Slightly off the beaten track for today’s post. The problem when people are either a) disillusioned by the main parties or b) do not vote at all is that smaller, less mainstream parties increase their share of the vote. The British National Party (BNP) actually got fewer votes in this EU election in the North West than in the last, but a higher share- blamed on less labour voters turning out at the polls.
Yesterday, the BNP was forced to admit non-whites to its membership- with Nick Griffin stating that he expected a trickle rather than a flood of applicants. Can’t imagine why he doesn’t think this change in the law will result in a huge rise in members... yes quite.
But thankfully- in case anyone had forgotten how nasty and thuggish the party actually is- the BNP forcefully ejected a Times Journalist from the meeting. He had, incidentally, been invited. Saved me a lot of time. Was going to have to write a post saying ‘Don’t be fooled by the BNP, they are still the same’ but now, I can end it hear.
So please vote, otherwise, like the journalist ejected from the meeting... many of us will be ejected off this island...
