys are not addressing. theres a reason why the BNP are doing well and people must be blind if they cant see it. I think people live in there own little circles and dont meet diffrent sectors of society so they dont see whats going on elswhere.
I’m sitting on the fence as I dont vote & I dont want a say as I try to live outside of society. I dont want anyone ruling over me I’m a green anarchist, I think rasism stinks but I also hate Political corectness. it causes more problems than its suposed to stop its descusting if you ask me.
I sit on the fence because I want to see how this pans out & what the BNP actualy do. If like Griffin has promiced he digs up the mass of corruption that has gone on with back handers, sell offs & share fixing. If he actualy gets some of these corupt politicions into court then I’ll say fair play.
I dont think its going to be christal night in Bradford & Oldham I’d like to see some inteligent debate on the subject not just the old ‘fuckin facists’ the BNP arnt exacly the NSDAP there deffo far right and have racist tendencys but I’m a fence sitter with polotics full stop.
I vote Techno Party, ATWA & Freedom.
Good response.
I think the BNP have been successful because they have capitalised on the failings of Labour. New Labour sold their socialist soul to Thatcherism and abandoned it’s working class supporters. The BNP then infiltrated working class areas, and using it’s very clever campaign techniques convinced people that the reason behind both economic and social inequality was because of immigrants, rather than the actual reason: free market fundamentalism, capitalism, power and wealth distribution and Maggie fucking Thatcher.
I live in an area in which the vocal majority are right-wing if not far-right, and I understand the mentality behind their tendencies. However it still makes no logical sense. The media doesn’t help, papers like the Mail and the Sun stir up so much Islamophobia and as we know people tend to look past the actual facts. I’m heard the economic crisis blamed on Muslims.
Political correctness is a bit of a non-issue to be honest. It’s a phrase coined by the media. There is very little legislation that actually limits what people can or cannot say, with the exception of the Inciting Racial Hatred charge, which is relevant to promoting violence or infringeing on another’s right as a human on the basis of ethnicity or religion. It doesn’t mean we can’t call a blackboard a blackboard, or critisice Islam, or that a “manhole” is sexist by law – that shit is lifted right out the Daily Mail.
As for Griffin exposing corruption and fixing, this is obviously a good thing, however I wish it wasn’t exposed by the BNP leader. If he is sucessful (which I somehow doubt) then it will create more support for the BNP. People will start thinking they are a voice for fairness which is irony at it’s most obvious.
And I disagree with your last point. The BNP are pretty much the NSDAP. They are nationalist socialists. People think of the NSDAP as always being openly fascist dictators, however they weren’t. They were democratically elected. They did not start their eleciton campaign with “excecute all Jewish people” or “Ayran race is superior”, they won the campaign through arguing socialist values for German people (it was previously the German Worker’s Party!). This is exactly what the BNP is promoting right now, obviously more relevant to the current climate. If the BNP got into power then the true face will be shown, just as the true face of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party was shown. It doesn’t happen overnight.
