Also.. I noticed Griffin never said nuffink about them ginger tossers!! Why is he so hateful of the blacks when there are freckle-faced carrot topped scots teeming all over the place?! I think we need to wait till summer, and then plant mini gas chambers with bottles of suntan lotion in them near all major attractions!!!
This is the atrocity I'm talking about!!!

"I hate Britain, and I want to move to Spain in the next couple of years, ‘cos our country’s not England anymore. "
Made me lol because parts of Spain are already unfortunately invaded by the worst people our country has to offer. She should feel right at home

Hieronymus Bosch or a Bosch electric sander?
I don’t know them, I’ll just put the second one.

It definitely did more damage than good. That was always going to be the case but still there are idiots protesting outside the BBC. Why? It's quite obvious that the few that did vote for him knew nothing about what he really stands for, and maybe just agree on the border control points or something like that. Now that he's been exposed for what he is, maybe these idiots won't vote for the twat

He should be given every opportunity to speak. That way the public can see for themselves what an idiot the man is.

Watched it. Think there is a danger that the people who voted for him could have viewed the show as a group attack on him. Everyone was lining up to have a pop at him as opposed to questioning / highlighting his views and exposing him that way.
Think a 30 minute interview one on one with someone like Paxman would have done a better job.

The bit where he joked about wearing a white pointed hat, didn't just show where his thoughts lie, it showed that he isn't trained up like the other mainstream parties... and that is worth taking note of, and also they all seemed to have searched wikipedia before they went on there, and it was just a show for attacking him, with a different question put on the end... not to show him for the racist he is, but more I feel to defer their awful policies.
Though I must say he did himself a lot of damage.
I agree that immigration is in freefall here, but there are a lot of lazy 'english' people here, that we're paying far more for than some hardworking people who do the jobs that half of us bastards wouldn't even do due to being too well recompensed by the system.
If an American doctor or an African footballer wanted to come and live here, we'd let them in... whats the difference?
- Its just a shame that this post wasn't addressed at all on QT and it was basically a witch hunt wank fest.gjd

People in areas such as Blackburn and Burnley (sorry if anyone is from there I really am lol!) do know what they are doing when the vote for him.
I was pretty disapointed that there wasnt any real good questions, the ones to really catch him out and make a fool of himself, as half the time it was just the normal witch hunt questions

In that programme after Question Time..
Alan Davies made clearer, more direct points in 90 secs than the whole QT panel did in 60 mins. No '-isms', no '-cations', no abstractions, no party squabbles playing into Griffins hands. They should've let him speak for 45 mins and hang himself with his own words instead of throwing insults that he can laugh off, missed opportunity

Saying that Spain is being invaded by the worse people our country has to offer is just as much living up to a stereotype as the BNP saying no 'foreigners' in the UK

I think if anything it will give the main political parties a kick up the arse to drop this crazy notion that immigration concerns are married to racism, and that the vast majority of people in this democracy want something done about our open borders.
Hopefully the show has crystalised for them that the only way they can stop disillusioned people float-voting for the BNP is to have some clear and compelling policies to address this issue for the majority.
I'm not saying I agree that immigration needs to be shut down, but I am saying that in a democracy, the majority rules and that's a big issue for the majority, and therefore why the are voting for BNP.
I'm not sure we do need do tackle immigration so much as we need to make the process rigorous, like Australia's or the US, and we need to communicate more clearly what's going on annually with our immigratees in order to alleviate the "monster under the bed" syndrome that spooks a large percentage of the population.
The really complicated one though is the fear of Islam, and I think that's the monster under the bed that will probably remain the BNP's greatest political advantage over the other parties. They can stir up fear with that in ways that the main parties can't address at all without a hardline re-assertion of Christian values enforced by by British law.
- The fearful say "Our population is growing like crazy', but the world's population is doing that...Orbit
- We can't expect to remain exclusively low population like some kind of Mark Warner holiday resort.Orbit
- Not without becoming isolated from the realities of the world North Korea, or imposing birth limits like China.Orbit

It turned into playground name-calling last night, I turned off after 15 mins.

As someone who grew up in Blackburn and now lives in Ealing in London, one of the most diverse places in the country, I guess I have 3 points:
1. One is that anyone who votes BNP probably doesn't watch question time. Most of the audience of QT wouldn't be people he would naturally appeal to I would of thought. So damage is all relative. I have people in my extended family who voted BNP, and they thought he came across well.
2. If that show had been put on in Blackburn, Leeds, Burnley, Preston, Bradford, there would of been a completely different feel to the show. Doesnt get much more diverse than west London.
3. The last point is really to echo orbit above me. Whether I like it or not or people who dont like Griffin like it or not. The places I grew up have changed massively. I went so school in Blackburn in the early 80's and it was 95% white working/middle class. Now its 50:50 Asian to White. My parents can genuinely remember the first black person who moved to Preston, a city for fucksake. Until the major parties recognize that huge parts of the UK are changing and people are fucked off, the BNP (which is an odious organisation) will always do well where I grew up.
I read an article in Time magasine about Detroit in the USA, about how there is white flight going on and its destroying the place. I seriously think that is happening all over the northwest and yorkshire. Almost no one I grew up with lives in the towns anymore, they've all fucked off to white only villages.
The village I grew up in is still regarded as one of Britains best, whatever that means and 10 years ago someone opened a curry house and it got fire bombed 3 times... This is a village where everyone is a teacher or a professional.
Theres a real issue out there and until a mainstream party confronts it the BNP will just grow and grow.
