| We dont have to go to the EU for fraudsters we have enough homegrown ones - according to the media! It seems they are all at it! The BNP are picking up disaffected voters - to me they do look like a group of thugs masquerading as wannabee politicans, however, I have heard that as local councillor they do get things done for their ward electorate and when I mean get things done - potholes mended, rubbish collected- all those things that we expect to happen but when the system goes awry infuriates us. I think the 3 main parties will be in for a shock on Thursday - but I think it will be sunday (EU counted on sunday) before it is known. Many people I know back in UK dont know how to vote so I think it will be an interesting outcome. |

| Difficult question, I guess that once you take out the facist neo-nazi element of any political party then they have as good a chance of running or ruining a country as any other party, some people live in the TRNC because they would rather be a foriegner in a foriegn country than treated like one in their homeland. The UK has become more multi-cultural and the government(s) have been obliged to accommodate foriegn citizens, especially citizens from countries that our forefathers invaded, raped, pillaged gave an education system, health care and demorcracy to and then buggered of to let them fight against their neighbours! I am sure the majority of adverts for employment in the official gazzette (Kibris) specify that the vacancy is for vatandash (citizens) only, not sure if that is acceptable under EU employment guidelines or could be seen as a racist attempt at having a Cyprus job for Cypriots policy. No harm in the BNP looking for British Jobs for British citizens one would assume |

| Nobody should vote for the BNP, they are a bunch of racist holigans, with their own racest agenda for supreme rule, we had one come to our house last week spouting their crap and their idea of a white britan, with no imigrants, (including Gurkha's). |

| BNP is getting more media attention these days WHY because now 54% of the country population were not even born there !! This government and previous governments have not done enough to stop the tide of immigration. They should look at the Australian policy. No money no entry .There are no incentives to stay in UK any more because most of your taxes indirectly pay these immigrants. |

| The Australian prime minister has a really enlightened opinion about immigration and integration.It is dimetrically opposed to our own in the UK(when I say our own....I mean the PC Stalinist brigade that think they represent all of us). I am certainly not racist as many of my asian/afrocaribbean will testify,but the policies of the extreme left have caused many middle of the roaders to become disenfranchised with such parties,and I guess they feel that the BNP is the only way to vote in the circumstances. Certainly,tail-wagging-dog politics has left a sour taste in the mouths of many. |

| The 3 main parties have all failed, and the UKIP Leader MEP is one of the biggest expense claimers in Europe - £2,000,000 (yes two million pounds) over the last 10 years. Labour has given the BNP its chance by allowing un-controlled immigration over the last decade - even ex-pat Idians I work with complain about the immigration controls being too lax into the UK !!!! I can see the BNP making big gains in the EU elections, as there is nobody else who seems to have any ideas or ideals, other than lining their own pockets. Mark |

| As always - well said Lem! Although, on a more serious note, I do think a lot of people will vote BNP. People have very short memories. I wonder, going off-thread slightly here, could I call everyone's attention to message 11 please: "dimetrically" - so sorry to be a nit picker here - but aren't you the clever one??? I am but a humble medical sec. but should this not be "diametrically"? Sorry, Clarets, couldn't resist it J |

| The BNP is an outrageous blight on the political scene in Britain. They are racist, have few if any workable policies and should be resisted at all turns. The lack of credible politicians to oppose them is a sad endictment of the three main parties and the situation is not helped by the majority of the press which is right wing not stalinist condemning them in a mealy mouth fashion whilst sensationalising stories that only prey on the very prejudices that the BNP are looking to exploit. There iss not uncontrolled immigration in the Uk, it is controlled but not perhaps as strictly as other countries, where we fail is dealing with it effectively. the non white population of the UK is just under 10%, the vast majority of whom were born in the UK. These are facts not hysteria Harold2555 Also your taxes don |

| Msg 20,sorry J,missed the "a" in all the excitement. Thanks for the correction. I am certain that lots of people will vote for change this time,as many are really fed up with left-wing,PC dogma being forced down their throats by sinister Stalinist governments,who have virtually destroyed political choice in the UK. |

| Absolutely correct Harold2555! It is easy to blame the immigrants for the state of Britain in general and British politics in particular. Quite a few of the posts here have a latent racist tone - but I guess we should expect that from so called 'populists' who will scapegoat anyone or anything to get some vile and disgusting policies on the agenda! No great country needs a bunch of thugs and racists to get their house in order! The major parties have taken much for granted - and the average Btit be they white, black, brown, yellow or even purple - know and understand that the 'system' has failed them. To blame immigrants is like blaming the trees for a forest fire! Don't forget on the 65th anniversary of D-Day that millions of 'immigrants' gave their lives for the British Empire - I don't see the BNP mentioning this in their vile propaganda! If we want change - we can get it without supporting the extremists of any persuation! |

| Mover 321,"millions of immigrants gave their lives" on D-day.You must have been to a different Normandy to me then.....the men that gave their lives on D-day in France were good old Anglo-Saxon Brits and a few Americans and some Anzacs.I have been to the graveyards and seen the graves....with good old Britsh names, some from USA and some from Australia and New Zealand. You really gotta stick to making comments about what you know.......lots of left wing bull..... coming through here! |

| M321,I apologise for that error! WW1 and WW2 are favourite subjects of mine! I think you will find that good old Blighty supplied the vast majority of the cannon fodder in both....the Battle of the Somme,for instance. My grandfather was there....didnt mention too many immigrants,and there arent too many on the rolls of honour either......so where were all the immigrants actually helping out,whilst the godd old Blighty boys were taking the lead? You illuminate your ignorance of our mother tongue by selling us cheap to the Stalinist infiltrators. Right wing doesnt mean wrong....its just RIGHT. |

| You need to read history Crusader - not make it up! I believe anyone with an ounce of commonsense knows that millions of immigrants gave their lives in India, Burma, North Africa to name a few places! So please if you want to make up history go ahead and please yourself but don't try and fool us! Just imagine a population of less than 50 million then defending the British Empire without the help of the Commonwealth as it is now? Hardly logical is it?

| Harold, ref message 21 I have a friend who works in the Asylum branch of the civil service who told me this directly When the government said they were going to reduce the number of asylum seaker by a set date they did, on the exact date they said they would - there were just lots more tourist visas, medical visas and education visas granted from then on - I don't know how this can be described as "controlled", in my mind it's just another bit of New Labour spin to fiddle the figures yet again.

| Mark! Do you honestly believe that if there was not a single asylum seeker in the UK or not one more immigrant that the problems faced by the UK would be solved? Do you believe that asylum which is a moral as well as a legal obligation should be torn up by the UN? If we go around the world causing conflicts in countries where we have no reason to be there i.e. Iraq, is it surprising that we have more Iraqi refugees? Sometimes I wonder why people can't just be honest and say what they mean instead of shrouding it in some kind of verbiage which is meaningless! If you don't want asylum seekers then vote BNP or any other party that you feel comfortable with. Just remeber that we live in a global village and what goes around comes around! Love to see your reaction when 750,000+ Brits living overseas in the EU come back "home"! |

| M321,before illuminating your lack of knowledge further for all to see,please avail yourself of the history of WW1 and WW2.You will find that the vast majority of men who fell in the fields of the Somme(1.5 million casualties) were from Germany and the larger part from Blighty.You assume that because we have a relatively small populus,we didn't have a lot of men in the forces....wrong. UK population then was 45 million and our casualties were 885000,India total populus 315 million...casualties 74000.....need I go on! |

| Yes Clarets! and when your beloved BNP pulls out of the EU and all these ex-pats have to 'come home' - I hope you and Nick Griffen will look after them As far as your numbers are concerned you really have a problem with being selective! Try reading history from reputable and object sources. Just tell me how many foreigners died for the British Empire in WW 1 and WW 2? You seem to have a problem with people of a different view than your own distorted propaganda! When you can actually take off your prejuidicial sun glasses may be just may be we can have a proper debate here! |

| I am chilled out! tell me who is using intemperate language? I have said - if Clarets is comfortable with the BNP that is his choice! I believe that setting a false premise on what the immigrants have done for the UK needs and should be challenged - that doesn't mean that Clarets or anyone else is not free to have and air their opinion! I simply challenge their premise! Isn't that my right of free speech? Or perhaps that only applies to those who support facist and racist organisations? It is simply a question and NOt a slur!

| If BNP is the answer then is was a very, very stupid question! Roger, so why do you just single me out in your message no: 43? Seems that you are a bit selective in asking one person to 'chill' and say nothing about the diatribe coming from other quarters! Mark! Whoopie - found another angle to show why foreigners could have fought WW 1 and WW 2! The fact remains they fought for the British Empire! And further you state "...if we didn't stop them at our back door.." I beg to differ - if it wasn't for the foreigners, the Yanks and the Russians you'd be speaking German today! So please, let's have some serious balance here! |

| M321, can you actually read or are you just being obstinate ? Aussie deaths 62k,Canadian deaths 65k,Indian 74k,S.Africa 9k,and the UK itself 885 K.I hope that clarifies the issue and it still indicates that the UK based Anglo-Saxon populus actually lost a hell of a lot more men than all the Empire put together...hows that for prejudicial glasses...cant spell it out any simpler than that. If you are still struggling.....get a job as a judge....most of them are senile! |

| M321 Whatever anyone feels, the BNP are a legal political party, and have not comitted any crime Many may not like what they stand for, but we live in a democracy where people are free to express their opinions, as long as they are within the law - not allowing the BNP their democratic freedoms and right to speach IS fascism. I think the main political parties are scarred to death of the beating they are going to get on Thursday, due to their greedy abuses of their priviledged positions, and are spreading propoganda about the BNP (which may be true or not, I have not studied their manifesto) Mark |

| So let's get it right for the BNP! 1. If you are British and you live in another EU country or anywhere in the Commonwealth or for that matter the world you are an ex-pat. BNP: If by the same token you are a foreigner living in the UK you are an immigrant and shoud be sent back! 2. If you are black or brown and score goals for England or runs for the cricket team you are a fantastic British sportman! BNP: If your father or mother comes from overseas you have to go back with them even if you are UK born and have made sporting history! 3. If you are white and run a successful business and employ 100's of people you are a tycoon! if you are black and run a successful business you are simply a **** 4. If you are black or foreign and die for Britain you are a hero. BNP: You are just one less to worry about! 5. if you are an asylum seeker and prove your status - you are a refugee. BNP: If you are an asylum seeker you are a scrounger. |

| Clarets - it seems to be your innate quality that when you are challenged your reaction is to insult people! Message 54: ".....get a job as a judge....most of them are senile" I would say perhaps you need to get some good manners and cultivate an ability to debate without resorting to insults! But then I forget you like the BNP - says everything I guess |

| The BNP will fail for one reason and one reason only - the fundamental decency of the vast majority of Britis people. Even given the circumstances where the major parties have caused great pain to the poor in the UK be they white, black or brown - the fact remains that too many British people have decent values to support such a racist party - legal or not! |

| Uncontrolled immigration!!!! not in our case we decided to live in the TRNC as the Brit Govt were in my opinion too strict, to let my wife (married seven years) who has a Kyrgyz passport and a Russian passport live in Our House bought with my earnings they wanted me to give up my job as an international consultant and stay in the uk a min 10 months per year but still pay my way with no recourse to public funds. Go through a 5 year two stage residency period for my wife and then for her to have to take a Citizen exam that the majority of citizens would fail just so I can have the pleasure of paying the new 50% tax levied on higher earners. I was actually informed by an immigration officer it would be easier if we went to a police station in Kyrgyzstan and got a letter stating we were having problems with local activists and get her in on a political asylum status, did not want to go down that road as it would not be the truth. Gave up and came here......... |

| Why does this guy go on about Anglo Saxon deaths in WW1 and WW2? If you see the lists of dead in the battlefield graveyards you will find a large number of Scots, Welsh and Irish died there too. Relative to their populations their losses were enormous. Some of the islands lost most of their menfolk. My father fought with Cameronian Scottish Rifles and was a snipe They stayed behind in France to run races for their regiments and their country. They were proud of their country, but they were not racialist. |

| For those who still believe the BNP is not a racist party this is from their constitution: SECTION 2: MEMBERSHIP 1) The British National Party represents the collective National, Environmental, Political, Racial, Folkish, Social, Cultural, Religious and Economic interests of the indigenous Anglo-Saxon, Celtic and Norse folk communities of Britain and those we regard as closely related and ethnically assimilated or assimilable aboriginal members of the European race also resident in Britain. Membership of the BNP is strictly defined within the terms of, and our members also self define themselves within, the legal ambit of a defined ‘racial group’ this being ‘Indigenous Caucasian’ and defined ‘ethnic groups’ emanating from that Race as specified in law in the House of Lords case of Mandla V Dowell Lee (1983) 1 ALL ER 1062, HL. |

| Cont'd. 2) The indigenous British ethnic groups deriving from the class of ‘Indigenous Caucasian’ consist of members of: i) The Anglo-Saxon Folk Community; ii) The Celtic Scottish Folk Community; iii) The Scots-Northern Irish Folk Community; iv) The Celtic Welsh Folk Community; v) The Celtic Irish Folk Community; vi) The Celtic Cornish Folk Community; vii) The Anglo-Saxon-Celtic Folk Community; viii) The Celtic-Norse Folk Community; ix) The Anglo-Saxon-Norse Folk Community; x) The Anglo-Saxon-Indigenous European Folk Community; xi) Members of these ethnic groups who reside either within or outside Europe but ethnically derive from them. 3) Membership of the party shall be open only to those who are 16 years of age or over and whose ethnic origin is listed within Sub-section 2. |

| So people like - Lewis Hamilton, Dame Kelly Holmes, Rio Ferdinand, Amir Khan, Sol Cambell, Ashley Cole, Nigel Benn, Frank Bruno, Joan Armatrading. Melanie Brown. Alesha, Jamelia to name a few to be sent back to their 'home' country just for being black or brown? A touch ridiculous and what about all those brave black and brown people who have died for Britain in Iraq / Afghanistan? Perhaps repatriate their bodies too? Take away their medals? How abouth the Gurkhas? Seems like many who support the BNP don't have a clue what their constitution states and then claim that the BNP is not racist - lol )) |

| There wouldn't be a BNP if the indigenous English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish weren't being marginalised in their own countries. For instance. It's apparently not racist to have a Black Police Officers Association. It is however racist to want a White Police Officers Association. Black Pride day is ok but not White Pride Day. Gay Pride is ok but not Heterosexual Pride Day. If you're a Muslim you can say what you like about Christians but if you say any thing against the Muslims you're racist. If you're against illegal immigration you're racist. Why can only Whites be Racist ? Al this and much more has been caused by this governments attempt at social engineering and deprecation of anything British. I hold no brief for the BNP but I will vote UKIP. |

| That old chestnut - Black Police Association! 1. It is an association and not a political party. 2. It represents a lobby for the discrimination faced by black and asian police officers - proven by many Independent reports. 3. The vast majority of the police forces in the UK are predominantly white. 4. The BNP is a POLITICAL party seeking to govern the UK! It wants to institutionalise racism against black and ethnically different people. 5. It wants to repatriate people who are of a different colour even if they are born in the UK. You can vote for the BNP or for UKIP - it is your free choice. But just for one moment think what the BNP represents - it wants to take away the freedom of BRITISH people based on the colour of their skin or ethnicity. If you think that voting UKIP will help the UK - well you are entitled to that view - but just ask yourself why are you living in the TRNC - and are you not an immigrant? Perhaps you would want to be called an ex-pat |

| UKIP is an one issue party. Get the UK out of the EU. I think many in the EU would not be too sad to see the UK out - then they can get on with the business of building the EU without having a whinging country always wanting things their way! If you recall in 1974 you had a choice to be in the Common Market or out of it. Remember that it was the Tory government that brought us the Mastricht and Nice Treaties. Remember that 65%+ of UK trade is with the EU. Remember that nearly 4 million jobs in the UK depend on being part of the EU. If you still believe that UKIP will solve all the UK problems, well Geejay, living in cloud cookoo-land comes to mind! Get used to the idea that you too are an immigrant and if there was a party in TRNC asking for you to be repatriated because you are white- how would you feel? Finally, Geejay - why did you choose to live in a predominantly Muslim part of Cyprus? Seems like you and others on this 'ex-pat' forum want your cake and eat it too! |

I am fed up with all the PC brigade, the immigration control is a joke we are being overun with illegal immigrants sponging from a state that i have paid my taxes to over the last 25 years. Our country is run by Brussels fronted up by a load of bent mp's. Enough is enough time to act before this once great country sinks to new depths. While i don't agree with all the BNP's policies i can see them being a viable option for those amongst us who are fed up with the way our country is being run............... |

It seems that Moover 321 and Little Nige (being little englanders) don't really like any discussion on this but would rather force their opinions onto others. I make no excuses for being patriotic. But you guys are so keen to run the UK and it's citizens down with your comments about racism, bigotry and nationalism that you don't realise the damage that you are doing to my country. When you descend to insults like this, you've lost the argument !! How dare you critiscise my ethical convictions when yours are so suspect. |

| Kav - You seem to be a lost soul! How can anyone "impose" their opinions on others? We can discuss, we can debate - but people here and in general are usually intelligent enough to make up their own minds! It is not as if I am waterboarding anyone - is it? I simply express my views as you express yours. The fact that you are insecure about living in a global village is really not an issue for me - however, you can vote as you please - but so can I That my friend is the beauty of living in a free country and the rule of law! Like it or hate it - that is how it is! You can crow all you like but you cannot turn the clock back to the Victorian era! Enjoy |

| MM I'll give you one example I work as a freelance IT'er. New Labour introduced a regulation called IR35 that means I now, on my income I have to pay tax, employers national insurance, and employees national insurance (i.e. about 24% NI as well as normal income tax), but if I have no work I can not get unemployment benefit, or tax free redundancy pay. At the same time, many thousands of Indians have been allowed to come to the UK under advantageous tax schemes (I think the company pays a flat 10%). I worked for a well known American "services company" that was once part of GM until quite recently - they were sacking local workers who had been in the company for years, and bringing over Indians to fill their roles. These Indians were all bought in on tourist visas - they got away with this for a long time. So, I was born here and pay very high levels of NI, but for some reason the government gives tax breaks to Indian firms so English people are undercut and loose their jobs. |

The new world is what it is - people from all walks of life live in many different countries from many different origins! Go get a DNA test and you will find that you have probably nearly the same DNA as an Asian or a North African! My friend you are free to vote as you please.

You may not be taking welfare from the TRNC but you are benefiting from the system! Try working that out - it is really not that difficult! And as someone who has paid a lot of tax in the UK and NEVER once taken a penny from the State - I resent your implications of what immigrants do or do not do! There is fortunately in the UK the rule of law and any freedom we have is defined under the law! You left the UK by choice - good for you - then stop telling us who are in the UK how we should live and what we should do with OUR taxes Enjoy |

And you think if the BNP was in power they would create jobs? No one would invest in the UK - the BNP does not have a single coherent economic policy save kick out the immigrants! That is a recipe for disaster! Enjoy |

I think that your posts reveal your thought processes as probably racist against the indigenous population (whatever colour). It is you that attacks others for having views other that yours. It is you that needs a reality check. The UK is being overrun by ILLEGAL immigrants. No one in their right minds would accept this as normal. Why do you think it's racist that I don't like it ? Why can you not accept that this governments policies place too great a strain on our tolerance ? |

| M321 , ref post 90 I have no problems with Indian IT workers, they are almost all very nice people who are making the best of life - it's the governments policies I have the problem with. I don't think most British people have any problem with foreigners & immigrants, it's the bias the government has towards them that is the problem. Say you work for 50 years in the UK paying all your tax & NI for that time, but you move to the TRNC, but after 3 months, you are no longer entitled to free NHS treatment, yet anyone can get off a plane at Heathrow, and start sponging off the NHS for free straight away - is this right?

| Dear Mark re 86/87 I'm well aware of IR35 - Haven't you registered a RoC CY based company ..... ?! It is/ was quite wrong to allow non EU nationals to work on Tourist Visas and as you know any employer found doing this is liable to fines of £10k per employee and Directors face imprisonment . The whole point is that the IR / DWP/ NI , Police and border Control folk should be INTEGRATED .. too many non entitled folk are getting in as "students" / tourists. I can't see how voting BNP / UKIP is going to change your problem ;) |

If you cannot take a bit of irony that is really your issue and not mine! I have every right to say what I think of the BNP or UKIP or Labour or anyone else! That is after all what we mean by 'free speech' isn't it? Or is free speech only what YOU mean it to mean - nothing more and nothing less? As for being PC - since when has being polite and moral been an insult? I take it as a compliment! Mark - I have not said anywhere that you are a racist or that you support the BNP or whoever! You are a free individula obviously with a talent and want to make the most of his life! of course it is upsetting when the rules are changed by OUR government and it then makes it easier for others to exploit! The fact still remains it is OUR government who should shoulder the blame! Quite how voting for the BNP or UKIP will change anything is beyond me! |

Like I said, I am not sure what you are on but it seems to be the same thing as Gordon Brown No one said objecting to illegal immigration is a crime - just try hard to actually read what I have said! The point is that the PROBLEM is the government policy and NOT the immigrant population! If you believe that voting for the BNP will change this - please go ahead! I can criticise the BNP if I wish! That is the meaning of free speech under the rule of law! Perhaps it would be also important to see yourself living in the TRNC as a legal immigrant as opposed to an expat! You might, just might have some empathy with people who travel half way around the world in a container to find a better life after being persecuted for their beliefs or political activities! Life is not just about yourself and those of the same colour as you! Life is much more than that! |

| Moover321,I don't know why you bother! I have had many evenings spoilt by the racist,sexist outpourings of the types on this forum who blame everyone but themselves for the problems being experienced not only in England but throughout Europe and the rest of the world. It was the same in the forces . My attempts to mix with local Cypriots in the late 60s were frowned upon by many of my colleagues .One moron attacked a local who had been invited to a "British" barbecue and put him in hospital much to the sniggering amusement of some of the "British" guests. This is one of the reasons why I now avoid places frequented by ex pats as much as possible. And if you dare to speak out you're a left wing ,pc, do gooder. (Even when you are nothing of the sort) Never mind politics! What about morality and common decency and respect for your fellow man??? |

| Hello LittleJohn! Lovely to hear some positive feedback! I totally agree with your sentiments. I guess I bother because I believe if I didn't then others reading the racist diatribe will start to believe the garbage they regurgitate will regarded as the norm! I come from the old school of thought that when you see a wrong you should challenge it! Nonetheless, you are correct in that the 'British ex-pats' (immigrants) do have a tendency to 'stick together' the same thing they accuse the immigrants (expats) of other countries in the UK. As for the notion of mixing with locals I think it is the right way to go! You only feel at 'home' if you appreciate your neighbour and those who live in the community as a whole! Perhaps they believe that this forum is for right wing facists or 'so called patriots'. They simply forget that they are living in the TRNC and it is not the UK! I hope you have had good experiences living in meeting the locals and all the best to you! |

| Kav! Do you know what the plot was? I guess you could not have 'lost the plot' as you never understood it in the first place! Keep on 'forming' your own opinions based on the racist propaganda of the likes of the BNP! Good luck to you! I guess no matter what, it looks like you will need it! Nobody is 'ramming' anything down anyone's throat - but I guess you feel offended by the fact that someone challenges your racist ideology! You are probably used to everyone just having your opinion and when someone challenges you with facts, ideas and concepts you resort to 'an us and them' attitude. Your assumption that I drive a big flash car with private number plates etc., is indicative of how insecure you feel! It hard for you to grasp that you can have a moral, balanced point of view without being rich! I work for my living - I do not drive a big flash car and I thought private number plates were the preserve of the Essex men Enjoy |

| I make no apologies for voting BNP. I know they will never form a government. I wouldn't want them to. My reasoning is that if they get enough votes, then the clowns in power might just look at some of their less outrageous policies, and they have some, and maybe act more the way we want. Even Adolf Hitler had some good ideas to begin with, absolute power sorta made him go to the extreme. |

| Minertor - I guess when what you have actually said made any sense I would glady study the English language! However, as it stands your actual perceptions of what I have said are somewhat incongruent with the facts! Did I really say millions of immigrants gave their lives on D-Day? I suggest you re-read what I actually said after you have had a good detox of your English comprehension! If I said, what you claim, I would happily vote for the BNP as a result of my studpidity! However, if I didn't say what you claim, then perhaps the least you could do is to apologies! I will not be holding my breadth for your apology as I would almost be certain it will not be forthcoming from someone who will be too red faced to acknowledge he had in fact been wrong! Enjoy |

| Minertor! Adolf Hitler had some good ideas did he? Give me one idea that he had that was good by any reasonable standard? You my old chap, are free to vote for whosoever you feel comfortable voting for and you do not have to justify your vote! Equally, I can air my views on the BNP or any other party - as the last time I looked this was still a free country under the rule of law! Sometimes the logic we apply to our votes gets us in to trouble! never forget Hitler was 'elected' Enjoy |

| Clarets - nothing people say or do can surprise us. As a doctor, you better than most should know that human behaviour is at best an enigma! MP's stealing from the tax payer for example is something most people would think should never happen - yet the same people will happily fail to pay VAT on a building project by paying cash! Granted not many of us have moats or duck islands - but the idea of 'house flipping' has been a common practice amongst many from all walks of life - simply because the Capital Gains Tax law allows this as an exception! The point I am making is that people may very well do as they have told you - but then again they may not! The bottom line, if there is one is whether the BNP get elected as a national government! To my mind that is unlikely to happen as in the bigger picture most people know what the BNP really stands for - racism, bigotry and thug like behaviour! That's why I believe the vast majority of British people are too decent to vote BNP! |

| Of course we judge MP's to a different standard and that is correct - there are a few MP's who have not made a mint from being in parliament - but they are few and far between! As hard as it is to imagine - parliament is actually a lot cleaner than it used to be! I guess all these things are relative! A lot of Tory MP's see the MP's job as part-time as most work for several companies as non-executive directors; Ditto with some Labour MP's in the Blair era - and of course some had connections with the Unions! All in all, politics has never been clean and in all probability will never be fully clean and transparent - as many of the things that go on are as we say on a 'nod and a wink' basis! The best we can hope for is to constantly challenge those representing us! |

| In an English country garden. All gardeners know what weeds are, something growing where it shouldn;t. When God created the world it was a perfect garden, everyone belonged in his place. You put your flowers in front, away from your veggies, they go out back. Your lettuces might be perfect, but if one grows among your tulips you pull it out before it seeds. If it comes in your roses again the following year, put it on the compost heap. Same goes for your flowers. If they come up among your veggies, replant them where they belong. If they do it again, throw them on the compost heap. Don't let them seed or you'll never get rid of them, the seedlings might even attack your established plants. BNP are good gardeners, mebbe God spent too much time fishing and not enough time looking after His garden. Of course in the bricked over England of today, there aren't enough gardeners. Remember the call to gardeners in 1940, Dig for Victory. ps I can't believe I wrote this, |

They are a bunch of racist thugs who only know how to attact defenceless people whose only "crime" is to be of a different colour or ethnic origin irrespective in which garden they were born! I am sorry, but you are simply delusional about what the BNP represents! Good luck at the doctors! |

| ilovekibris-surely this is exactly the group of people AH appealed to? Of course to them he was talking sense. My late mother was very, very prejudiced, particularly against black people. Many years ago (1970's) she told me that the BNP "had the right idea". I tried and tried (as did my Father) to explain what the BNP stood for - she would have none of it. When I tried to point out to her that she, as an older person, would stand no chance, she called me a liar. She was a poorly educated woman, born in 1916, and, to her, the BNP policies made perfect sense, e.g. country in poor state, due to immigrants, get rid of them. Strangely enough, she was extremely pro-Jewish and thought that AH was the devil incarnate (which he was). She simply could not or would not see that the BNP were nazi's. Oh well................... By the way, she was also a big fan of Enoch Powell (the original, if you see what I mean). J |

| The only thing for 'evil' to succeed is for good people to do nothing! If today's D-Day Commemoration tells us anything it is that even 65 years later - the thing that brought people together from all over the world was the notion that what the Nazis stood for was inherently immoral and evil. That people from all faiths and no faiths fought to be rid of such tyranny is an exemplar for future generations that there is more that unites us as Humankind than divides us! To hate someone because they are of a different colour or a different culture or a different religion is the first step on a very, very slippery slope! I hope and pray that we do not forget the reason why so many gave their lives for the very freedoms we enjoy today - and that if there is an inkling of similar hatred being nutured then we take their example and stand up for what is moral and right. |

| Moover321. Well said - all of it. It wouldn't take long for the BNP to turn onto its 'own kind' to keep the economy going. Just look at what Hitler/Nazis did to their own people-every facet of their lives affected down to who they could marry, women having to breed their blond, blue-eyed offspring, not allowed to work and later being forced to work from economic necessity, murdering their disabled etc etc; freedom was very much restricted for every Aryan. It's unworkable. The BNP in power would be a nightmare for everyone. You lot would be begging for immigrants and life as it was. LOL. A question for you BNP sympathisers. If the BNP came to power and kicked out Turkish Cypriots from the UK (amongst others) would you agree with such a policy? |

Am i being ignorant or missing something? is he really a B N P member or is he just looking after his pocket? i thought of asking the Question to nick Griffin, when i passed his house in oswestry, or farm should i Say.

| Albeit being born to Irish parents. I was fortunate enough to have a father who served in the forces for thirty eight years. This first and formost afforded me and on many occasion, to protect myself. On occasion the violence afforded me as an outsider, still concerns me. The art of self defence, became part of my childhood upbringing. Never start a fight .. but god only knows, we could finish one. Throughout my life and career, i tend to protect. Bullies, Hard Men, anti-social critters, dealers and wheelers share the same disease. I have been very fortunate to have worked all over the world. My family have on occasions shared my experience. Colour, race, creed, political persuasion, sexuality, religion and the many more facets that make up the human race ; deserve respect. Imagine being the warden select on a beach, having to remove the pebbles and stones that dont' fit. The wardens manager who want only a desert. |

| i l k. insecure, feeble minded. poorly educated, why? because the view differs to yours. Have you ever had an original thought or do you always follow the pack, like all good nimbys. Don't knock Adolf, he came to power because he had some good ideas to help his people. He just had some bad advisers. History has always been recorded by the winners of wars. One of my best friends is a German, not a Hitler fan. 95% of his employees are foreign, mostly East European, two coloured. Don't know where they're from, never thought to ask. I only mention him because on one of the few occasions that we discussed the war, he was adamant that had Germany ever succeeded in invading England, Churchill would have been the first one hung, quickly followed by "bomber" Harris. And I thought (still think) that they were heroes. The greatest war crime was the concentration camps. They were a British invention, not much advertised by brits, obviously.

Just as a matter of interest....how would the BNP policies affect your beloved NHS if all the overseas nurses and medical staff were "sent back"? Don't tell me that those jobs would be filled by homegrown talent,because as you know successive recruitment drives have failed....and necessitated the need for massive recruitment drives abroad to keep the NHS running. |

| Good morning Clarets, Nige re 133/4 I'm pretty sure I'm not left of centre in my political viewpoint and can read( and question ) Political Parties pre election "bumpf" literature. I simply don't understand how someone with a home in Cyprus could vote ( or even understand someone voting ) for a party that if replicated in CY would want you to leave - even -if you had been invited and even fought for your adopted nation. IF any of you were really involved in the process of attempting to bring in non EU family members to the UK you'd realise that we already have strong immigration laws.. The problem is dealing with folk who arrive without papers who claim political asylum and then disappear or get amnesties. re 17 KellyBelly, "I'll be voting BNP".. Why am I not surprised...? I'll leave you to work out how to explain how it is OK for us to have a half TC lad die in N.I.serving his country - yet vote for party this would have liked to "re-patriate him and one o |

| There are lots more than Nick Griffin saying the very same about Poles,Pakistanis, and just about every other minority you can think of. At least the Poles helped us during the War. There are plenty more who live in the UK and want to change our way of life because it doesnt fit in with their religious ideologies....they can happily go forth to where they came from.I use rather Australian PM type views of such people.If you dont like Anglo-Saxon islands off the Western coast of Europe...clear off! |

| Dear Iain re msg 144/5 >>At least the Poles helped us during the War.<< Actually, we were supposed to be helping the Poles - THAT's why the UK entered WW2..Did you forget ?! What did "we" ( UK) do? We let Stalin keep ALL of Poland and part of Poland annexed into the Ukraine in the dastardly Molotov-Ribbentrop pact ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molotov–Ribbentrop_Pact_negotiations) was and never has been returned ... I think we lost WW2 as "our" aims were not achieved .. "We" also sent back Ukrainians and Cossacks to certain death ...NOT our finest hour.. re Australians.. we currently refuse visas or entry for Aussies who come here for tourist reasons if we we think they came here to work .... so much for our "anglo-saxon" relations - when the recession bites in Oz expect the same protectionism. So, back to the Poles.. do you agree with Nick Griffin ? Should THEY be sent home.. ? If so then we must send back Germans, and of course the Irish... LUNACY |

Shot or starved after arriving at Odessa or later in Mongolia. Interesting books are available about this "little deal" between Stalin and the UK. OK. Back to this interesting discussion about "your" BNP. The equivalent unfortunately exists in Holland: Geert Wilders' "Partij Voor de Vrijheid" (Party for Freedom) or PVV. This party was the big winner in the EU Parliamentary elections - obviously there's something very rotten in Denmark, but not only there... |

| Hey DC, re msg 148/9 I forgot about the Dutch.. if we send back EU citizens then the Dutch are in the "same boat"....;) How many generations back will you go? What will the Premiership football league be like when we have thrown out all the non EU players.. So come on BNP voters... did you think this through ? If we are going to leave the EU and send back Poles, what about other EU members ? Do you expect them to accept our "non Brits out" policy and not respond in kind... ? |

| It never ceases to amaze me how many Brit racists (closet or otherwise),can't see the irony of spouting their "send 'em back" vitriol,whilst buying and settling abroad themselves. The Spanish Costas are full of them..... but it's the TRNC that really surprises me....why choose to live in a predominantly Muslim country? Answers on a scratchcard please. |

| As I have posted in another thread, the BNP is bad news for the TRNC, and potentially even for expats living in the TRNC. The BNP is opposed to: immigration, Muslims, Turkey, internationalism. Their rhetoric, especially if taken up by the British public, will have a negative impact on UK-Turkey relations, which will strengthen the hand of the griks against the TRNC. The support of the UK is especially important in EU settings where the UK advocates also on behalf of the United States. Although the BNP on their own are not a concern, in order to capitalise on their support, the Tories will adopt some of their softer policies. And you ought to know three things: (1) the Tories will lead the next government in the UK, (2) The griks and GCs in London have been rallying big time to get Tories elected, in both local councils and the EU parliament, and (3) One of the new conservative Euro MPs elected in the UK is a grik!

| Hi ozzieTC, if the BNP policies per se aren't important, how can their guiding policies be said to be so. The policies per se form an intrinsic principle in said guidelines. As for Nirvana, leave it to those that know what they want out of death. Stick to Christianity, I have it on good authority that Jesus lives, but apparently he's working on a much less ambitious project. That BNP leader had eggs thrown at him outside Westminster today. He was there to answer media questions re. BNP policies. The leader of the attackers, a big black guy with a t-shirt emblazoned with some legend against racism, spoke with a Jim Davidson accent about freedom of speech. Great advert for BNP, must have added a fair (no pun intended) few to their ranks |

| In the stock market, if a stock is overvalued it will eventually get corrected. This is the function of selling short. If there is too much yang in the system it will need to shift to ying, to create balance, so as disease does not set in. Increased votes for the BNP is simply a correction in the system. It's a correction to Labour party which has lost touch with it's own internal compass and the electorate. What the rich liberal elite do not understand is that humans operate within a pecking order. If you introduce new chickens in to an already established pen there will be an almighty fight for status. This is a tough fight, but it does not involve those at the top of the pecking order only those at the bottom. This is the same for humans, the rich elite don't have to compete, the poorer vulnerable workers have to compete with the economic migrants, it is tough and it creates fear |

| cont msge 182 Protectionism has three drivers - labour wars, decreased rent and insufficient capital. The labour market is being squeezed and there is a real fear to losing out to economic migrants. People feel unprotected by the Labour party, they feel labour protects the minority, so they seek solidarity in a group that they think will protect them.They know that the BNP doesn’t offer much, but it is taking up the fight. People will fight even if it means their own demise. Why not, there is nothing to lose. Being at the bottom of the pecking guarantees a meaningless and painful existence. Under labour (supposedly the party of the people) the gap between rich and poor has never been wider in Britain. The lowly British workers are being thrown on the scrap heap. It’s predictable that they will join the BNP and quite frankly I don’t blame them. |

The analogy in both men's careers are striking. Whatever Mr. N. Griffin says *now* - he said terrible things *before*. A leopard cannot change its spots. Don't let Griffin fool you - men like him are not the solution to anything. Unfortunately you find men like him in every European country.

And remember how Hitler c.s. created "a Jewish problem" - like Griffin creates "a Moslim problem" now (after he created and "forgot" some other "problems"). Imo integration and dialogue is the only viable answer. |

| re msg 184 Mark, I also know some great elderly Polish people. Among them those of Jewish ethnicity experienced even more "adventurous" life. They fought the Nazis, during or after the war got sent to Kazakhstan and various Gulag camps. Those that choose to return home from the USSR were severely attacked by the "true" Poles. Pogroms, blood libel accusations, actions provoked by both Stalinist regime and anti-communist underground…Thus the Nazis task was completed and now the survivors are proud American, Israeli, Argentinean and even British citizens. "She always refers to Germans of that era as Nazis....I note many Russians call them fascists." You are right, that what they were taught since the early days of the Comintern. Today the term is one of the most misused and overused, it is just a political epithet as it became a synonym for almost everything people do not like. |

| msge 193 2nd generation Blacks and Asians were a minority in most schools except some inner London schools. These kids learnt English and British customs. They see themselves as British and act in very British ways (obvioulsy many respect their own cultures). Yes there were occasional scuffles and tension between asians and white brits, but I very rarely experienced any conflict between blacks and whites. So the story was looking reasonably good. I have been reading some articles by George Monbiot the liberal writer. I like some of his stuff, but he said 'that there should be know such thing as patriotism. If there is no patriotism a country cannot call people to arms. No one will fight because there is no central identity.' Now this assertion got me thinking. Can humans circumvent their tribal instincts and live without the certainty of a shared identity? I really don't know, and I do get a little worried when these highly intellectual liberals start |

| pushing the boundaries of what humans may be capable of. I am reminded of John Gray (the director of Human thought) that our fanciful thinking could be a very dangerous outgrowth of Christianity, which makes it our divine right to walk on water, to achieve the impossible dream. It is true that perhaps our neural circuitry will upgrade to allow us to incorporate the whole tribe of humanity as our family, but the software is a bit limited at the moment. Humans are tribal and used to banding in small tribes. Other tribes are potentially dangerous if we can’t relate to them. So, we now have pluralism and relatavism, all views, religions are of equal merit. Okay that’s fine I understand it’s merits, it’s a gentle and kind ideology, in intent that is. It believes that there is no such thing as a hierachy, all things are the same, but this is it’s massive blind spot. It can’t see that it has created it’s own hierachy.

| the top of the hierachy. It also gets deeply upset if someone doesn’t toe it’s line i.e throwing eggs at the Nick Griffen. It’s intent is liberal, perhaps benign in nature, but is it any different from fascism. ‘It’s my way or the highway. If you don’t agree with me then you are racist and therefore scum.’ It doesn’t allow debate or dialogue, unless you are in it’s group. So, we have our poorly educated white male worker. He has been told about social mobility, but this liberal dream hasn’t worked for him. He is still at the bottom of the ladder. His friends are in the same social class and they will probably vote for labour. They have always done so, their identity is wrapped up in labour (these are the people that need to change – it’s a fundamentalist attitude to choose the same party regardless – that’s a little dig from me) |

| He won’t vote for labour, as a white male he feels he has been targeted. He knows that if he wants a job, but there are other candidates from an ethnic group Labour have encouraged the employers to give the job to the ethnic employee should their skills be comparable. Of course, the skills will be comparable, he is a low skilled worker. He also knows that economic migrants have forced the wages down. He can’t earn a lot of money, how can he feed his family. He also sees other people doing really well, they are financially well off. He feels weak and impotent, he feels left behind. Of course, he could develop himself, but this is harder for some than others. He feels that he doesn’t belong. He feels scared and unprotected. He walks in to his town and sees lots of people talking in strange languages, he can no longer identify with being English, in fact he is encouraged not to do so. This fuels his sense of feeling scared. He doesn’t feel valuable or significant. |

| So he is not going to vote for labour, he feels they have left him out to dry. Will he vote conservative? No of course not, he knows that they don’t care about the poorer people in society. They believe that people have to help themselves. He is not going to vote for the liberals, he just can’t relate to them. I mean what do they even stand for. So who is left to vote for. He votes for the BNP more in protest than with conviction. Perhaps Labour will wake up and get the message if lots of people vote for the BNP. If Labour don’t get it then he might die and fight with the BNP. What has he got to lose and plus he could feel a sense of belonging by being in a group |

| In complete agreement with 183. UK is democratic and they should be able to vote for who they like. The BNP party is a little different to the one in the 1970. Had this Labour Government done something about immigation and asilum seeks (most of whom are not being threatened in their home countries) there would be no need for BNP at least they stand up and say what thousands of those living in the UK think. That goes for first and second generation immigrants - the amount flooding in is unsustainable. |

| Exasperated mega sigh / yawn ! to all those who STILL think that successive mainstream parties have been soft on immigration - they haven't - they've been hard on LEGAL migrants.. and they can't do much about asylum seekers - as we are accountable to the EU ( Directives), Council of Europe ( ECHR ) and UN criteria for treating folk who claim Asylum. We need to get the Border Agency up and running to check folk going OUT - as well as in - to monitor visa over-stayers a lot sooner, and to be able to process asylum seekers more quickly... not an easy task- as every case is unique. BTW how can second generation immigrants flood in? If an ethnic Pakistani British citizen - born here - decides to marry a bride from Pakistan - it is NOT simply a matter of marrying her and bringing her back .... OH NO... It will cost him £1300 in fees over two years - plus he'll have to prove the Marriage is genuine and he can support her - without recourse to public funds.. |

| RE msg 203, ilc > Thats funny DC < => ilc, my father and family suffered from the Fascists (NaZi's) during the Second World War. I'm very proud to have worked for the Dutch news paper "het Parool", founded underground in 1941 - with the loss of lives of many very good young people - during the Second World War. I don't need your personal opinion of me. In this thread we are discussing the BNP. I repeat: "You're a (potential) fascist when you support, defend or sympathise with the BNP. Including the "understanding the reasons why people voted for this destructive party"." Thank you. While your country was struggling to survive - don't forget: with help from the USA - , other countries didn't have the Channel between them and NaZi Germany - these small countries had no chance. The BNP is a repeat of the worst that happened in Europe in the beginning of last century: Fascism (BNP) is evil. |

| Many Ms - as I have said to other "sensible"contributors to this forum you are wasting your time trying to convince people who are simply ignorant of the facts!! And worse still - they do not want to know the truth. |

| " He votes for the BNP more in protest than with conviction." I am afraid personally I would protest by not voting at all rather than vote BNP... |

| msge 205 "You're a (potential) fascist when you support, defend or sympathise with the BNP. Including the "understanding the reasons why people voted for this destructive party"." I would like to know more. I am curious and I am obviously missing something. How does wanting to understand how people voted for the BNP = being a fascist? Surely, if one wanted to understand how the universe worked one would want to study the planets and their motion before drawing conclusions. I think you have reacted to the word fascist in my previous text. From your reply it suggests that this word has a loaded emotional connotation for you. I am sorry that your family suffered during the 2nd world war, but so did my family and so did many British people. My town was continually bombed and tormented. By the way, I am happy to repeat what I said earlier. I find you rude and bigoted and destructive in your communication with people. |

| Dear Mark re 205 I believe you DID say "I can understand why people could vote BNP".. so I can even understand DCs reaction... !! Now you say "you WANT to understand".. that is somewhat different ;) Sure, DC, can be a provocative "git" .. but it takes all sorts and he is quite observant of "peccadilloes" - if not a little OTT in pointing them out |

| Just to put the record straight. I have never voted for the BNP nor will I. I lived for 5 years with a muslim girl and we are still good friends. I also spent 2 years with a sikh girl. end of my story |

| msge 205 It depends how you interpret the word 'understand'. I am not going to bother to look at the dictionary but in this context it might mean understand = to know and act the same way understand = to put oneself in anothers shoes so as to appreciate why one would take a particular course of action, to know the reasons, perhaps to have some sympathy |

| Hi Mark ( ILC) re msg 212 I never - for a sec- thought you would vote BNP;) ...think most of us know the meaning of "understand" - it is the use of the conditional *can* in front that changed the emphasis ! Quite sure THAT is what DC "jumped" in on.. Take Care M |

| RE msg 209, ilc > By the way, I am happy to repeat what I said earlier. I find you rude and bigoted and destructive in your communication with people. < => Just a small remark here. I don't question the right of Forum Admins to start or join a thread. But I doubt that Forum Admins should give their personal opinion about other board members in a thread. When I'd reply to or write about a Forum Admin the same way as ilovecyprus does - I'd probably get warned or banned (by ilovecyprus?). Board members and Forum Admins are not in the same position. |

| I have to make a point on here .... your vote is ment to be private .... and not open to discussion on here ... you all seem to have a lot to to say to each other ..... i have read all these comments and was shocked that you are all at each other throats .... most of you are living in a muslim country where they all stick together as they should.... sadly the reason our country is in such a mess is because people have a lot to say but are never there when they are needed to help each other ...Im proud im british ...and im ashamed at how you are all behaving on here ..... i wont come on this site again .... |

| Dear DC re msg 216 I reckon Forum Admins SHOULD be able to respond in kind... what they SHOULDN'T do is delete a member's content - whilst leaving their own in place.. I'm sure you'd join me in agreeing Mark ( ILC) is "above" that .. and personally, I saw nothing wrong in him expressing his opinion about you.. ;) |
