You're not wrong to say it, and while I'd never vote for them, I would fiercely defend their right to exist as a policitical party. What fucks me off so much about the mindless 'Anti-BNP' movement is the choking lack of realisation that trying to suppress a group of people you don't agree with is the precise opposite of the democrasy they purport to righteously uphold. It's idiotic in the extreme.
Back when there was all that malarky about that ballerina who was filmed saying she supported the BNP, an Anti-BNP protest took place outside the theatre she was dancing at, which was just down the road from my office. Lots of "Ban the BNP" placards, and calls for her to be fired. I was considering going down there with a sign saying "Free Speech For Everyone" and seeing what the reaction was.
