I am not a member of the BNP, or even a supporter, but there is much hypocrisy in the Anti Griffin campaign.

I wont forget when Mr Griffin appeared on BBC Question Time and was referred to as a Fascist sympathiser by a certain Mr Straw.

Mr Griffin retorted that his father had served in the RAF fighting Fascism in WW2, while Mr Straw's father had spent the war in jail, as a conscientious objector.

While I admire pacifist ideology, Mr Straw's comments were ill advised in the extreme.
The response is in line for "most cutting of the decade"



Rubbish. What either of thire fathers did odid not do in WW2 has no relavence.
