Thread Name: BS: Legal action over BNP membership
Subject: RE: BS: Legal action over BNP membership
YES, Don T. This is the thing I've tried to highlight with working class acquaintances, who support the BNP purely because they believe that we should restrict immigration.

Restricting immmigration is but one thing, as all developed countries have restrictions on immigration. But these people simply don't realise the vast amount of other associated legislation the BNP propose to introduce.

In fact I get totally sick of these threads sometimes. I *know* the people the BNP target. They're NOT all die hard racists, many of them are simply people who are afraid their country is turning to shit and see no other option because no other fucker is listening to them. They THINK (because of years of propaganda) it's because 'foreign' people come here.

They aren't all skins and they aren't all illiterate Sam & chums, they're ordinary working class people who feel scared. THIS is what frightens ME! It would be wise for politicians and political commentators - and indeed the educated working classes who know better, to start genuinely heeding the anxieties of the less well educated masses, or start to suffer mass voting for the far-right.

If that happens, we're all totally and utterly fucked. It could happen like a domino effect. There are more than enough disaffected ordinary people out there, to make it happen in but a few short years...
