    Why I am voting BNP.

    Not really. But the Telegraph - yes, I know! - don't necessarily believe it - has come up with this.

    Pamphlets being distributed by the far right party to 29 million homes ahead of next month's poll European and council polls feature testimonies from five "typical Britons", giving their reasons for voting BNP.
    The endorsements from apparently respectable members of society – including a soldier, doctor, and young mother – reflect the party's attempt to appeal to mainstream voters.

    But far from depicting proud BNP supporters, the images are actually stock photos from online picture libraries that have been used by dozens of websites to promote everything from painkillers to caravans.

    On the leaflet, the elderly couple are quoted complaining that hard-working Britons are being "pushed to the back of the queue by bogus asylum seekers".

    But last night Italian photographer Luca Di Filippo confirmed that the people in the photo were actually his parents, who had only ever visited this country as tourists and do not share the views of the BNP.
    I can't believe politicians could possibly be so devious.

    Didn't they have a similar cock-up recently with a Spitfire picture, the marking on it designated it as a being part of a Polish Squadron though.

    It's fairly inevitable that a political party which has policies based on ignorance and hate will spend most of it's time making stupid mistakes.

    Although they have sporadic success in local elections they've often plummeted in popularity once one of their apes has been elected to a local council. Unfortunately they seem to have a small number of members who are slightly smarter than that. But then on the plus side the smarter ones often turn out to be gay or Jewish and 'have' to be expelled.

    Re: Why I am voting BNP.

    Unfortunately a few people i know are going to vote for the BNP, and immigration is one of the main reasons, without going into a rant against the BNP, I just wondered what people thought of the English Democrats Party and their views, not only on immigration, but the rest of their manifesto, and whether it would be worth trying to convert BNP supporters to English Democrats,

    From what I can see, the English Democrats are..

    anti EU and pro EFTA (like UKIP, I believe)

    against multiculturalism

    against immigration.

    I haven't read the whole site, but are they so different from the BNP?

    re English Democrats.

    We say mass immigration must be ended. We would deport illegal immigrants and all those who are extremists, terrorists and criminals.
    As far as I understand it, illegal immigrants are currently deported. And how exactly, and where to, are they going to deport extremists, terrorists and criminals?

    They sound like effing idiots to me.

    Re: Why I am voting BNP.

    And here is a little profile of one of their candidates.

    Garry Bushell – Parliamentary Candidate


    Born in 1955 in Woolwich, SE London, Garry is a newspaper columnist, TV Critic, Television presenter and author. Garry joined the English Democrats in July 2004. Garry has five children and has lived in the London Boroughs of Greenwich and Bexley. He stood for the English Democrats as a parliamentary candidates twice in 2005, once in Greenwich where he achieved a very credible 3.5% and a month later in South Staffordshire where he achieved 2.5% both performances from a standing start. Since 2005 Garry has assisted the English Democrats with TV appearances, and made two short films “Can we talk about what it is to be English?” and “Why we need an English Parliament”. Garry organises an annual Variety Show each year on St Georges Day (23 April) at the Circus Tavern in Purfleet, Essex

    Australia, it worked before

    Garry Bushell – Parliamentary Candidate
    If the voting slip was

    Garry Bushell - English Democrats
    Peter Sutcliffe - Conservative
    Ian Brady - Labour
    Rosemary West - Liberal Democrat
    Abu Hamza - BNP


    I still wouldn't vote for Bushell

    I have no objection in principle to an English Parliament with similar powers to the Scottish one (it would certainly resolve the West Lothian question). If the politicians are serious about major reform of Parliament, this could form the Lower House while the Upper House could become an elected UK Parliament, dealing with the issues which are not devolved to the English and Scottish Parliaments (and Welsh and N Irish Assemblies, which would need their powers upgrading to match the other two).

    A poster for them sprung up by my train station. So I read their manifesto. Yuk! They seem to want to opt out of part of the Geneva Convention, in order to reject asylum seekers.
