Do you think the British National Party is fundamentally racist?

Question

I was a candidate for the BNP in the local elections.

Ed, I am aware of the ideaology of the BNP, I am simply asking the question do the general public think that they are racist.

Answer 1

Yes.

And their leader, Nick Griffin tells us so:

"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."

I trust that you discovered how unpopular your brand of fascism is, at the local election.

Answer 2

Oh dear. Are you still bitter about losing in the local elections?
Your turn out shows that the British public does not care about your policies. The best thing you can do is leave the BNP and encourage others to do so.

Answer 3

Is the Pope a Catholic?
Do bears poo in the woods?

I do , however believe that the existence of the BNP is good for the country on the basis that it scares the main parties into action.

Answer 4

Yes

Billybonzobones - you clearly no nothing about the leadership of the BNP if you do not think they are racist. I suggest you do some research on the past allegiances of Mr Griffin et al and then reconsider your answer...

Answer 5

No, I think they have strong values and views on how the country should be! Some are a little extreme but the media are the BNP's worst enemy and appear to try their best to make them look bad. I'm not racist but have been the victim of anti white racism several times in the country my grandfathers fought a war to keep.

Answer 6

Honestly, the bnp = Totalitarian regime.

Answer 7

Of course they are racist, shame on you for standing for them without being clear on this. Unless you're being disingenuous. Of course, a true BNP supporter wouldn't understand words of more than three syllables - it means pretending not to understand something when in fact you do.

Answer 8

it may have been once upon a time. i believe ALL the parties have been racist. IT is just that the main parties ARE conducting there RACE hate towards white working brits and that suits the liberal agenda.

Answer 9

My perception is that they try to produce an intellectual argument of defending the indigenous culture which does appeal to some. However, their philosophy is simplistic, ill-conceived and fundamentally racist.

Answer 10

Yes.

The recent Guardian article giving details of the leaders talk to US racists showed very clearly what they are thinking of. In one respect they have clearly identified the consequences of peak oil/climate change, but they then want to use the resultant economic disruption as an excuse to attack minority ethnic/religious groups.
