Answer 1

The growing support for the NF and BNP is brought on by today's completely unbalanced media reports from all sources. Not all Muslims are terrorists, not all Jews are tight and not all whites are chavs and not all squaddies are thick ;-)

We only get to hear about Muslim men/women being detained and charged, never Christian or Catholics, Hindu's, Sikhs or Jews.... why is this?

The more the media incite this type of behaviour, the more the Muslim communities will retreat into their own circles causing more misunderstanding of what is fundamentally a very peaceful religion.

I grew up in a very multicultural environment and I never experienced the type of segregation being experienced today, all kids played with one another, white, black, Muslim, Hindus, there were never any problems... then again, probably easy to say that when you are white.

The BNP in my own view are no better than the terrorists they claim to want to protect us from and they prey on the votes of the fundamentally stupid.

Does anyone truly believe that the BNP would be capable of running the country in it's entirety. They take a very narrow view of British politics...

Now i think I've ranted for long enough!

Answer 2

Well, you could write about your older brother hating this assignment so history is repeating itself, but you will probably get a better grade if you look at the number of times the same people have been at war with each other, such as the two religions in Ireland or the Germans and the French. If you want something less well known, look at what happened in the Balkans down though the years ending most recently in the Bosnian-Serbian slaughter and the breaking up of Czechoslovakia where people don't even agree on what to call old slaughters.

Answer 3

I would hope that our government, no matter what party is in power would not let our country go down the road of Nazism or look the other way like Britain and America did in the 1930s.

Countries like France, Germany and Italy look to be heading in the direction with many right wing representatives in their respective parliaments.

To stop this happening in the UK the Government has to look at some of the policies that they have brought in that have made the white population so discontented that they vote for the BNP. It won't be too hard for them to work it out.

Europe has never learnt from the mistakes of the past, not just in recent times, but centuries before when the Crusaders went out take on the Infidels and further back in time with the Romans and Christians.

Answer 4

There is very little general support for the BNP and none for the NF, Muslims the Jews of the 21st century? I think you will find thats still the Jews. Jews were part of the culture and business life of the countries they were persecuted in as they had no country to call their own. Similar to some Palestinians who are still made to live in refugee camps, 50 years after being displaced, in some Arabic countries. Islam as a whole is a peaceful religion and not all Muslims condone the likes of Al Quaida. But the problem you seem to forsee would need the support of a lot of the countries population and to be honest in spite of the terror mongering by certain tabloid newspapers I could not see it happening

Answer 5

I think this is a serious analogy, you are right it could turn and may happen in the future, though having said that Hitler was extreme and was in a world that could not share information like we can now, prevention is the answer. I think if we lived in a country whereby people lived under our rules and beliefs and did not threaten our way of life we could ease alot of the heightened tensions we have now.

I am not saying that other religions or faiths should not be allowed, I am saying that we should not let religion be publicised in the way it is and thrusted down our necks as it is, religion should also not dictate policy, maybe the church and faiths have to much of a political voice, I am atheist but i realise that we are all different and do not all share the same views, and i do not criticise other cultures. I think maybe we have become to politically correct which currently causes battles to be fought in the media and in our daily lives... we never did it before so we should not be doing it now.. we are going way to far..Muslims should learn to be part of our culture and maybe the others would learn to understand them.

Answer 6

tbh matey with the way things are going i dont reckon we will be a british nation in the future i mean we are practically becoming outcasts in most of our society and its depressing the fact that we cannot voice opinion without some right wing human right or political *** gets in the way i mean all those rights in London with islamic extremist putting banners up saying burn all those who arent Islamic etc.. how are they getting away with that???

my advice is to watch V for Vendetta that explains alot about modern day society and its true to form...

I'm sick of the fact that people turn something said by someone into a racist remark even though it isn't its simply stating that others need to respect our rules and laws i mean most asylum seekers and other groups are trying to live their rules over here and thats out of order.. that would be like loads of uk people going to India and telling them to wear all our clothes aint going to happen is it....

Answer 7

I hope not. But if we keep giving in to every whim of these Muslims it could possible happen. The trouble is, Muslims don't want to intergrate. Second and third generation, and they still regard their father or grandfather's homeland as their first home, and the UK second. They look upon non Muslims as below them. But of course they enjoy the benifits they get in the UK!

Answer 8

Not as long as there are those like me, in support of integration...
Don't get me wrong, i think all this veil wearing is rubbish...
But I can understand those that come here...
Immigrants are offered a life here... women are given freedom of choice and people can really make the world their oyster.
HOWEVER
those that think the ethnic minorities are taking our jobs should look at home first... Look at the amount of white people on the dole, not bothering to get their backsides out of bed....
The system is there to be played by those who know how to do it, from any nationality...And the white population are more guilty than any other...
As far as I am concerned, it is down to the government for not integrating multitudes of nationalities, and thus, placing people in a suitable "area" ( their national pigeon hole) are promoting racism and therefore the BNP, NP are gaining power within local councils...

Answer 9

Who knows! When white people complain that they feel like second class citizens in their own country would have to mean that the situation would probably have to be similar to black people in South Africa where they have been S.H.I.T. on in their own country.

Answer 10

Lets hope not, sometimes I do think Its the white British who are treated as second class citizens and this is what causes racialism
