""Plus, I think the BNP has gone too far down the road of constitutionality and ostensible respectability, for them to reinvent themselves as the kind of street fighting semi-terrorist mob that is classical fascism, and which succeeds where constitutionalism doesn't.""

I worry about that level of complacency when I see what appears to me to be the scum scraped off the BNP image in the name of vote gathering respectability, reappearing on the streets as the English Defence League.

Do you really think those 4000 vanished members just gave up?

I'm reminded of groups of men in brown shirts who did all the dirty work required by a Nazi Party gathering votes for an election.

"Plausible deniability"!
