Well, George, you believe what you believe and I am pretty certain that I cannot change that. I wish that I could, though.

I do find the existence of BNP as a party abhorrent, as its messages are mainly negative, being based on exclusion. But I also see it as useful - I 'd rather see what I am up against than have it permeate society invisibly.

I do wish, like Diane said so well, that BNP would stop hijacking the country's traditions for their own purposes. Things like that should be way above politics. I think we can help stop that, and I certainly intend to try.

Meanwhile, if you fall I'll pick you up, and if you're stranded I will give you a lift. In a singaround I will sing with you. I don't have to be your friend to do those things.

But if you move next door to me I'll sell my house, together with Mujeeb, my neighbour and friend.
