Your Views On The BNP

    I was reading over the BNP (British Nationalist Party) website earlier, when I came across their policy on The North.
    In the long run, we wish to end the conflict in Ireland by welcoming Eire as well as Ulster as equal partners in a federation of the nations of the British Isles

    Now, I know I should take everything the BNP says with a grain of salt, but seriously, WTF?

    That said, They have some decent plans but their immigration policy (Basically closing Britain's borders and ejecting any/all Muslims - The seem to dislike them especially, there's no mention of a "Hindu takeover of Britain") leaves much to be desired. Reading over the whole website, they're somewhat like Libertas.

    They have very litte support in the UK and despite the severe recession it still appears that they will have little support come the European elections.

    they have recently sided with us irish and have embraced us, and have welcomed us to join their union after the UK pulls out of EU.

    Not an expert on BMP policys , rules or anything but they do consider the white anglo saxon (English ) and the celtic races ( Irish ,Scottish ,Welsh ) as the people who should be put first before all other non white / ethnic races , in all areas of life on these islands ie ,education , housing ,employment etc.

    That of course is viewed by many as being a racist policy .

    Indeed. On account of the fact that there are no "races" except the human race and that racialist theories involving such makey uppy things as "Celts" and "Anglo-Saxons" is accepted by science as discredited Victorian hogwash.

    Not going to happen in the UK, but similar type of parties seem to do quite well elsewhere in Europe.

    They don't like foreigners or travellers, generally want to brutalise criminals and spend most of their fantasising about "political correctness gone mad".

    They are therefore the natural party of government for AH.

    Well I am not a fan of the BMP for the same reasons I am not a fan of neo nazis but the English Scots ,Welsh N Irish and us Southern Irish brethern like to hold onto our identitys ,otherwise there would be no need to celerbrate st patricks ,st andrews and the more recently enhanced ' st georges day , now would there ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 458 ✭✭hacx


    That's more of a National identity than a racial one. I mean, any aul person can celebrate St.Patricks day, no need to be Irish for that. I mean, their being a bit retarded classing followers of the Islamic faith a race. There's Indian Muslims, African Muslims, Arab Muslims. I mean, ****. there's even English muslims (Converts, mostly).

    Indeed , and as far as I know , many other races and nationalities get involved in these events .You also have the Afro-Caribbean community who are happy to do their own thing with many white peope involved .It's good race relations to .

    No, just one. Humans. More genetic diversity inside Africa than there is between any of the ethnicities outside of it. "Race" is just a load of bollocks that racialists made up to build up their nationalisms and justify things like slavery.

    Yes, we all all one human race and even the Chinese can trace their origins back to Africa .but why are there barriars ? For instance if I am good enough and want to play football for Hollond I have to have Dutch parentage ,or become a citizen of that country .Same for a black South African . It's only a passport that say's I am this nationality ,or that nationality .I dont go round in my head thinking I am a different human being because of this passport . If your saying it should all be one big uthopia than why hasn't it happened ? Who's stopping it from happening ? BMP are only small fry in the wider scheme of things .


  • Registered Users Posts: 458 ✭✭hacx


    The "One-world" government has been the nightmare of capitalists around the world for many years now. The don't want it to happen, because the can't make money out pf it. Hence, It hasn't happened.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26,567 ✭✭✭✭Fratton Fred


    The BNP are good for laughing at, that's about all. Fortunately they don't have enough support to be of any real concern to anyone. I predict the UKIP and English Nationalist party (which supports plead cymru and the SNP) to overtake them in the upcoming elections.

    The barriers are imaginary. I've been and looked in a few places. The lines are only there on maps and not in real life. There are people like the BNP in every country imagining that the lines are real.

    As Charlie Booker puts it in the article GrahamThomas posted the link to "Every country has its own tiny enclave of frightened, disenfranchised, misguided souls clinging to their national flag, claiming they're the REAL patriots, saying everyone's out to get them." They're who's stopping it from happening really.

    Well the perfect example of that for me is NI .If ever a tiny miority of people who wanted to say to the world ' we are this and this only ,we do not want to be part of this communtiy /country (ROI) but part of this larger country (UK) Then you have the orher side saying the same thing but waving another flag .

    You must not mix these people up with the Irishman ,Englishman ,European ,etc who actully feel proud standing for their anthem and flag .That is as much as there right as it is for somebody to abuse them for doing so . There is nothing wrong with being proud of your country or were you come from .
