Quik Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/jan/08/bnp-struck-off-uk-political-parties-register Ha! Either too dim to remember to fill in the annual form or couldn't scrape together the twenty five quid. Doesn't really change anything as nobody votes for them anymore but gave me a chuckle.

Mister M Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 According to Farage he's pleased that many BNP supporters now support UKIP: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/ukip/10735155/Nigel-Farage-I-am-proud-to-have-taken-a-third-of-the-BNPs-support.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vague_Boy Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 I would imagine any party leader would welcome more voters. Farage certainly needs all the help he can get after a disastrous 2015. Thankfully these far-right organizations like the BNP tend to fall into petty in-fighting and acrimony eventually. UKIP will probably go the same way in the end.

Whereas the left (ie Labour) would never lower themselves to infighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quik Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 Far left. Read their manifesto. Indeed. I flicked through their 2010 manifesto and appart from the racial bits most of it would gel with Comrade Corbyns take on things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFKvsNixon Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 So are people saying that BNP were nationalists and socialists? Where have I heard that before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well except that Corbyn and a lot of other Socialists are internationalists - but other than that.... Edited January 8, 2016 by Mister M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
