The Labour Party is a centre-left political party in the United Kingdom. Founded at the start of the 20th century, it has been seen since 1920 as the principal party of the Left in England, Scotland and Wales, but not Northern Ireland, where it has only recently begun to organise again. Labour first surpassed the Liberal Party in general elections during the early 1920s. Since then, the party has had several spells in government, at first in minority governments under Ramsay MacDonald in 1924 and 1929-1931, then as a junior partner in the wartime coalition from 1940-1945 and ultimately forming majority governments under Clement Attlee in 1945-1951 and under Harold Wilson in 1964-1970. Labour was in government again in 1974-1979, first under Wilson and then James Callaghan, though with a precarious and declining majority.
The Labour Party won a majority in the 1997 general election under the leadership of Tony Blair, its first general election victory since October 1974 and the first general election since 1970 in which it had exceeded 40% of the popular vote. The party’s large majority in the House of Commons was slightly reduced to 167 in the 2001 general election and more substantially reduced to 66 in 2005. Labour is the leading partner in the coalition Welsh government and the main opposition party in the Scottish Parliament. It has 13 members in the European Parliament and is also a member of the Socialist International. The party’s current leader is Prime Minister Gordon Brown.

their is a choice, one can either vote for nu-labour,
the party with the unelected “leader” and the party that has been instrumental in destroying democracy in Britain through its politicly correct dogma,
or one can vote for the conservative version of nu-labour, same policies, elected leader.
or you can vote for the only real alternative, the party that will give back to the British People the right to be heard in their own Homeland.

He is actually an Elected MP so you can;t exactly say he is an unelected leader.
Their was a leadership election with two candidates he won, so you can’t say unelected leader.

Thanks for your reply Sam. I beg to differ in my views I’m afraid.
For me it’s more like what other party could have destroyed the economy and wiped our
industry clean off the map creating unemployment levels the likes of which we’ve never seen
before (and the figures are higher than they’ll ever admit).
It’s not much good having a national minimum wage when there’s no work about anyway.
It’s not much good having a national minimum wage when it has to be propped up with housing
benefits, income support and reductions in NI contributions amongst other things either.
The national minimum wage is encouriging companies to pay just that – thus devaluing our
jobs. If a jobs worth doing, then shouldnt it be worth paying for properly and outright.
Current system generates more worthless jobs just to handle the admin for the benefits
mechanisms I’ve just mentioned. The entire setup is false Sam.
It’s not much good when you are at the start of a major recession (and we are at the start).
Unemployment is rife amongst the natives and the labour party opens the doors to millions
of foreigners and enforces companies to operate policies of positive discrimination towards
employing them.
You have to look at employment as a whole Sam, not just the NHS. I’m on about us as a
collective. The NHS is by no means immune either. Labour blows far more away in foreign
aid and supplying benefits directly to people in other countries than it deems fit to allocate the NHS.

UKIP in Chaos Over “Betrayal” Offer to Tories
http://bnp.org.uk/2009/12/ukip-in-chaos-over-%e2%80%9cbetrayal%e2%80%9d-offer-to-tories/
The fake UKIP party is in chaos today after its South East Candidates’ Association chairman, David Samuel, demanded a meeting with party leader Lord Pearson over the plan to sell-out that party’s membership in a secret deal with the Tories.
In addition, two UKIP MEPs have announced that the party faces a “wave of resignations” after news leaked that its leaders offered to disband the party and join the Tories behind everyone’s backs.
According to the email circular sent by Mr Samuel to all UKIP prospective parliamentary candidates last Saturday, entitled UKIP South East Candidates Association – Meeting Sat 5 December, tension is running high within that party over the secret sell-out deal.
“The revelation that our new party leader, Lord Pearson, with the blessing of Nigel Farage, had a few months ago made an offer to David Cameron that UKIP would stand down from the general election in return for a binding referendum on the Treaty/Constitution, has brought forth an entirely foreseeable torrent of reaction from PPCs in the South East,” Mr Samuel wrote.
“I have today emailed Malcom Pearson inviting him to attend and speak to and with us at our meeting next Saturday . . . I have no doubt that he will wish to take the earliest possible opportunity of meeting his PPCs in what is the strongest region in the country. As soon as I receive a reply I will let you know,” Mr Samuel wrote.

But all you need to do is to look at UKIP as the more acceptable face though, that’s the way the country see’s them.
The main element of the country don’t want repatriation, volutary or otherwise, the BNP has that as policy.
The main element of the country doesn’t want a total ban on immigration forever (the BNP does) UKIP say five years, the Tories say a fixed cap on the numbers.
UKIP get far better press coverage meaning as in the positive where as the BNP get more in the negative.
UKIP are better financied then the BNP, they have a Lord of the realm at the head, people (the average voter) doesn’t care about what happens in the EU parliment, they don’t get to see the YouTube videos, they read the papers and watch the news.
The internet coverage doesn’t hit every house in the country, so the older generation who are more likely to actually vote only see negative press on the BNP, so they are unlikely to vote for them.
And the kind of press they see is this; Richard Barnbrook and friends telling Non-Whites they can’t attend meetings, this one made the news papaers:
These are the types of stories the general public get to read in the papers not the kind of press the BNP want the general public to see.

Not to mention that UKIP already has a HIGHER vote share than the BNP, they have 13 MEPs to the BNPs 2 so that also shows you that they are seen as far more acceptable than the BNP as they already command a far bigger vote share than the BNP.
But for that matter the Green Party also beat the BNP in terms of votes in the EU Elections the BNP reached just over 945,000 and the Green Party took 1.25 million, so the BNP are still lagging behind even the green party in terms of voter share.
So I don’t see a dramatic turn around in that anytimes soon, the BNP are still in many peoples eyes the offshoot of the National-Front which many voters WON’T touch because of their history, and Nick Griffins OWN history also goes againt the BNP, many people won’t vote BNP because they know his history, so the BNP have too large a battle to fight to even out do UKIP as they don’t have the tainted history that the BNP has.

The traiterous Tories in power to continue where Labour left off. That thought fills me with absolute dread.
Having lived through a few alternating Tory / Labour governments I have witnessed the decline of this once prosperous country.
Voter apathy when it comes to elections is at an all time high (which I will bet is what the like of yourself is banking on) as the main 3 political parties are like a 3 headed dragon. What they may occasionally spit at each other to give the illusion of opposition they are all singing from the same song-book – waging war against the of the electorate by the wholesale surrender of our national sovereignty to a foreign power (there can be no greater act of treason).
True the Tories are the most likely candidates to win the next election, because the have the funding. Funding taken from the taxes we pay to use against us, whereas the BNP relies wholly on contrbutions from those members of the electorate who now realise that for the first time in decades we now have a real choice.
We can have a referendum on Europe by voting BNP to get out.
I suspect that you are unaware that on 20th February 2009 the European Parliament voted in favour of the creation of Synchronized Armed Forces Europe (SAFE) as a first step towards a true European military force. SAFE will be directed by an EU directorate, with its own training standards and operational doctrine.
Already a `think tank` feasibility report has been drawn up to completely integrate all European Armed Services within a projected period of I believe 10 to 20 years.
That will mean our beloved Army, Air Force and Navy will cease to exist to protect our country, and our bases will be filled with a cadre of home and foreign troops giving allegiance to the E.U and to deal with any usurpers that wish to withdraw from the E.U.
The effect of this will be totalitarian control, and short of a home rising, we will NEVER be able to extract ourselves from their `union`.
Meaning we only have the luxury of holding another 2 to 3 general elections after this one if we don’t get out as soon as possible. It will mean the end of Westminster and the UK parliament.
Don’t you think it funny that after years and years of abuse of the expenses system by MP’s that the facts should emerge about how we the electorate have been ripped off just about the same time as Ireland ratified the Lisbon Treaty after being force to hold a 2nd referendum so that they would come up with the “RIGHT” answer.
And here is something else for you to consider: -
As MPs are the people who put this dictatorship in power, they are the greatest threat to take it out of power. All dictatorships in the past have eliminated that threat.
Inside the EU, the lives of MPs will be even worse than our own; at best, they are likely to be institutionalised and held against their will. (This is the only good bit – these despised traitors will suffer severely.)
MPs were encouraged to file exoribitant expense claims. No matter how ridiculous; whether the house/flat/mortgage existed or not, they were paid. Now they have been betrayed by their puppet masters, and to their surprise they are now told what they were encouraged to do is illegal. And we British despise them for it, which was the intention in the first place. They will experience many more betrayals, to prepare us for the closing of Westminster, when we shall be so delighted to see them locked up in the institutions they deserve we’ll hardly notice Westminster’s passing.
Mussolini said: “Fascism (and communism) is the state collaborating with large corporations to defraud the people.” That is exactly what we have seen while we’ve been in the EU. And in 2008, the government agreed to give the banks two thirds of our taxes (£450 billion) to bail them out from their greed and incompetence.
The Conservatives answer to the crdit crisis is, amazingly to give the bank of England even more power.

Absolute rubbish David, “nulabour” has totally betrayed its roots, the working class Briton. Most of the cosseted, self serving, politicians in the party today wouldn’t recognise a working class Briton if they bumped into him in the street!
Many are professional politicians who have no experience of the real world, solely concerned with keeping their snouts in the trough and are totally out of touch with the thinking and aspirations of the average Briton. They are foisting their marxist “multi cultural” society on us without any thought as to the effect it is having on the average Briton & OUR culture! They have conspired and lied over the last 12 years or so to FLOOD Briton with yet more immigrants trying to dilute the british vote & stay in power. They allow these people to come in & immediately claim all the benefits WE have paid for, free healthcare, education, housing etc! Without paying a penny towards it!
Brown in his years as chancellor of the exchequer, has permitted Banks to criminally mismanage their affairs, paying themselves obscene bonus’s, whilst artificially boosting the economy by encouraging people to spend beyond their means with unlimited credit!
Labour has refused to allow the British to have a say on the EU, knowing that most people have increasing doubts as to its benefits to Briton.
They have introduced ever increasing “human rights & racial equality” legislation leading to criminals having more rights than the victims of crime, especially if those criminals are ethnic.
They are pandering to ever more strident & agressive demands of the muslim community by trying to supress traditional British & Christian traditions.
They have continually allowed our education system to be dumbed down with marxist, racial & political correctness, where now many of our children leave school totally unprepared for the work place!
They have lied and got us involved in 2 major wars in Iraq & Afghanistan, whilst simultaneously cutting support for our armed forces CAUSING the loss of yet more lives!
They continue to pour Billions of pounds in aid into corrupt, overpopulated third world countries who do not make any effort to help themselves.
How anybody with half a brain, never mind the self declared IQ of 149, can possibly not see this, makes me wonder if there is a hidden vested interest in keeping the lying, corrupt, incompetent, criminal, fools in power?
The BNP are the ONLY party to address these very real worries!

You know some of the stuff you write above I do agree with, do you think I’m impressed with:
The MP’s expenses mess! Fecking greedy idiots, not even smart enough to change their ways when it was them who voted for their expenses to be made public!!!
Going into Iraq with no plan beyond taking over, even if you give them the benefit of the doubt on WMD, there’s no excuse for NO planning! What were they thinking!
Even I saw future problems with house prices with banks giving 6 and even 10 times mortgages under self certification! I didn’t know about the sub-prime mortgages banking ‘scam’ that was going on, but it doesn’t take a genius to figure out that if house prices go up at a much higher rate than wages and the banks solution is to give bigger mortgages at some point there’s going to be a problem.
I was shocked Gordon Brown as chancellor didn’t see this coming, but that being said apparently no one else did either in this country or anywhere else in the world. I do not understand how no one important didn’t see this coming!
I’m not like the vast majority of BNP supporters commenting here who think the BNP can do no wrong (you wear rose coloured glasses). They are all the same, whether it’s Labour, Conservative, Lib Dems, BNP… not one party truly impresses me, but of course some less than others and the BNP are way, way down in my rankings of trustworthy politicians who will do the right thing for the country.
I’d love to have a better alternative, it certainly is NOT Nick Griffin with his racist and fascist past denying the holocaust and inciting racial hatred. I’d rather have a corrupt Tory in power who likes ornamental duck houses than an ex-National Front member like Nick Griffin with all his conspiracy theories!
BTW you mention career politicians and experience, what experience does Nick Griffin have with his privileged education and declaration of bankruptcy in the early 90s (he couldn’t even manage a business successfully)?

David,
I will answer your question in the spirit in which it is asked.
Since I do not like the way any of the main parties respond to matters of democracy, like a referendum on Europe, or telling lies about WMD, or surrendering our heritage and national pride to just about anyone, I can honestly say that I would have a very difficult task trying to justify voting for any of them.
My long experience of life and elections has convinced me that I cannot believe any of their pre-election promises. Most of them contain a get-out clause, or are so cleveryly worded as to be meaningless.
I am fed up with all the politically correct restrictive laws that prevent free speech, and lately, even freedom of thought.
I also detest MPs who undermine the principles of democracy by setting up and financing the UAF.
MPs, who are supposed to be the champions of democracy, openly flaunt their disregard for those values. Many of them are Labour.
If they don’t like any particular political party, they should fight them at the ballot box, not on the streets.
So, who will I vote for if there is no BNP?
That is like asking me to choose my own poison.
I think I will just hide in a corner and get drunk, or go and buy a prayer mat.
I see no future at all for our grandchildren unless some draconian changes are made.
To my mind, the danger is so great, I would rather risk voting for an inexperienced unknown, than vote for more of the same.
But it is not just me, I can reveal a little secret, a great many evangelical Christians across the land are in a state of panic at what they see as an Islamic takeover.
Millions of Christians, a silent majority, might well vote BNP, so you may get an unpleasant surprise when the results are called. But if the BNP is not available, they probably will not vote at all.
Most certainly, I will never vote labour again, not while I have breath in my body, not after seeing with my own eyes what they have done to this fair country, and to the British people who worked so hard to build it, and suffered and died to defend it.
I really do not understand how a seemingly intelligent person such as yourself cannot see the danger, the mess, and the sorry state this country is in. What hope have our grandchildren if all we leave them is more of the same?
I guess you are in some way insulated (not an insult) but if you look at your own poll results you must wonder why the BNP is still ahead.
There is a reason for this, and it is not activists fiddling the poll results.
The reason is that many people understand something that you do not, – Britain is in danger, and badly needs emergency action, it desperately needs a drastic change of direction.
If I cannot vote BNP, I will not vote at all.

David, the BNP are almost totally dependent on subscriptions from their supporters and cannot afford to put up 600 odd candidates.
All of the media are biased AGAINST the BNP, in fact the NUJ actively discourage any of their members commenting favourably on the BNP. So much for frredom of the press!
Many BNP members who have declared themselves in local covernment or civil service jobs are hounded out, So Much for “human rights”!
Many people are scared by these tactics and of the UAF and wont openly say they support BNP’s policies, but many truly do, some are still deluded by the continuing lies of the big 3, but more & more are seeing the realities of our country and this is why there is such an increasing groundswell of public opinion of which the BNP are the only party to represent, that once the BNP get some more seats, the media will be forced to acknowledge and more support will start flowing in!
None of the Lib/lab/con & UKIP parties have that agenda, UKIP with Pearson, has now proved to be just a ploy to syphon the anti european vote away from the BNP!
Who to vote for if there were no BNP candidate? You would have to see if there was a GOOD independent who genuinely represented local British opinion, if not, spoil the vote by writing ” BNP” on it! enough of these would make the big 3 sit up a bit more!

David,
Another point to consider.
As K Williams just mentioned, the BNP might not win outright this time round, due to lack of money and candidates rather than lack of support, but they sure as hell will win next time.
I can say this with confidence, because the problems this country faces are only going to get rapidly worse under the mainstream regime, which has proven itself to be utterly lacking in any moral fibre whatsoever.
The BNP present the only viable alternative to disaster, and next time round they will start from a stronger base.
Don’t forget, this is only their first serious attempt at a general election.

If the BNP ever win a general election we’d seriously consider leaving and since 90% of the money I make is from the USA that’s a loss to the British economy. There will be 10s of thousands like us who’d consider leaving (BNP policies are a joke, they would destroy this country!), more importantly so would foreign investment which would be devastating to our currently fragile economy.
Labour and Conservatives don’t do a particularly great job at running the country, but at least they live on the same planet as reality with what they want to do.
BTW You can not sit at your computer slating Labour and Conservative politicians over and over when the BNP ones are no better.
Considering how many years the two main parties have been in power (over 100 years) and the BNP haven’t got an MP yet you can still find plenty of BNP councillors and BNP organisers etc… who are criminals.
Wouldn’t you think considering how new the BNP are and how few there are relative to Labour and Conservatives you’d expect to have a couple of bad apples, but not as many as there are? How do you explain this?
If we have 650 candidates for Labour, same for Conservative, but 200 for the BNP, we’d expect to see way below 1/3rd as many criminals in the BNP relative to Labour or the Tories and this is with next years figures, in 2005 the BNP contested 119 seats, so should have about 1/5th as many criminals within it’s ranks and that’s based on them being the same as Labour/Conservatives, not better as the BNP supporters in the comments argue!
That’s not including local councilors, aren’t there over 20,000 local councilors in England and Wales?
Again only a small fraction will be BNP candidates, so when we take it all into account the BNP should not have so many criminals within it’s higher ranks. It should be one or two, not as many as we see.
And the leader, Nick Griffin certainly should not have a criminal record regarding incitement to racial hatred and denying the holocaust, Griffin studied history at Cambridge, he should know better! What sort of educated person, who is in their right mind would believe the holocaust did not happen!!! I can see skinhead idiots who think doing a Nazi salute at an EDL march is fun believing the holocaust isn’t true, they’d believe the moon is made of cheese, but someone with a private school education, went to Cambridge, suggests he isn’t very clever to be able to understand the historical evidence. Has he ever apologised for denying the holocaust?
If not he’s no better than any of the Labour/Tory MP’s who refuse to say sorry when they make a mistake. How on Earth can a Christian vote for such a man, I honestly don’t get it???

Do you have no concerns at all about what labour has done to this country over their time in office?
Do you not worry about the way the country is going?
Do you not worry about anything, other than yourself?
Is it ‘Labour, right or wrong’ – That is what I call shallow minded.

Two misquotes already today, I did not say “will leave this country” I said “If the BNP ever win a general election we’d seriously consider leaving”.
Big difference between we’ve already made a decision and consider it.

What is it with the obsession with the money I make?
If all I cared about was money I’d vote Conservative, they are more pro well off people than Labour.
I vote Labour because I believe those who earn more should give more. If you earn way above the national average wage you don’t miss a £1,000 extra like a family on minimum wage does.
Note: we’ve lived on income support on medical grounds when my health ended my planned career as a geneticist. We know how it is at the bottom of the heap.

I have to agree David if the BNP ever won a General Election I would be leaving the country, the company work for have also said they will close down the UK office and move it somewhere else in Europe putting 5,000 people out of work.
The reason for that is simply that the BNP policies will make it so hard for international companies based in the UK to remain viable and profitable, and I have contacts with my counterparts in other very large companies across the UK who are international companies who all say the same thins, a BNP Government would ruin their UK operations and make them so unprofitable that they would also move to another European country and lay off all the UK workers which means close to 2 million unemployed within months of the BNP being elected.

David, You say that you & thousands of others would leave Britain if the BNP gain power. I can only say that you will be no loss to Britain as it is people like you that have allowed the current criminal idiots to get our country into this mess by allowing the massive flood of unwanted immigrants to enter & take all our hardwon benefits, pour billions of pounds more of OUR taxes into the pockets of corrupt, overpopulated third world countries, the unelected bureaucrats of Europe and the criminally inept Banks.
Dont think that the British public will forget this, there will be repercussions! The BNP will ensure that the people responsible will be held to account for their CRIMINAL lies & mismanagement!!

So a well educated, hard working, business owner, home owner, tax payer wouldn’t be missed?
What sort of people do the BNP want in this country?

David, if you are complicit in the destruction of our country & culture by failing to try to stop it, then yes, Britain is better off without you!
All your declarations about being hard working, home owning, well educated etc, sounds as if you are like many of the self seeking politicians in Westminster and their fellow travellers, with the philosophy “I’M ALL RIGHT JACK, SOD THE REST OF YOU”
You claim to be educated with an IQ of 149, (the same as mine by the way), and yet you cannot, or will not, see the absolute shambles that your beloved “nulabour” and the other political idiots have got us in!
For god sake, take a few days off, walk around many of our “culturally enriched” inner towns & cities, especially in the evenings, see the crime ridden ghettos they have become. Stop believing all the adverse propaganda you read in the biased media about the BNP, go as an observer and you will see most are normal British people from all walks of life, who are just totally fed up with the criminal lies & corruption of the major parties! There are no other parties that reflect the concerns & aspirations of the average Briton, UKIP has been proved to be just a safety valve for the anti europeans in the lib/lab/con with no real convictions, see the Pearson deal with Cameron!
You cannot honestly believe in a party like labour, who have continually lied about immigration, the economy, reasons for war and their own blatant corruption ever since they were elected to government! You have claimed you home educated your children because of the poor LEA in your area, this is reflected throughout Britain because of the marxist, politically correct, dumbing down of our once very good, education system. Most people dont have the luxury to home educate, having to work to pay the bills, hence the poor standards of many of our school leavers. I actually sent my sons to fee paying Grammar schools, because of the poor quality of state schools in my area, necessitating me to take on additional part time work to pay for it!
Once again I urge you LOOK AROUND our country & see for yourself!

New charter may send troops to top of Civvy Street waiting lists
A charter of rights, enshrined in law, is being considered for members of the Armed Forces to ensure that they get priority for health, education and housing.
The Armed Forces already benefit from an unwritten military covenant under which personnel are supposed to be treated with extra care and attention.
However, Bob Ainsworth, the Defence Secretary, said yesterday that he was studying proposals for a legally binding charter that would oblige local authorities to put the military on their priority lists.
“Another possibility is a more general legal duty to treat the Armed Forces properly,” Mr Ainsworth said during a lecture at the Royal United Services Institute in London. This would cover any form of discrimination against military personnel.
