An article from the Guardian. It contains a link to an abstract of the research paper discussed.

It seems that on average the BNP have the most stupid voters - or at least did in 2001.

Sounds like nothing much has changed.

Casting a casual eye around Facebook, I'd say the majority of their users wouldn't know which end of the crayon to use in a polling station.

The new edition of the Radio Times has announced that Bonnie Greer will be part of the panel 'fronting Nick Griffin, along with Jack Straw. The other two panellists have not yet been named.

BG is an interesting choice, in that she is a feminist, a Black American, and can be decidedly fiesty when she chooses. She is not going to take kindly to Griffin.

We may get a few fireworks after all.

Oh, yes, Fakebook. What's that? 1 million united against the BNP? Nearly 700,000 so far.

The BNP is losing support. Keep at it, Richard. Shove a candle up their collective arse and light it.

BBC news just announced BNP have been instructed by the Equality and Human Rights Authority to open their membership to all regardless of ethnic origin. Could be interesting!

Mrs.Duck "BBC news just announced BNP have been instructed by the Equality and Human Rights Authority to open their membership to all regardless of ethnic origin."

The BNP's response has been to put it to an EGM. Since they want to stay in business, they will doubtless agree. The question will then arise, what tactics will they adopt in order to continue the ban informally?

It probably won't happen, but I can't wait for 100,000 British Nationals of Asian and African origin to sign up and, in the interests of British Nationals everywhere, vote in a whole new set of policies.

I wonder what ideas for new policies folks on this site might wish to suggest.

My only idea so far is that the elected leader (Nick Griffin) be required to show BNP support annually for Gay Pride by leading the parade in a pink Mankini and leg warmers, surrounded by a crack team of transvestites.

He would then be sent on fact finding missions to the slums of Brazil, the Bronx, the shanty towns around johannesburg and the gaza strip where it would be his job to explain to the locals what issues he has spent his life supporting and why.

Beware: new members are not eligible for voting rights for 2 years (and still only get them if awarded) and in the meantime the BNP gets the additional subscriptions.

I haven't been able to access Mudcat for a couple of days, so apologies if someone has mentioned this already. However, the Justice Secretary, Peter Hain, is threatening the BBC with legal action if they go ahead with the programme. His grounds for doing so are that the BNP is not a legally constituted party.

Richard Bridge. "Beware: new members are not eligible for voting rights for 2 years (and still only get them if awarded) and in the meantime the BNP gets the additional subscriptions."

Thanks for pointing that one out, Richard. Griffin has been touting the fact that anyone can stand for leader after five years, as evidence of the BNP's democratic credentials. Looks like you can only attain full membership on Griffin's say so.

BTW., do you have any information over what consitutes an "activist" in their eyes ? Unlike any other party I've come across, "activist" is a distinct status within the BNP, and you have to be awarded that status before you can do any work for them. Activists represent about 25% of the membership, by the way. Do they represent some sort of party elite ?

Re., the question of non-white people joining the BNP. I have absolutely no doubt that the mekon and his mates will find some ruse to keep them out. Perhaps they'll pull a similar stunt to states in the American deep south, where they were legally obliged to allow black people to vote, under the US constitution. I'm not saying what that ruse was in case it gets back to the enemy. But sad to say, prior to Black civil rights it was very effective.

I note that the BNP has started to smear the two non-white known members of Thursday's "Question Time" panel - one as a "positive discriminee" and the other as a "Black re-writer of history".

I went to a lecture by Jonathon Porritt, the green activist, last night. A very good lecture it was too. During question time, the necessity of limiting world population came up. Porritt was in favour. After explaining why, he said something along the lines of, "You don't have to be a National Front or BNP nutter to believe that. I say that with some vehemence because the BNP took a quote of mine about population growth and pasted it on their website, saying that Jonathon Porritt agrees with the BNP.

"I BLOODY DO NOT!!!"

Needless to say he got a vigorous round of applause.

Jesus Christ Almighty.

At last the Meejah has caught on to what we have known for a couple of months.

The news today has featured, in EVERY bulletin, the story of the use by the BNP of the Spitfire, and Winston Churchill, to campaign for the Euro seats.

They also caught on to the fact that the Spit had a Polish pilot.

God, these guys are quick on the uptake, but only when four generals rub their noses in it.

If you or I booked into a back street hotel with Mrs Higgins at No. 27, it would be all over the papers in twenty minutes.

When they took the oily fat git to task over it, he had the nerve to say that, if Churchill was alive today, he'd be a BNP member.

And pigs might fly! (Hopefully the porker that runs the BNP will try, right off Beachy Head, where he can join the other Nazis who crashed there).
