Icecreammaker,

Just because you don't understand the basic construct of a humorous punchline used at the end of a serious point, nor the substance of that point, which is that democratic means are more effective (i.e he is advocating the use of democratic means) That doesn't mean that the irony isn't there.

The irony (as you clearly need it spelled out to you) is that he quips about duffing them up in the street while making a serious point about keeping faith with the democratic system, while the BNP on the other hand pay lip servie to democracy but actually go round duffing people up in the street.

You see?

No?

Its ok I don't expect you to.

Vigilantism is what the BNP do when they round up a posse to picket a Paediatricians house in Portsmouth.


Cos you know ... apparently we need to be wary of paediatricians ...


So there's two words the BNP don't understand ...

... oh I forgot ... and democracy ...
