Subject: RE: BS: Legal action over BNP membership
A couple of posters seem to think Question Time is a radio programme. It isn't. It is a tv programme which is broadcast on Thursday nights at 22-35 and appears to attract a very respectable audience.

there is absolutely no chance that we could get the entire non-BNP membership to boycott it. Also, it's not strictly speaking a debating programme. Rather the format consists of questions, usually topical, from members of the audience, which are answered by each panel member in turn, with contributions usually being invited from the floor.

Debates do occur between panel members though, and anyone with Griffin's mouth problem could be forced into a few awkward corners, if he comes out with some of the drivel he has spouted in the past. I'm thinking of his "sink immigrant ships" line, or the one where he wanted to drop British born 'immigrants' out of a plane over Africa.

Success in routing the fat b..ard will therefore depend on who the BBC get for the rest of the panel. Just one skilled anti-fascist debater should be all it takes.
