Chilling evidence, if we needed it, of the rise of the far right here in Britain. The BNP may be in tatters after losing its leader and only Euro MEP but coming right up behind are this awful lot.

Maybe Andy, but this kind of thing has been brought on by the age we now live in, where a person feels it necessary to excuse themselves first before they make a statement, just in case someone happens to show offence at what that person said.

I am sure that mikey is more than capable of responding on his own behalf, but in the mean time, I have to say that I have not noticed mikey 'shoving' any views anywhere, or advising that people who don;t agree with him are either racist and / or xenophobic.
But even if that were true, the perceived extreme views of one side of the political spectrum does not really mean that an opposing extremist group formation is the answer to the problem.

Haha! That's priceless!"
My post was meant in all sincerity - if, as you perceive, I have missed mikey's posts 'shoving' his views - I will endevour not to miss any more.

That may also be so AOG, but the way to conteract it is to state your opinion, and be willing to defend it, if challeneged.
An opinion that needs to be prefaced with an apology, either for holding or expressing it, is not worth holding or expressing in my opinion - it invites people to perceive that you don't really believe what you are saying.

Love the way some try to say that they have no voice. We live in a democracy. If the majority of Britons support right wing philosophies, then we would have seen massive numbers of BNP coulncillors returned at the most recent by-elections.
We would also see a number of BNP MPs.
We have zero BNP MPs.
The reason? Because most voters are left of centre or right of centre.
It's the same reason why we have no MPs from the Communist Party.
Is any of what I have written factually incorrect?
