Default british national party

Do people agree with me that the rise in popularity of the British National Party is a good thing which can be of benefit to the british people.

In the way that it brings our democratic problems to light, but I'd rather they didn't exist. Racists, plain and simple.

You're really taking the negative view on this Billy when it's actually a good thing. Like most island populations, the British Isles have substantially benefited from the many, however unwelcome at the time, contributions to the somewhat stagnant gene pool over the centuries. Or did you think the red hair and Roman noses were home grown as well? In my experience, some of the more remote areas could have benefited from a bit more of the same, but then what backwater doesn't have a bit of inbreeding? Just to review, in human genetics it's generally considered a distinct negative when the family tree only has a couple branches low down on the trunk.

Remember, the origin of the current UK immigrants is mostly a bit of colonial hangover. When a country occupies distant lands, it becomes inextricably linked with the people of that land, or at least the ones it neglects to kill in the transaction. It's just the way it is, it happens in the US as well. Good grief, who would have thought all those troublesome slaves would just hang around once they were free to swim back to their non-specific and completely undocumented origins in Africa from whence their ancestors were kidnapped...?

It came as a real surprise to me that the same big tough peckerwoods in the US that were gung ho for a big 'ol war in Vietnam whined like sniveling little girls when a couple million Vietnamese decided it would be nice to come over and live next door to them. They seemed bummed that their new neighbors worked harder and took jobs from the lazy and slow of wit.

Look on the bright side Sunshine, our current joint US/Brit adventures will assure us an inexhaustible supply of Afghani and Iraqi neighbors for generations to come. After all, it's simply the price one pays for global domination, and really quite a bargain. Just think of all the folks we got to kill and exploit for fun and profit, and I think you'll agree it's a small price to pay.

The fact of the matter is that the UK needs immigrants. We have insufficient numbers of Doctors, Teachers etc and we aren't producing them at a fast enough rate. The idea that they simply come over to the UK to claim benefit is rubbish spread by the Sun and the Mail. If they wanted to claim benefits they'd do it in their own country - they're looking for jobs.

By 2020 the UK population will start to fall. Besides nearly all inhabitants of the UK were immigrants at some point - Normans, Saxons, Vikings, Jutes etc. So now define 'native.' You see what I mean? Xenophobes really have no place in modern society - boundaries of states are becoming less and less defined, I have no wish to see Britain isolated which is what the BNP are advocating.

The crux of the argument is we need immigrants and they need us. The only people who will fear anything are those who read the lies sprouted by the British tabloids.

BNP - er.... no thanks

Default A Better Britain

Oh yes we need the foreigners because all the British people have jobs don’t they. Well my friends the flood gates are open and there is only 1 political party that will close us off from Europe. It’s not the Labor party or the Liberal Democrats or even you’re beloved BNP. No it’s a new radical party whose name I can not disclose at this time, the only party that can bring a brighter tomorrow. The problem with Britain is that it’s full of people who can’t be bothered to get jobs because they are too busy sponging off of the government, off of your taxes.

First we need to get rid of all the foreigners who are not in skilled jobs like

Secondly open up the mines and get everyone who is unemployed back down them. Unfortunately they will be working for free and the only way out of there is to find themselves a real job and start paying taxes again.

Thirdly we need to bring the British Empire back to its former glory

Amen, this country really needs to rid itself of this Xenophobic 'Empire' mindset.

Fed up with right wingers moaning about how foreigners nick their jobs. No they don't. They just do it better and work harder. If you get two blokes coming to you for the same job, both speak english, one is say Slovakian and has a Degree and the other is English and dropped out after A-levels which one are you gonna pick? The answer is so obvious I'm not gonna state it. The fact is if there's someone who can do the job better than you then they deserve it regardless of their nationality.

The thing that really gets my goat about parties like the BNP is that they want immigrants paid less and then complain about them 'taking our jobs.' The fact is that if companies have to pay the same to everyone then their incentive to hire immigrants is reduced - there's no financial incentive on the wage expenditure front.

If people spent less time moaning and got their arses in gear many would find themselves far better off. In conclusion, the economy cannot run without immigrants, they do many of the jobs we don't want to, some are doctors, nurses and teachers - people we need. The fact is that you cannot discriminate about allowing someone to work just because there is lower demand for their job. The crucial word here is 'work.' People don't come here to claim benefits, they come here to work.

Ok first of all the BNP is not against skilled people who can contribute to our country,on the contrary we beleive that if people are hard working and law abiding then this is fine by us.
Secondly I would like to know who this so called radical new party is as democracy needs people with conviction. I look forward to you giving us the answeres.
