Why I am voting BNP.

[Croydon Bob]

In many cases the councillor did not stand for re-election and the new candidate was not elected.

They didn't stand for various reasons, including convictions for various crimes mainly violent, failing to turn up at a single council meeting, and being expelled from the BNP for being the wrong sort of fascist. They rarely get re-elected once people see how crap they are.

I'm not British of course,but the BNP simply seems to be The National Front with a name change.

And there are 2 BNP Members of the European Parliament.

I was going to say "Fuck me!" Them I remembered 'Pauline Hanson's One Nation:

One Nation is a far-right and nationalist political party in Australia. It gained 22 percent of the vote translating to 11 of 89 seats in Queensland's unicameral legislative assembly at the 1998 state election and made major inroads into the vote of the existing parties. Federally, the party peaked at the 1998 election on 9 percent but progressively lost ground at the 2001 and 2004 elections.

Interesting analysis of the BNP's performance in the recent elections.

The BNP seems to be in trouble again. Oh dear.

Today's court action stems from a ruling that the BNP constitution breached discrimination laws because of a clause banning non-white members.

The constitution underwent revision, but in March Judge Paul Collins ruled at the Central London County Court that the new version was indirectly discriminatory against those of mixed-race, because it required party applicants to oppose "any form of integration or assimilation of... the indigenous British".
