The BNP Versus Tony Blair/Labour Fascism and Why This Matters To All Of US.
From Think-Israel.org: This is what a Jewish organisation had to say about the British National Party last year. First I’ve seen it but still timely.
A big hat tip to BNP member
THE BRITISH NATIONAL PARTY (BNP) GOES STRAIGHT
by Robert Locke
The evolving British National Party (BNP) under the leadership of Attorney Nick Griffin for the past seven years now, is no longer recognizable as the National Front Party that it started out as. Neither does it have the baggage of its forebear: the hooliganism, acts of violence and racism that marked its predecessor as a Fascistic organization.
The BNP split off from the National Front in 1999 in which the leader “Mr. John Tyndall was ousted and replaced by Mr. Nick Griffin, a charismatic Cambridge-educated lawyer. Griffin set about reshaping the party into an organization capable of waging mainstream politics without abandoning its core convictions. The party’s core conviction has always been, in whatever incarnation, a fairly straightforward “Britain for the British” message: foreigners out, national sovereignty in.”
The BNP’s evolution can be best summed up by this one statement from the article quoted from here: “One sign of this reformed attitude towards Jews is that the BNP not only has Jewish members, but even has a Jewish officeholder: Councilor Pat Richardson, elected last year by residents of the borough of Epping Forest, just north of London.”
When it comes to anti-semitism and racism in general, there are still some party members who carry these attitudes. But so what? Here in the US, there are plenty of Democrat and Republican actual elected politicians who carry heavy racist attitudes and every once in awhile one makes a verbal slip they stumble all over themselves having to apologize for. What matters with the BNP is that the whole point of breaking away from the NF was to break away from that sort of leadership.
The BNP is against immigration, multiculturalism and the European Union. Considering what a small island nation it is to begin with, immigration is a cultural and ecological disaster but has been promoted by Tony Blair and his Labor party for the cheap labor, the same as George Bush and the Republicans have done here in the US. Cheap labor is a great incentive for business to want lots of immigration. The problem arises as the immigrants learn higher skills and make higher wages. Then more unskilled labor is wanted and the immigration piles up into overcrowding, ghettos, rampant drugs, violent crime and so on. At the same time, the Democrats here get a huge voting bloc from all these poorly educated people so they support mass immigration for political reasons. None of these “leaders” are concerned about the damage being done to their respective nations.
This is now evident all over Europe and it’s certainly becoming clear here in the US. The BNP is out to reverse this disastrous behavior, take Britain back out of the EU and clamp down drastically on immigration. Tony Blair and the Labor party, in the meantime, is perpetually harassing the BNP:
“The BNP is subject to continuous harassment by the government, which subjects it to police surveillance and other measures that are quite surprising to learn of in a democratic nation — though similar things are, of course, done in Israel to dissident parties. Arbitrary arrests of its leadership, seizures of party literature, interference with its bank accounts, and attempts to fire its members from public-sector employment are routine. This harassment may subside in future, if the party’s new-found legitimacy becomes more widely recognized, or it may not, probably depending on how much public sympathy it wins.
Nick Griffin is being re-tried (hung jury) Oct. 30th for saying “Islam is a wicked and evil faith”. For exercising Free Speech. The law is actually about racism and you can’t say anything racist. Americans who admire Tony Blair because he consented to send Britain’s tiny army to Iraq have no idea how terribly he is repressing basic freedom of speech at home. The penetration of European Union law into British law only makes things worse, based as it is on a Napoleonic tradition that lacks Anglo-American ideas about freedom of speech.”
Is there any American reading this who still wonders why the BNP is gaining popularity in England? Remember that this article comes from a Jewish news organization, and in this article they clearly support the BNP. As I do. Next time you read some claim or comment that the BNP is racist or fascist, such as from two-faced Laborites like Mark Humphrys who crawl out from under their rocks occasionally to attack those of us who want a better world, just remember the source.

Soon to be on trial for? Bit out of date there Rastaman. He was acquitted a few months back as his comments weren’t illegal under British law, the prosecution relied on trying to prove that by Islam (not a race) he meant Asian (which is). The prosecution was arbitary and biased? You are dead right!
I am not sure that the more moderate stance of Nick Griffin is just a front, he may be sincere for all I know, I prefer not to judge when I have no facts, but don’t get too carried away with support for the BNP, many of the people who support it are f* awful people who are indeed the very worst sort of racist, in the proper definition of the word, and much more to the point, would be almost as much of a threat to the sort of freedom that I, and I think you, believe in as is Islam.
I intended to post a comment on my blog tonight about your inclusion of the BNP ad but (typically) chose to go to the pub and get drunk instead. Should be there tomorrow, among the usual crap about pidgeons and stuff.

Thanks, xoggoth. I amended the timeline accordingly. I hear what you say about extremists in the BNP. We have some pretty extreme types in both our own major parties here in the US. I consider George Bush, Don Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney to be extremists and those guys are running our country! Saying that won’t make me any new friends but that’s how I see it. Not that I think the Democrats don’t have their share of freaks too, just that they aren’t the ones in charge right now.
Sometimes I positively pine away for some good old anarchy.
I’m not going to start weaing a “I love BNP” teeshirt. No problem. But I will continue be for them as long as they continue to abate the racist element and fight against Multiculturalism, the EU, immigration and Islam.

He is going on trial again on the first of november, they are retrying him (and mark collet) on the charges that produced a “hung jury” last time.

“many of the people who support it are f* awful people”
Correction Xogoth!
A few of the oldskool are f*** awful, please don’t insult me any further and at least I don’t choose to go binge-drinking down the pub and get p***ed!

Did a Google on the Griffin trial to get my facts straighter and then amended the post accordingly. Thanks.
I had the same thought about the effing awful part. I’m sure there are some outrageous types but you find those everywhere. Every barrel has a few bad apples anywhere you go. Hey, look at our government. How would you like Mark Foley working for YOU? He’s pretty f*** awful as far as I’m concerned.
I try to take everything with a grain of salt simply because very little in life is really as it appears, and we all have different viewpoints. Mine on the BNP is that it’s a progressive party that is serious about protecting England, and is working to de-radicalize its value system without losing its primary focus of restoring Britain to the British. That upsets a lot of British who, like here, are far more loyal to their own Party than they are to their country.
I hear a lot of sniveling about those awful nationalist parties. I’m all for them. International commerce is vital but national identities and colorful cultures are what make the world a wonderful place to explore, and they need to be protected. How utterly boring if all the peoples of Earth turn into one homogenous culture. Ugh!

I stand corrected, not seen that in the papers. Why the hell are they trying him again? This clearly sounds politically motivated.
I quite agree with nationalism. A culture of one’s own is a vastly important thing and I suspect we would have a much less shallow society (including the binge drinking!) if we had not been turned into a vast dormitory town of isolated communities with nothing in common. Most BNP supporters are those who simply feel ignored by the government as I have said before, but equally, nobody should be under the impression that the hard core extreme right has anything to do with a free society.

Anyone who doubts that the BNP have successfully rid themselves of their ‘extremist’ label should visit their website regularly and in particular the BNPtv section. The crowds that gather outside Leeds Crown Court on the days Griffin and Collet appear are representative of the vast majority of modern day BNP supporters. By contrast, the lefty demonstrators have hardly changed at all, calling for a perfectly legitimate political party to be banned, as you would expect from true FACISTS.
The BNP are the only hope indigenous white Britons have left. Those who still see them as racist nazi’s are allowing themselves to be misled by the MSM. A classic example being the NUJ (National Union of Journalists) who have a written rule forbidding its members from portraying the BNP in a positive light.
That is true facism!

The second show trial was a disgrace and now chancellor Gordon Brown is making noises about tightening up laws to make sure free speech is further curtailed…..in case juries keep insisting on aquitting people!
They are all very scared of the BNP aren’t they?
Perhaps its because the man in the street realises his house is burning down and decides to stamp it out before its too late.
Here in Britain we’ve smelled the smoke for ages and seen it curling under the door but have been too cowed by PC leaders to do anything.
Its got to the stage I doint care what Lefties scream at me, I’ll be voting BNP come the May elections, its horses for courses.
