From today's Guardian:

...One always suspected that there was more to fuel protest leader Andrew Spence than his selfless hatred of expensive petrol, so it comes as no surprise that the 39-year old Co Durham farmer has waded into party politics: he aims to stand in local elections as the BNP candidate. It is "the only party I have found," he says, "which has a commonsense approach to tackling issues which I believe matter to most people". The BNP's transport policy (fuel tax cut, speed cameras abolished, speed limits raised) is perhaps less well known than other sections of their manifesto...

Now some people of course might see that as a reason to think better of the BNP.   But I think rather more would see it as a reason to be a bit wary of the "pro-motorist" lobby. Even the end of it that doesn't go in for letter-bombs.

I'd hope to see sensible exemptions or modifications to meet the kind of worries people have come up with about the suggested Road Pricing scheme, and I think those are the kind of things that ought to be raised in the consultation pricess. The basic idea seems a good one to me.

...750,000 signatures are required to stop them introducing it. I don't know where that suggestion comes from. Someone's imagination, I'd suggest.
