So almost no-one agreed with Nick – and he doesn’t understand why?

It has certainly been a bad week for Nick Griffin. The party polled badly in the General Election, with Griffin’s much-hyped bid to win Barking constituency ending in a poor third place. The BNP’s already tiny local council base took a pounding, with total wipe-out in Barking & Dagenham, a council they hoped to control. [...]

Nick Griffin: wary of the issues and scared of the LibDems

It’s not like Nick Griffin to shy away from publicity. His reaction to any possibility of a flicker of spotlight is to run towards it, maximising the impact of his message of hate. But it seems that the BNP leader is now revealing a reticent side to his personality. Today’s London edition of the BBC’s [...]

At the time of the furore over Nick Griffin’s appearance on Question Time, I made it clear that I believed that no platform was not a solution to the BNP and other fascist parties. I was surprised how many people, particularly members of the Labour party, believed that free speech should be denied to legal [...]

Today’s Independent brings the news that a far-right activist linked to the murder of a prominent ANC activist, is one of a number of white South Africans who are helping the British National Party. Kemp seems happy enough to talk about himself as a South African and about other white South Africans. But surely this would [...]

You would have thought that the government had enough to do, sorting out the economy, taking care of the Gurkhas and reforming MPs expenses. But no: they want to take over the beautiful game. Today’s Times carries the news that Culture Secretary and Everton supporter Andy Burnham wants English clubs who qualify for the Champions [...]

Cash for medals

The Sun and the Telegraph have both commented on the BNP selling replica Victoria Cross medals for £12. It’s not illegal, although the Ministry of Defence has condemned the sale as “an insult to both he Queen and our brave personnel“. The problem is that ‘fake’ or replica VCs are already sold by the National [...]

Data loss

This blog suffered a catastrophic loss of data at the end of 2009. I am restoring as many posts as possible as time allow, but comments are missing.
