People may or may not act on their beliefs, Don. Many do not act on their beliefs, they just talk. They blow off steam. When they have an anti-social belief, however, and DO act on it, then I judge them by their actions, not by their beliefs.

I understand and admire your liberal point of view but you don't seem to realise that the BNP are very, very nasty people indeed. They are not just a group who have views we disagree with; they are racist thugs. They DO act on their beliefs to the extent of pushing shit through letter boxes, firebombing mosques, beating up opponents on the street and hurling racial abuse. Many of their leading figures, including Nick Griffin, have convictions for incitement to racial hatred and racially motivated violence. MBSGeorge has chosen to align herself with this rabble. Cllr, who started the "BNP: What would you do?" thread is "quite conservative" (he is an elected councillor for the Conservative party). He feels "shocked and betrayed" because someone he regarded as a friend chose to stand as a BNP candidate.

It is the stated policy of the BNP to use British traditions to promote their cause. Folk music has enough trouble promoting its image to the public without that millstone around its neck. That is why people would feel uncomfortable sharing a session with George Dale.

She has to choose who her friends are.
