Having rubbed shoulders with the "skinheads" of my youth, who are now, undoubtably, the rank and file of the BNP, I would stay clear.

Lizzie for pm! 
I agree the situation has gone to far, but the day bnp get into power will be the day its time for me to leave. If they are not good enough for the Queen(she banned a bnp member from attending a function at Buck house)then they aint good enough for me. But i suspect prince Phillip will invite them in the back door for a swift half. Silly old bugger.

I`ve oft wondered if I might be on the list for being "sent back" if the BNP get their feet under the political table: being of Icelandic/Danish descent I am (probably) way-too "foreign" for their concept of Britishness....even though I`m a loyal, honest and very-proud British citizen.
That`s the trouble with setting frameworks around notions of Nationhood: just whom gets the 'right'?

That is the amazing thing about the so called "British" tag Debs.  As you no doubt know, the Germanic tribes, otherwise known as the barbarians, such as Vandals, Goths and Huns, gradually moved south, south west, and south east, across Europe from their lands north of the Rhine, and gradually took over the military operations of the Romans as mercenaries.  Then after 400 AD they then rapidly occupied the lands vacated by the outgoing Romans.  No doubt, with the Vikings and other nordic people mixed with the ancient Brit, Roman and Germanic blood / genes to eventually further be intergrated with the Gauls or later French.  Of course originally all these "tribes" came out of Africa!!

Being British is a way of life, a culture, not a particular crede or colour of people, although it was white Christian for a little while!!  

BNP please note these facts you ignorant, stupid, racist and evil individuals!!
I advise you to go to Auachwitz to see where your evil can lead us all!

Ah the wonders of democracy 

And the problems with it.

Seems democracy in the UK is only so if it follows the majority perception.

If the BNP get seats or a % increase in votes in the UK it would suggest to me that the Great British People have some support for them. Dont think its very "Politically Correct" we stereo type the BNP or potential voters these days to thugs in skinheads and Doc Martins. Similarly i dont think we should be calling them stupid and ignorant en mass.

I do have a level of suppport for them but that said i wont be voting for them - although if they had decent economic policy i would think carefully.....

...and in answer to the thread question..."how well will they do"

I thnk they will do better than ever before and take a few surprise seats. Why ? Because Britain in pig sick of the state of the nation with illegal immigration.

Why Not - well society tells us we need to embrace all for a start 

I think the feeling at grass roots - in the UK is that more and more peole would considor voting for them - i think whilst they have dramatic shortfallings there a more " credible" party than they were.

Even on here theres 3/4 replies to this thread that indicates some good oofers are at least considoring voting for them.

It doesnt make them bad people  And i personally have never carried a baseball bat, shaved my hair, wore Doc Martins, Assualted anyone, been in trouble with the police for beating up ethnic women with small children.

What i do have is a typical married with children homelife, mortgage, skilled job and degree ( in Politics)background.

I think Lizzie, the BNP and there voters have moved on since the 1980`s 

Doesnt make anyone right or wrong, just think they may surprise a few come the elections.
