When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.
When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.
When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.
When they came for the Jews,
I remained silent;
I wasn't a Jew.
When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out.

Hi....
NEVER... NEVER.... NEVER!!!
I don't fit into 'any' of the categories, that you have mentioned above and i am certainly saying NO!!
Although i can see why, their policies are so, imigration, EU etc.... i do not believe that a bunch of former racist skinhead thugs, could ever run this country!!
If BNP had their way, they would break away from the EU and try to go it alone....
Do you honestly think that Britain could be strong on its own, with America on one side, Europe on the other, no Empire or Commonwealth left and China on the rise?
If you think that, you are deluded....
'united we stand, divided we fall'!!!
A lot of their policies are just prejudice and hate, wrapped up in fancy wrapper!!
Another point, i would like to make....
If Scotland and Wales, want devolution, how could the BNP ever carry on?
It would have to become the ENP... English National Party.
As Scotland already has the SNP!?
Why dont you vote Green, it will do a lot better for you and your future generations, than 'ever' voting for the BNP!!

Not me. AK23566 above puts a good argument.
I currently live in a 'leafy' area but spent many years living in council estates in SE London(Southwark, Brixton, Woolwich, Lewisham all of which have an immigrant problem).
It is to be hoped that the problem can be solved by the mainstream parties.

I am neither racist nor colour prejudiced. I taught in a multi racial school for over 30 years, and fostered a coloured child.What I do feel is that the extremists of any persuasion are getting far too much publicity, and they are risking alienating the tolerant. I would not vote for the B.N.P. but I would vote for a political party which addressed the problems that immigration has caused in a sensible and constructive manner. I can`t say that the B.N.P. fulfills that criteria, nor do the other political parties.

I wouldn't. I grew up in working class Derry during the Troubles, and saw first hand the results of oppression.
So there goes your theory about only the middle class being against the BNP.

the only people who would vote BNP are those too stupid to realise that they are wasting their vote and their opportunity to do something positive.
The BNP are exploiting real fears about race, immigration and culture, but they also have policies that are homophobic, zenophobic and anti-semetic. Just like Hitler. Sadly, most BNP voters are too young,or too stupid, to understand the conseqences.
You will not change anything by operating outside the system. And the solutions to Britains problems will not be found by wasting your vote on a bunch of violent, illiterate, racist thugs.
By the way - I live in SE London in Penge - a area with high crime and high immigration.

I live in a working class area in a council flat, so that blows your theory out of the water.
I have only one rule on here - never, ever make assumptions. If you do, they are always wrong.

I'm tempted. Although I did in the local elections as a protest vote, I thought it was a wasted vote. Now!, if the apathy party stood then things could get different. How would the political machine move on if everyone voted for none of the above?.

Dont bother guessing....it appears you have already judged those that say 'no'. Are you really interested in why others say 'no' or is it a case of you being led blindly by the blind?
