BNP Watch Shining a bright light on policies and conduct of the British National Party

Time to call bull-shit on the BNP's "green" manifesto pledge.

No jokes about skin-colour here — only Nazis. I'm not entirely sure what the punch-line of Nick's joke is, but can only suggest that he keeps his humour more "mainstream" (just as he's trying to make the BNP's politics seem more "mainstream") lest people mistake his patter for something else entirely.

It seems that BNP Watch has attracted somebody's attention:

Nick Griffin (nickgriffinBNP) is now following your tweets on Twitter

Of course, it might not be the Nick Griffin MEP... but consider us amused!

Dr Evan Harris, an MP for the Liberal Democrats, today expressed the opinion that banning members of the BNP from teaching is the wrong thing to do.

This article is a slight diversion from our usual look at the BNP. I'd like to draw attention to the words of Frederick Forsyth discussing patriotism.

Following on from my previous article about EHRC v BNP, it appears that the BNP might be about to change its membership policy.

This story from The Guardian:

One of the highest-profile members of the British National party has been banned from sitting on his local council for a month and censured by the Greater London authority after giving false details about murders on a video blog.

Behaviour like this is not going to win the trust of the voters, and it's not going to help you serve those who did vote for you either!

I'm sure that some BNP supporters will think of BNP Watch as "yet another anti-BNP website". I'd like to draw attention to the following quote taken from BBC Newsbeat's interview of Nick Griffin MEP:

Rosie from Hertfordshire said: 'I'd like to ask Nick Griffin how he sleeps at night knowing he stands for prejudice and overtly discriminate politics. The BNP is disgusting.'

I sleep very well and Rosie's entitled to her view and although I disagree with it I'd fight to the death to allow her to have those views.

Touché, Mr Griffin MEP!

Following in the footsteps of the police and armed forces, and after campaigns by trade unions, the government is going to investigate whether the BNP actually are racist.

"It is a conspiracy against me, my party and the indigenous people of this country." The court found him guilty of failing to provide a breath specimen.
