Early on in this thread, or it may have been the one on the English Fair Front, I expressed a belief that the BNP is a bunch of Nazi survivalists. IE., they think that the human race is about to keel over under the strain of global warming, material shortages and over-population. From the Darwinian struggle which ensues, the 'master race' will emerge victorious and ready to enslave the 'inferior' races once more.

I've just found a piece of twaddle on the BNP website of which the last few paragraphs are below. The entire vomit can be seen at http://bnp.org.uk/category/peak-oil/apocalypse/ . Note in partiular the piece of BNPspeak in the final paragraph.

"A mass attempt by the populace to storm a food distribution depot close to the M62 might be dealt with by a few hundred armed infantrymen, but if the scene is multiplied across two hundred depots in twenty counties and a further hundred High Streets and a score of coastal ports as desperate, genuinely desperate fathers, older brothers and husbands try and grab whatever food, medicines, drugs, alcohol for their crying, malnourished offspring siblings and family members. What if the working class storming the food distribution depots are the brothers, sisters, cousins of the twenty-something infantrymen armed with SA80s? Will the well trained British squaddie really fire on his neighbours, friends and family?

"The cities will be dangerous places, conventional policing will be unable to contain the armed gangs who will control "their" areas. The wealthy can try and hide behind armoured gates and security systems, can establish their own armed gangs or buy protection from an armed gang. What of the rest of society? Even in today's oil booming consumerist society there are no go areas for unarmed police officers, housing schemes who are in thrall to the local "Mr. Big" often a pimp, a drug dealer and fence. If the police are not there to help, just who is going to look after the law abiding residents? Do we take the law into our own hands or do we all become easy prey to the armed gangs of pimps, drug barons and organised crime rings?

"The nights will of course be darker, the local councils will not be able to afford the cost of electricity to power street lamps. The nights will be quieter too, as millions of exhausts are silenced, lying rusting in driveways and gardens across the country. Fewer people will frequent the city centres, those that do risk assault, attack and even murder. Living in a city is a real health hazard in a world without oil.

"Conclusion

"A darker, hunger filled, more dangerous existence. That is one possible view of life after oil, but does it really have to be this bad? Could there be some upside, some silver lining on this particularly gloomy looking cloud?

"It might be apocalyptic but it might just be a time of opportunity for those that are aware, those that are prepared and those that can adapt. Don't have nightmares and see for yourself just what opportunities might open up."
