Answer 1

I'm not going to e-mail you, I'll just stick to this forum.

We are a democracy. You have the right to vote for whoever you want. And if you are unhappy with this government, you should certainly not vote Labour. Not voting Labour doesn't make you a racist.

But the BNP? This is an organisation with only one long term objective - a Britain populated by whites only. It is a racist party with a racist agenda. If you vote for them you are endorsing the views of racists, holocaust denyers and Nazis. If you vote for the BNP knowing that, you can't be surprised when people think you support racist policies.

At present they are playing down their racist agenda in a bid to win support but don't be fooled.

Here's some examples of how their leaders enjoy free speech.

NICK GRIFFIN, 47, married, four children. Cambridge law graduate. Attended his first National Front meeting aged 15. Became NF vice-chairman. Joined BNP in 1995

Received nine-month suspended prison sentence at Harrow Crown Court in May 1998 for inciting racial hatred in his magazine, The Rune. Elected leader of BNP in 1999

ON RACE “Without the White race, nothing matters. [Other right-wing parties] believe that the answer to the race question is integration and a futile attempt to create “Black Britons”, while we affirm that non-Whites have no place here at all and will not rest until every last one has left our land”

ON THE HOLOCAUST “The ‘extermination’ tale is a mixture of Allied wartime propaganda, extremely profitable lie and latter witch-hysteria”

ON POWER “When the crunch comes, power is the product of force and will, not of rational debate. We have to have a body of trained young men capable of defending our organisation. If people come to crack our heads we will break theirs”

MARK COLLETT

AGED 26, single, educated at Loughborough Grammar School and Leeds University, graduate in business and economics, self-employed graphic designer. Former chairman of the Young BNP, now the party’s director of publicity.

ON WINSTON CHURCHILL “Churchill was a f****** c*** who led us into a pointless war with other whites standing up for their race.”

ON THE PRINCE OF WALES “He’s a f****** traitor. Did you hear him say we needed more mosques in this country? All Muslims are anti-British terrorists.”

ON WHETHER BRITISH-BORN BLACKS ARE BRITISH “Just because a dog is brought up in a stable doesn’t make him a horse.”

ON THE ROYAL FAMILY “The Royals have betrayed their people. When we’re in power they’ll be wiped out and we’ll get some Germans to rule properly.”

ON AIDS A “friendly disease because blacks, drug users and gays have it.”

ON JEWS “There’s not a European country the Jews haven’t been thrown out of. When it happens that many times, it’s not just persecution. There’s no smoke without fire.”

ON ADOLF HITLER “Hitler will live forever; and maybe I will.”

Still want to support this horrid pair?

The BNP is the front for groups who commit acts of violence and arson against non-white families. They appeal to the frustrated and stupid. But make no mistake, vote for BNP and you are voting for measures against blacks and Asians which will match those taken by the Nazis against Jews in the years before World War 2. Measures which Griffin, incidentally, denies ever took place.

Answer 2

Mr Sceptic and PhilipL have put it better than everyone else. You can't blame all your problems on immigrants, which the BNP is attempting to do. You are entitled to vote for them, but it's a wasted vote in my opinion. I for one won't be voting for them - I'd rather spend the rest of my life in Guantamamo Bay than pledge allegiance to that bunch of scumbags.

By the way, the NHS would collapse if there was no immigrant labour. Think about it!

Answer 3

of course you can say you will vote BNP, you have the freedom to say it. And others have the freedom to tell you that you are racist because you will vote for the BNP.

Of course, remember that your children will be taught at school that the Holocaust didn´t happen ... if the BNP win

remember, if you have a daughter she won´t be allowed to work, and probably won´t be allowed to attend university...because that is the long term plan of Griffiths and his ilk!

what do you mean you didn´t understand that from the BNP Manifesto?

Do you really want the counrty run by people like that who deny the Holocaust and idolize Hitler, responsible for a hundred MILLION deaths ?

As far as most people are concerned a vote for the BNP is a vote for nazism, thuggary, and of course, racism.

But you still have th freedom to waste your vote as you see fit (because without a civil war they will NEVER EVER get elected!) and of course you have the freedom to say you will vote for racism, nazism, and thugs.

I willl defend to the death your right to say that, then I will fight to the death to keep the BNP from power...

happy to help

Philip

Answer 4

No freedom of speech exists nor ever did. You can say what you like but you may be procescuted for saying it. But look on the bright side, in our history, saying the wrong this could get you excecuted in an 'orrible fashion. Eg blashemy, speaking out against royalty, Slagging of proddies if you were cathlic.
Even nagging wifes are aloud these days, In the old days they used to get the ducking stool, Arrrrrr the good old days.

Answer 5

Our civil liberties have been gradually taken away. All of this stems from Sep' 11th 2001 and the bombings in London known as 7/7. The politicians along with the media have fed us all a pack of lies on the "war on terror". We had the IRA long before Al Quiada and not once in UK history did we attack the Republic of Ireland or attack the funding of the IRA which mainly came from the USA. The "war on Terror" is nothing more than a smokescreen to attract our attention away from the reality of the conflicts in the middle east. Which is oil. The moment you demonstrate over this you are filmed and recorded by the security services. You may even be told you are not allowed to demonstrate. For further reference visit Mark Thomas the comedian and political activists web site or read up on anything by award winning journalist John Pilger and also Mark Curtis. Also to download for free on certain sites is the film Taking Liberties shown on C4 and another film more underground for the truth is ZEITGEIST.

Answer 6

Is it not their freedom of speech to ask such things? The prejudice against you when you say you're going to vote BNP is that you are a fascist racist, or if you vote tory that you're rich and public school educated - true or not that is what you're going to have to deal with. Prejudice is never going to go away.

Answer 7

Your family situation has nothing to do with you being racist, but voting BNP does. You have freedom of speech but so does everyone else.

Bexs, firstly Charles Kennedy is no longer the Lib Dem leader, and do your research on MRSA, a high proportion of us have the virus up our noses, it's a lot more complicated than someone washing their hands.

Answer 8

It may relate to the fact that the BNP party itself is mainly populated by racist individuals who publically deny the claim but behind closed doors spout extremly racist comments. this has been time and again proven by hidden cameras recording such actions. Examples are party member Stewart Williams saying he wanted to "blow up" Bradford's mosques, and council candidate Dave Midgley admitting that he pushed dog faeces through the letterbox of an Asian takeaway. It also supports "a massively-funded and permanent programme… to eradicate, by voluntary resettlement to their lands of racial origin, non-white ethnic minorities living in Britain". A pretty racist action in that most white individuals in Britain and a lot of non white individuals have been here for so many generations that their origins are not documented anyway.

They are attempting populist policy in order to attempt to draw those who have become disenfranchised with mainstream politics in but at their core they are still the party they were created to be with a strong racist foundation. That is probably why there were such comments when you stated your support for them.

Answer 9

There has never been freedom of speach in this country. Libal and slander laws restrict what we can write and say.

I dont think writing you are going to vote bnp makes you a racist. You have your own reasons for voting.

I think we should be able to say what ever we want.

Answer 10

It's because of the total moral decline in society. The government has tried to replace the morals taught to children by the Church, with laws against just about everything. Of course, they will never succeed because they do not resolve the real issues which is a person's sense of morality. If there is no sense of morality, then anything goes, and we will be locking people up until hell freezes over. The Gay lobby see the undermining of the Church as crucial to their acceptance into society, the Church's refusal to let Gays be "Married" in Church or for Gays to adopt children from Catholic adoption agencies, has put them on a collision course and it is Blair and his government that have bent over backward to the whim of the Gay lobby. In such ways our freedom of speech is muted and our moral decline will continue.
