Lizzie Cornish,

You say that the "Racist label gets thrown at innocent people" for liking cricket and roast beff. Well, that's not true. The racist label gets thrown at the guilty people who blame or hate non-white or immigrant communities for irrational reasons. In fact your post reads like BNP propaganda..."The lefties want to lynch you for drinking warm beer" sort of twaddle.

Racism is normally a symptom of individual anger, insecurity and ignorance. The internal dialogue of the racist boils down to something like...

"I'm not happy in my life, my skin. I can't cope with change around me. I have anger, the causes of which I can't or won't face up to. I see people unlike me and my kind, whom I worry are doing better, getting more, having a happier life than me AND I HATE THEM FOR IT!"

This is the message of the vile racist/fascist BNP. It's all about channeling anger and fear. You see it when the mobs set out to lynch a paediatrician because they think they've found a paedophile.

Hitler did it..."Jews are bleeding you dry, Gypsies steal babies, homosexuals threaten the future of the pure race (along with disabled people), together these are the strange "They" and Them" who you must blame for all Germany's troubles. Get rid of "Them" and you will be OK, you are the chosen, you are the entitled, THEY are the problem."

And the BNP are absolutely no different.

Griffin, on video, addressing white supremacist groups in America, denying the holocaust as a jewish propoganda plot and explaining how he is reluctantly forced to avoid talking about their race and white supremacy agenda in the UK...until they get more power!

Andrew Brons (the other MEP) was convicted of racially abusing a black police officer shouting "death to the jews" amongst other things. He was also the former president of the National Front.

These people are morally bankrupt fear and hate mongers. They are a danger to humanity. They use a legal political process by telling lies about what their real agenda is, hiding behind the laws of free speech.

Now, I don't suggest denying them a platform but I do advocate a policy of "Never forget, never compromise and never surrender" in exposing these people for what they are and for legally frustrating any and all efforts they make to peddle their lies and misinformation.

By the way, we can get rid of the BNP's rallying cries if we would all lobby our MP's of all parties to be better governors. The BNP say;

"THEY are taking the council houses"...I say build more of them then!

"THEY are taking the school places"...I say build more schools!

"THEY are filling up the hospitals"...Last time I was in one, it was full of white drunks but nonetheless BUILD MORE OF THEM!!!

It ain't rocket science.
