The British National Party (BNP) is a far-right political party with strong racist and fascist roots. Formed as a splinter group from the racist/fascist National Front by John Tyndall in 1982. Until 2009, when the BNP was challenged in the courts on grounds of racial discrimination, it restricted membership to only people of “Caucasian origin”. The BNP under Nick Griffin wasted 10s of thousands of pounds of their members fees on fighting their illegal whites only membership policy through the courts.
The BNP seeks to restore the overwhelmingly white ethnicity of Britain (what they call the indigenous population) that existed prior to 1948 through legal means, including “firm but voluntary and very expensive incentives for immigrants and their descendants to return home”: this policy would cost British tax payers billions and result in a shortage of trained workers. And the repeal of anti-discrimination legislation whilst adding more discriminating legislation to favour the “indigenous population”. It believes that there are significant differences between races. The party is ostracised by mainstream political parties in the UK for it’s racist and fascist ideologies.
In 2005, the last UK general election, the party received 0.7% of the popular vote but had no candidates elected to Parliament (currently it has never had an MP). In the 2006 English local elections the party doubled its number of seats in England. The BNP finished fifth in the 2008 London mayoral election with 5.2% of the popular vote and secured one of the London Assembly’s 25 seats. They won their first county council seats in 2009 together with two seats in the European Parliament. The party’s media profile has increased under its current leader Nick Griffin, a former national organiser of the racist National Front and failed business owner (has been declared bankrupt).
Despite a hard British recession, the British National Party have not fared well in recent by-elections in recent months, loosing their deposit each time. Indications are the BNP will not make the break through into mainstream politics in 2010 general election as they hope.
All eligible British voters should be aware if the BNP ever gained power, millions of law abiding British voters would lose the right to vote under the BNP’s National Service policy where ALL Britain’s over the age of 18 are required to serve a period of military service or LOOSE the right to vote! You MUST serve in the military to earn the right to vote under a BNP government, though you’d also gain the option to legally own an assault rifle as well!
For information about the BNP’s National Service commitment see the BNP General Election Manifesto 2005 (as of March 2010 there isn’t a BNP General Election Manifesto 2010).
BNP Leader Nick Griffin MEP
The current BNP leader Nick Griffin, (along with Paul Ballard) has been convicted in a British court of law (Harrow Crown Court: 27th April to 1st May 1998) for violating section 19 of the Public Order Act 1986, relating to incitement to racial hatred for his editorship of issue 12 of The Rune, published in 1996. Nick Griffin received a 9 month sentence, suspended for 2 years for the crime of inciting racial hatred.
During the trial he was accused of denying the holocaust and said:
I am well aware that the orthodox opinion is that six million Jews were gassed and cremated and turned into lampshades. Orthodox opinion also once held that the Earth was flat … I have reached the conclusion that the ‘extermination’ tale is a mixture of Allied wartime propaganda, extremely profitable lie, and latter witch-hysteria.
Nick Griffin confirmed he was a holocaust denier during the TV program (the Cook Report).
Nick Griffin, Cook Report, 1997
Closest Nick Griffin has come to changing his holocaust denying view was during question time in late 2009. His current views on the holocaust was not very clear. Does he believe millions of innocent Jewish people were murdered in Nazi death camps like Auswitch?
Nick Griffin -- Holocaust denial on Question Time, 2009
British National Party Conspiracy Theories
The BNP as a party believe in a multitude of political conspiracy theories from the absurd idea of a New World Order Conspiracy Theories including Common Purpose Conspiracy Theory through to Peak Oil Conspiracy Theories and Global Warming/Climate Change is a Hoax!!
The BNP also believe the three main political parties, Labour, Conservative and Liberal Democrats are in league together (one big political conspiracy) to maintain the status qua (keep the BNP out of power).
UKIP is the Eurosceptic Conservative front, Green Party is the Green front for the Labour Party and the Welsh Plaid Cymru Party is fake (I assume they mean it’s just the Tories under another name in Wales!).
The British National Party also believe the Labour Party allow in an uncontrolled number of immigrants to boost the Labour Party support: according to the BNP all immigrants vote Labour!

Jon if you had read the commenting policy you’d know I delete small pointless comments like you’ve been making a lot of today. I also delete comments that post full copyright articles.
Read the commenting policy and stick to the very basic rules and your comments won’t be deleted.
Note you have over 50 approved comments over the last 4 days, not exactly silencing you am I. Would take me all of two minutes to delete all your comments and ban the IPs you post from IF I wanted to silence you.
Quite happy for people like you to post on the BNP pages, you do more damage to the BNP cause than a room full of UAF campaigners.
BNP moderate my ass.

Not a threat David but a WAKE UP CALL aimed at Jelly Fish like you . Jelly Fish are good at Stinging People in order to blind them from the truth of Islam. Trouble is there are many people who are immune from your tactics and they are slowly waking up. To vote BNP is not a Weakness or indeed a crime. To vote BNP is to rid the Cancer of Islam. I know the truth hurts David but this really is your final wakeup call. The Bugle has sounded for the Election in May and this is the last chance we have in voting the Right party to save us all. We also need to get out of Europe too as this has been such a burden to our economy.
I used to address the new recruits, in the same way I have done to you just before they became Soldiers, why???? Because they think they knew everything about the Army and this Fine country. Just like them you know Jack Shit about what is on the horizon regarding Islam and the Islamification of this country. People think that the Islamification is a SLOW Process, they need to wake up fast! 20 years is all it has taken so far and mark my words, another 20 and Islam in this Country will have taken over! Young people think that people like me who have served for this country and also the Older Generation are out of touch with what is going on today, they are sooooo wrong! The only way to get through to people like you David is to hammer the truth HOME to you regarding Islam! Sorry to say this David but you are so IGNORENT to the ways of Islam and the Islamic Values of the NONE BELIVERS of ISLAM. I think that the only time you will believe that Islam is wrong is that when they sever the heads off the None Believers of Islam in this Country and Parade them round our Streets. Wake up David this is what will go on in 20 Years! I have seen this go on in the Middle East, trouble is the very people who let Islamic people into Britain had no idea just like you and many more don’t know what the REAL Islam is about! Enoch Powel Did, The River Of Blood Speech was based around these very acts which are going on in Muslim Cities and he knew full well this would happen here. Trouble is people like you were blind and they thought he was mad! Everything Enoch Powel has said about the Muslims and Islam is coming home to roost! David I know that you will never wake up to the truth of Islam until it hits you in the face, I just hope to God that the persons head that is paraded round the Streets is not the head of your Mother, Father, Sister, Brother and so on! David they do not give a shit who they dismember, they do it to their own as well as Stone to death their very own WOMEN & Children too!!!! It saddens me to say this David, I feel that there is just no hope in getting through to you about the Evilness of Islam, I have tried and others like me have tried too. Helping you is like a wasted VOTE Helping people like You is a WASTED VOTE TOO!!!! Read the Koran David I had to due to my life in the Army. After all I was over there for 2 years and I had to know their way of life. Why is it they do not read our Bible???? Double Standards David.

i will vote bnp, and you guys arguing that they wont get majority votes just goes to show that you are in fact worried they might, by spending so much time proving yourself.
the point is, no party in the government is even suggesting policies which will change things that are most on peoples mind.
BNP does have these policies, so in my opinion we could see an overwhelming number of votes for them.

The BNP policies and ideals are so easy to discredit and so ludicrous it’s child’s play to discredit them.
The same can’t be said for the Conservative polices or the Labour policies. So discrediting the main parties policies is a lot harder work.
That’s one of the reasons why I and probably others discredit them (it’s piss easy).
Also as a Labour voter, though I don’t want the Conservatives to win the next general election, I’d rather they win a seat than a BNP candidate and more importantly there’s an increasing tendency for voters to vote for fringe candidates in local elections where the voters believe they have no power (protest vote).
When the truth is it’s very important who your local and district councilors are, they are the people that implement government policy and fight for local issues.
If your councilors believe everything is one big conspiracy theory against the BNP, climate change is completely fake and Muslims are evil invaders, what sort of job will they do at local level!
We don’t want BNP idiots to have any power in Britain. It’s bad enough with the main party idiots without BNP candidates with wacky ideas having control over our lives.
Local councilors in my area (not BNP councilors BTW) thought it was OK to have a free family event at the end of a local festival that started at 7:30pm with an American “poet” who swore like a trooper in front of children and families, that act was followed by a woman talking about sexual acts and she touched herself! Not one councilor (or person) in the audience stood up to stop the show (I wasn’t there, as I certainly would have). They apparently realised the possible conflict 24 hours earlier and were so incompetent all they did was print a warning in a leaflet or letter (we never saw it) that was left on a table in a place no one went! They didn’t think to warn the staff that was welcoming families into the show to send them away or better yet cancel those two acts or move them to the very end of the night and have families leave early.
I live in a busy resort, the district council just pulled funding for a toilet (privately owned and not up to standard) that apparently a lot of people use in the summer months, with no contingency plan in place to keep visitors happy this summer! The areas relies on tourism, so that’s a smart decision, not!
My point is there are already idiots in power running our services, we don’t want the morons from the BNP messing things up as well! If they are BNP candidates, they must be mentally retarded or something as that’s the only possible reason I can think of for standing as a BNP candidate: intelligent people (or at least informed intelligent people) do not support the BNP.
It’s been proven on my site in the comments, the vast majority of the BNP supporters can’t even form a well thought out argument for pretty much anything beyond it’s all the immigrants fault!

How do the women who support the BNP or the men for that matter feel about the following BNP Policies from the 2007 Mini manifesto:
BNP Policies Against Women:
The BNP 2007 Mini Manifesto states the following as policy:
1. Implement a regressive taxation system that will re-establish women as dependents of their husbands.
2. Repeal protection of witnesses in rape cases and reform family law to benefit men.
3. Remove the right to choose to have an abortion.
Do you feel setting back womens rights is a good thing? can you really support a party that is willing to treat women as 2nd class citizens making them dependent on men?

I wrote the above Reasons to Vote British National Party : BNP 2010 General Election article.
It is based on the BNP Wikipedia entry with additions from the BNP manifestos and policy pages. I’m confident it’s an accurate article.
If you’d like to point out what parts of the article aren’t true, I’d be happy to debate those points with you.
For example it’s a fact the BNP is a “far-right political party” that was “Formed as a splinter group from the racist/fascist National Front by John Tyndall in 1982″ which gives the BNP “strong racist and fascist roots”. That’s all true, right?
Is it not true the BNP believe in a lot of conspiracy theories?
Or under a BNP government British voters would loose their right to vote if they refused to do military national service?
Or maybe you disagree that “The BNP under Nick Griffin wasted 10s of thousands of pounds of their members fees on fighting their illegal whites only membership policy through the courts”?
Please, point out what I got wrong?
Please supply facts (references would be nice), not just because you said so!

In answer to.. Please, point out what I got wrong? Firstly using wikapedia as a reference,!!!! contact your local BNP representative and talk to him/her and attend their meetings then I will debate with you on a level playing field.To answer one point you raised “mistake”(The BNP under Nick Griffin wasted 10s of thousands of pounds of their members fees on fighting their illegal whites only membership policy through the courts”?)The elite parties have no real opposition except the BNP, the 3 main parties all are in cohorts together.Labours quango of ECHR led by the overpaid Trevor Phillips are out to destroy the BNP by dragging the BNP through the court system,your inference that the members have “wasted their money is totally incorrect,the opposite is true,the ECHR have wasted millions of the TAXPAYERS money on trying to bankrupt a legal political party before a general election and when the BNP popularity is rising why did they choose now when they had 23 years in which to do so ,BNP base their policies on truth,knowledge and patriotism to the British people. I think everyone in this country would like to see a balance restored and that can only be achieved by having an effective opposition to the lefties/communists/new conservatives/ who have ruined our country over the last 40+years.

BNP Supporters couldn’t form a valid argument to save their life. Is that the best argument you can come up with, Wikipedia isn’t 100% reliable source of information, seriously???
Note the article was BASED on the BNP Wikipedia entry, not a copy of the BNP Wikipedia entry. I also confirmed what I wrote from places like BNP manifestos.
Please, feel free to point out what I got wrong? I’m quite happy to change things if I made an error in my research (prove me wrong).
BTW your argument I can’t debate about the BNP without first “contact your local BNP representative and talk to him/her and attend their meetings”. Well dumb argument (nothing new there from a BNP supporter) by the same argument you can’t discuss “lefties/communists/new conservatives/” as you haven’t met them all.
More double standards, the BNP supporter can discuss anything he/she wants about politics, but I can’t discuss the BNP without first jumping through a few retarded BNP hoops to qualify my arguments with drivel from a local BNP representative first.
Would discussing BNP policies with people like Michael Barnbrook (BNP candidate) and Roger Phillips (Wales BNP Organiser) count? Neither of them did a particularly good job arguing for the BNP cause in the comments on my site. Michael Barnbrook for example refused to discuss the BNP policy of military national service or loose your right to vote. Notice you won’t discuss it either, why is that, do you not want to have to own a gun and do military service to keep your vote?
At least from your last comment you confirm the BNP think pretty much everything is a conspiracy theory.
Regarding BNP members money wasted on court cases the BNP couldn’t possibly win, which is great as it means the BNP have no money to campaign at the general election.
The BNP membership policy of white’s only membership is illegal in this country.
That’s a fact (care to argue that fact?).
They didn’t have a cat in hells chance of winning that court case (which is why they lost) and so they wasted their members money fighting a case they could not win.
Not only that they showed that deep down the BNP have not changed, we live in a multicultural Britain, not pre 1950’s white Britain. The BNP now say they are no longer against hard working black British people, but fought in the court to deny them entry into the BNP as members. Why?
Add to this the money wasted not following the courts directions, something like £12,000 was wasted in one day because the BNP didn’t have the white’s only membership policy changed before the end of February 2010 and so the court had to give them more time which meant the BNP had to pay court costs.
£12,000 would be 24 BNP candidates deposit paid. On the BNP site under news they publish BNP fund raising events as awesome when they raise a few hundred quid. They could have had 24 more candidates at the next general election had the BNP organised a simple members vote a few weeks earlier than they did (they had months to organise it). I bet with the money they wasted on that one court case the BNP could have fielded another 100+ candidates at the general election instead of the 200 candidates they said thy will filed (there are 650 seats, the BNP will apparently contest only 200).
To Vote No To BNP (our resident BNP expert who I’m sure will read this :-)) do you know roughly how much the BNP wasted in total on that one court case?
I can not get over how politically and financially incompetent they are, it’s hilarious. The BNP do more damage to their own cause than every single UAF activist put together.
I look forward to Ys To BNP proving me wrong and arguing what parts of my article is not accurate/truthful. I won’t hold my breath though :-)

No worries Ys To BNP I understand you don’t have the skills to debate with me. It’s what I’ve come to expect from the average BNP supporter.
If you change your mind feel free to pick a political subject and say your bit.
Anyone seriously considering voting BNP, just note when the serious BNP supporters are offered the chance of reasoned debate on a forum thousands of people read every day they run and hide like scared little children who have been caught out telling porkies.
Quite pathetic really.
Could you imagine people like this trying to fight your corner at even local level, they crumble under minimum pressure.
Michael Barnbrook for example who is a BNP candidate (spoke to him via the comments here, appears to be a nice old man) and supposedly the BNP’s big sleaze buster (big important figure in the BNP regarding MP expenses) complained I was tiring him out by asking him to participate in debate here (no one forced him to comment here).

Pretty much similar to what you are saying Ys To BNP. You both refuse to debate. Why is that?
I’m not that into politics either, (check my very early comments from 6 months ago, I didn’t have a clue) I own about 100 web sites and this is my very first one about politics (have to admit I’m enjoying it).
I’m not some seasoned political commentator or anything who can easily wipe the floor with an unprepared politician, the likes of David Cameron, Gordon Brown, Nick Clegg etc… would wipe the floor with me in debate and I know it.
I’m just like the vast majority of middle Britain who have enough interest in politics to vote every time and care enough to get involved a little bit through this website (I’m not a member of any political groups for example).
To deal with the BNP supporters constantly commenting on my site I’ve had to learn a lot about the BNP over the last 6 months or so. Before that didn’t care to know anything beyond what I got from the media about the BNP (which is mostly true).

If you don’t plan to engage in reasoned debate stop posting comments on a politics site that’s here for reasoned debate.
Typical BNP supporter stupidity.
Just admit it, you can’t prove any of my arguments against the BNP as wrong.
When you learn anything beyond the classic BNP party line of it’s all the immigrants fault and everything is a big conspiracy, talk to me then.
Oh and had you read a bit more of my site you’d know I’m self employed, not unemployed like your average BNP supporter who can’t form a valid argument or keep down a job.
Speaking of jobs. Watched Newsnight the other night and there was a business owner from Lincolnshire on talking about why he employs foreign unskilled workers when there’s more than enough British born workers theoretically available to do the work.
The issues were.
1. The foreign workers who get off their back sides and travel hundreds of miles to work here are hard working. There are lazy people in places like Poland for example, but the lazy ones aren’t exactly going to travel all the way here to work picking vegetables all day for piece rates, just like lazy British people don’t travel abroad to find a job.
2. British workers aren’t willing to do that type of hard manual work for low wages. I disagree with this point, but then it’s not may argument it’s the Lincolnshire business owners argument. The sort of work is piece work, but because we have a national minimum wage if a worker slacks of they still earn the national minimum wage and so it costs the business owner more to hire lazy British workers. Again not may argument, but if this is the perception business owners have of British workers in that type of industry….
3. The current benefits system makes it hard for British workers to take these types of job. These are seasonal jobs that require a flexible work force. Basically the employer will hire a group of people to pick fruit or vegetables for a relatively short period of time (weeks to months) and it’s difficult for British people on JSA etc… to take short time work. No idea if this is all true, but it did make some sense. If this is true the government needs to make it easier for unemployed people to take on short term work.

David, it is a fact that Labour (and Tory) have handed our sovereignty over to Europe without a referendum.
It is a fact that they have flooded Britain with imigrants.
It is a fact that they have involved us in wars that have nothing to do with us.
It is a fact that unemployment and crime are both very high.
It is a fact that they have failed Britain, and the British people.
It is a fact that they have no idea what they are doing.
I don’t suppose the BNP will do any better, but by their very existence they have proven that this country is no longer a fair and democratic country, and they have proven that you and your site are not fair and democratic either.

I wouldn’t go quite as far as you put it, Labour/Tories have not handed our sovereignty over to Europe, but I do agree we should have had a referendum before any serious power is moved to Europe.
I wouldn’t say flooded with immigrants, but agree they have let way too many unskilled worker in. Also the controls on our borders were lacking, still not perfect, (student visas are still a BIG issue) but improving. The government should have put controls on immigration much sooner, they always seem to be a couple of steps behind what needs to be done.
I pretty much agree with the sentiments behind these points (copied below), even though they aren’t completely true: some MPs know what they are doing (national minimum wage is good for ordinary British people for example) and they haven’t completely failed Britain (we are one of the top countries for attracting foreign investment), but could and should do much better for us.
“It is a fact that unemployment and crime are both very high.
It is a fact that they have failed Britain, and the British people.
It is a fact that they have no idea what they are doing.”
I don’t understand what you mean by:
“I don’t suppose the BNP will do any better, but by their very existence they have proven that this country is no longer a fair and democratic country”
I agree the BNP wouldn’t do any better, I think they’d do much worse. I don’t understand how the existence of the BNP proves “that this country is no longer a fair and democratic country”? Unless you are saying the BNP aren’t fair or democratic? I’d agree with that if it’s your point.
I honestly don’t care what you or any BNP supporters think of me or my site.

You use comments gleaned from who knows where, without being able to cite primary sources and promulgate it as fact. Hearsay, and data from unreferenced material is not fact.

“Either way unreferenced material is worthless and cannot support any argument.”
I wouldn’t quite go that far since the comments are for discussion not just for copying and pasting facts/statistics from other sources. That being said I do agree with you generally, commenter’s should reference anything they post as fact if they want it to be believable.
The comment you responded to which parts do you think I should have provided references for?
About the only statistic I mentioned (kind of) was
“we are one of the top countries for attracting foreign investment”
And I have referenced this in other comments I’ve made and wrote an article on it http://www.45-year-old-millionaire.co.uk/britain-attracts-foreign-investors-and-entrepreneurs.html
“The report referred to is at http://www.prosperity.com/rankings.aspx Britain is ranked number 12 out of the 104 countries overall, which is pretty good IMO.”
Most of my comment was discussion and my opinion and didn’t require reference unless someone asked for one or disputed what I wrote.
Now the person I responded to (g.curtis) posted a list of “facts” with no referencing at all. g.curtis should have said IMO rather than fact as what he/she posted as facts are not facts, but opinion. Would be great if the odd BNP commenter would reference their sources, most spout a load of BS figures that make no sense at all.

NO.The BNP will never surrender to invasion unlike the perverse,failed policies of multiculturalism,extreme left liberalism and the incorporation of the eu charter on human rights incorporated into british law in 2002 by the traitors in the labour party.I don’t think the BNP can do any worse than the elitist parties,i think they could buy enough bother boots to kick the likes of david and his UAF pervs out of this country and still have change out of £840 bilion.I’m sure that won’t cause offence

Wow.
You still believe the crap on Global Warming.
If you can’t even tell the truth about AGM/CLIMATE CHANGE SCAM how can anybody trust what you say on any subject and especially the BNP.
Typical Ignorance. I blame New Labours Education system for the DUMBING DOWN of people like yourself.

So you take information from Wikipedia and make decisions about the BNP based upon what you have read on Wiki.
That’s all that needs to be said.
You have NO CREDIBILTY, and you shot yourself in the foot.
No wonder this country is in rapid decline. Idiots are allowed to put foreward their uninformed point-of-view as FACT.

Where do we get accurate British National Party facts from then? BNP website is filled with lies.
Already dealt with the Wikipedia argument at http://www.general-election-2010.co.uk/reasons-to-vote-british-national-party-bnp-2010-general-election.html/comment-page-31#comment-4822
If you’d care to list what you think I got wrong and why, I’m up for the debate.
You’ll not be the first BNP supporter to say I got the Reasons to Vote British National Party article all wrong and didn’t say why, saying I’m wrong does not make it true, you have to actually prove why I’m wrong :-)
Prove me wrong and I’ll change it as I want it to be an accurate article about the BNP (I don’t want to intentionally mislead potential voters).
