When neither the government nor the opposition have a clue about how to sort out immigration laws and the BNP make such radical claims about fixing the leaks (as misguided as they are), it would be easy for one to be swayed to vote for them.

Liberty is also known as the National Council for Civil Liberties. Founded in 1934, we are a cross party, non-party membership organisation
So how can anyone vote for them?

No, but you mentioned political parties and Liberty isn't one. It's a campaigning organisation. Or as Wynonie says a pressure group.

No its about voting for someone who will represent your beliefs. I didn't create the party, someone else did, and I assure you it exists.

It is important to remember just what the Tories did to the ordinary working people of this country and how we are still living with Thatcher's legacy and will be for years. So many people were consigned to the scrapheap by her policies.

All those privatisations mean that gas, electricty and phone companies put profit first, they are more interested in making money for their shareholders than charging fair prices.

knowone is telling you to vote bnp, and im not a supporter myself
Some of my closest friends have immigrated here, or their parents/grandparents have in the past and they've been born here. There was a programme on a while ago that struggled to find anyone 100% british, there was blood in most people from all over the globe, and chances are there isn't a 100% british person on this forum.

my family tree is still ongoing , as my surname will tell you my clan go back along way, but you may be right on this, as i dont know for sure
Its ok to say send away the immigrants blah blah blah, but most of you will have at least one friend who isn't british born or at least their families aren't. I think the idea of wanting to deport immigrants is an idea of the older generation, not mine, and its horrible.

i do have good friends from all walks of life, and i would never change them, foreign or not, makes no difference,
Do you deport their children with them aswell? Or do the british born children of them get to say. Do you set an age limit on that? What age do you decide a child doesnt need their mother or father if you allow them to stay if they've reached a certain age? Would it be 18? I still need my mum... 21? I reckon I'll still need her then. I reckon there are people on here alot older who will say they still need their mum.

thousands of foreign kids come here on their own and are put up by social services, usually they are 26yr old have ditched their passports(which in itself is illegal) and claim to be under 18, where are their parents who care so much for them. oh yes i have never needed my mum nor will i ever
We have foreign friends on this forum, and if I was them I'd be a bit offended by those people who are supporters of BNP, because your basically saying we dont need them as our friends, in fact we dont want them in the country at all. That labels you two faced, and it also makes accyweb look bad that there are as many BNP supporters on it as Labour.

i have no problem with immigrants, as long as its through the proper chanels and they really are in danger, but people who use and abuse the system are not welcome, (most of the human trafficers are foreign, you support this cruelty blazey as you have said you love all immigrants well shame on you for thinking young girls should be locked up and used as prostitutes).
I thought the first was a joke, but 7? i hope thats just a case of following the sheep and not what you really believe, because its disgusting.

I know the main idea behind the party refers to 'ancestors' of the country who have been here for millenia. In other words if you haven't got generations of family who have been born in the country then they dont want to protect your rights.

It was part of the programme I mentioned about the different types of race found in most peoples blood, but I cant remember the programmes name though. They proved that the BNP would have to forget about the majorities rights though as they only managed to find one person in their study with 100% british blood and I think it was either camilla parker bowles or a politician.

I know enough about the group to know what they stand for, I dont know their policy word for word.

As already said I dont follow politics so I dont know mission statements of most political parties, particularly not the BNP who only get on telly for bad reasons, I just know what each political party stands for.

If the BNP were so fantastic they wouldn't have the reputation they have. I'll be interested to see the result of the next elections but I can rest assured that there aren't quite enough idiots in the country to get them enough votes, and when all the older generation die out and there isnt as much of a grudge against the tories I believe they will overwhelm the labour party.
