I have a question which I have been dicussing with a collegue for some months.
A friend of mine wants to vote for the BNP, but she thinks that as she was born and bred here but her parents are spanish, who have worked and lioved here for over 30 yrs, it would not been seen as correct? Or she is the type of person the BNP campaign about?
I think she seems to think that the BNP are anti anything not pure british, or am i wrong? Anyone help?

IMMIGRATION - time to say ENOUGH!
On current demographic trends, we, the native British people, will be an ethnic minority in our own country within sixty years. To ensure that this does not happen, and that the British people retain their homeland and identity, we call for an immediate halt to all further immigration, the immediate deportation of criminal and illegal immigrants, and the introduction of a system of voluntary resettlement whereby those immigrants who are legally here will be afforded the opportunity to return to their lands of ethnic origin assisted by a generous financial incentives both for individuals and for the countries in question. We will abolish the �positive discrimination� schemes that have made white Britons second-class citizens. We will also clamp down on the flood of �asylum seekers�, all of whom are either bogus or can find refuge much nearer their home countries.
EUROPE - back to British independence!
We are opposed to the Single European Currency, and support the overwhelming majority of the British people in their desire to keep the Pound and our traditional weights and measures. At the same time, we are for the best possible relationship with our European neighbours and believe that the nations of Europe should be free to trade and cooperate whenever it is mutually beneficial, though without being forced into a political and economic straitjacket - political unification. Accordingly, we stand for British withdrawal from the European Union. In place of the EU, we intend to aim towards greater national self-sufficiency, and to work to restore Britain�s family and trading ties with Australia, Canada and New Zealand, a

The BNP's racist campaigns seem a useful way of getting into communities. Walker talks about care homes, schools and regeneration. He also offers a pungent mix of nostalgia and conspiratorial claims about immigrants and Islam, from the the apocryphal Muslim taxi drivers who "**** in bottles and throw them out of cabs" to the council giving housing priority to immigrants. (This is untrue: lettings are assessed on need - people who are homeless, or in overcrowded accommodation - which is unrelated to ethnicity. Priority is given to new tenants with a local connection
