Now we're being told the BNP might do well in tomorrow's local and European elections. Not that well, but they may send a member to the European
parliament - probably their grim-faced leader Nick Griffin.
Anyone with half a brain understands why people may want to protest vote. Quite right too. You'd be slightly deranged not to at least be tempted
after seeing the evidence of the last few weeks and the less-than-mediocre level at which mainstream politics is currently being conducted in Britain.
But the BNP is not a protest vote. It is a vote for fascism.

An interesting article here. Today is the day for voting in the European elections in England, and it looks possible that the BNP may take a seat.
I think the author makes a few mistakes in the way he writes, he seems to decry the nationalism of the BNP, while resorting to a little bit himself.
He glosses over a bit of history, and as a commenter there said, appears to be wearing rose tinted spectacles.
I really hope the BNP don't take a seat, I'm not a big fan of the European system myself, but that has far more to do with some of the problems in
the current system, like the way monies are distributed, and the problems of it not being democratic enough, I think if done correctly, It is a good
and necessary move.
For this reason, It's difficult for me to choose who to vote for. Normally I'd go with the Liberal Democrats, but on this issue they are a little
too pro-europe for me, but where else do I go? We've been backed into a corner here, where if we want to make a protest vote about the problems with
the system, we end up having to get into bed with fascists, or morons (UKIP).
