Shame For Britain As BNP Win European Parliament Seats

rinf.com

Former chairman of the Neo-Nazi National Front group and current member of the fascist political party the BNP, Andrew Brons, has been elected as a member of the European Parliament for Yorkshire and the Humber.
Brons won the seat with 120,139 votes (10%).

In 1982, Brons led a National Front march through Northfield on which marchers chanted: “We’ve got to get rid of the blacks”.

This is a shame. The person who is elected says that blacks and others are inferior to the whites. The BNP says that they are survivalists, not racist.

He says that the execution of Jews was propoganda, which is false. The win in Yorkshire is indeed sad and uncomfortable for UK. It is an embarrasment for Britan and European Parliment

Like I said earlier this year and was criticized for doing so, you are going to see a lot more of this in the coming years and it has nothing to do with Obama. Things have deteriorated so badly socially and economically in Britain, Russia and certain parts of Eastern/Central Europe that these parties are filling a big void like the Nazis did in pre-WW2 Europe with platitudes and "action." France is only marginally better. On the outset it is no more shocking than a KKK sympathizer like Trent Lott being elected here (more like a tradition in some states) but with the situation over there its a powder keg. I have relatives in England and feel very sorry for them, they are screwed every way they turn.

Good points.

The world is ripe for a dictator to come to power. When you look at the economic and social conditions of the world, I think the next Dictator will be worse than Hitler.

He or she will not be as obvious as Hitler because everyone is looking for a fiery speaker. He or she will be a good speaker but very cool and pleasant.

You won't like this then................ Nick Griffith leader of the BNP is now an MEP

March of the extremists: BNP's Nick Griffin becomes MEP

The far-Right British National Party won their first ever seats in a national election last night as Labour crashed to poll humiliation. The triumph for the neo-fascist party, which will now send two MEPs to Brussels - including its leader Nick Griffin - sent shockwaves through Westminster and increased pressure on Gordon Brown.

Shameful. A sad day for Britain indeed, especially so close to the 65th anniversary of D-day when thousands died fighting the same scum we've just elected to represent us.

The low turnout (around 34% I believe) favours the fringe parties in a PR system as is used in the European elections. We can only hope that this farce will encourage more people to turn out next time if only to deny the BNP another victory.

Any government would be crazy not to take these guys out, what are they waiting for?

How can the govt take these guys out? The people have elected the BNP leaders, so it is the people's choice in these constituences.

At least under the UK party system there are parties to vote for if you need to cast a 'protest' vote, damn a 2 party system, no protest vote!

I guess you would also support the "Paedophile Party" and the "Wife Beaters Party" too. Oh well..

You are aware the BNP has numerous Jews in their party, including a very successful councillor in the South West?

The party is not Neo-Nazi, more or less similar to Mosely or Mussolini ideological platform. National Socialism was not fascism, it was, by definition extreme socialism along nationalist lines - which assuage to anti-Semitism.

Mussolini, however, was not anti-Semitic.

Who really cares about Politics these days?

If there wasn't choice then there wouldn't be any need to vote, people have different opinions and sometimes others agree with them, hence the voting system.

And the fact that the BNP hate blacks and other ethincs is no difference to the other parties that hate everyone else, Labour hates Conservative, both hate the Lib-Dems and ALL hate the public and are only serving themselves, why should the BNP be any different?

I am not embarrassed at all. I did not vote for them, would never vote for the BNP anyways, what you are seeing is protest votes from the voter disolustioned with the politicians on both sides off the channel.

We all feared that they would win seats. If Both Labour and the Tories were not so enthralled with this Mp's expenses, the BNP would have not got in.

Aha! You seem to be one of those people that supports democracy and free speech, as long as it is your party that wins?
Why would anyone vote for kiddie fiddlers or wife beaters?

There is no shame in voting for these people, after all what other choice do we have in removing the current crop of corrupt and dishonest career politicians.
You seem to be implying that we should just carry on with the same old boy network of thieves rather than elect anyone who may have views other than your own. If you want democracy then you have to be prepared to abide by the rules and not get all prissy if your party of choice doesn't win.

I'll support anyone who has the balls to stand up and say no to further immigrant intake, repatriation of immigrants found guilty of criminal offences, supports British workers and gets us out of the equally corrupt EU. Not everyone may support the same ideas but hey, that's democracy and if the majority want it then that's the way it's gonna be.

They also chose an "ethnic" candidate for an election at least once as well Times

Funny how many people seem to think it is a bad day for the country when the people democratically elect someone to office and yet put up with a Prime Minister who has never been elected by the people to that position.

Its hardly shame for britain as only around a third of british people voted.
The people that didn't vote are more enlightened than the sheep that do.

a shame that the sheep who failed to vote are the ones that will sit there and scream ` why` when things don`t happen the way they want to - a shame they didn`t use the one weapon they have.

the ones that did sent a clear message - now is the time for labour to go.

Well, this isn't the best thing I've heard today, but it could be worse, they could have more than two seats. Ah well.

In lighter news, it seems the Pirate party got a seat in Sweden.... I wish we had one here.
