I think the more it wound somebody up that people were voting for the BNP the more they did it
Thanks for getting back so promptly Blazey, Oh I see you've changed your avater again.

I wouldn't lay too much credence in that poll, it didn't show the names of who voted what, so a lot of folk will have voted that way to Tease the thread starter, I wonder if it worked?

If you READ the thread you will see many backing up BNP.

And I haven't changed my avatar for weeks, Charlie Mansons been there for at least a month. In fact I am due for a change

Erm Blazey if you look, I was quoting lancsdave, not you it was that confusing humour thing again.

However I must agree if you haven't changed for about a month, it is well passed the time that either you put on something fresh or do what other students do and turn your clothes inside out so that they will last a couple more weeks.

Re: Mother condemns BNP's heroin leaflet

At the risk of being shot at dawn, and/or the receiving of more negative karma, I think the fact that there are many race related threads on Accy Web, predominantly around the Poles, and theyre taking jobs etc show the concerns people have.

As I've said before, I do not agree with alot of what the BNP is about, especially the extremist views that they hold, but I think its about time the Government realises that its country's people are worried, and tackle that.

I do agree with the BNP that the country needs to look after their own people as a priority with government funding. Why should we have pensioners that are struggling to keep their heating on through winter, when we are throwing money at other countries? Why, in this day and age, do we have people living on the streets and barely surviving, when we are spending god knows how many billions of pounds (and lives) on two wars that we didnt start?

I agree that the BNP should never get in power, if they did, i'd be the first on a plane, but until the Government starts to bring a bit of life into the country, they will continue to grow

The thing is with politial parties onlyme, you can't pick and choose, its not a pick and mix stall, that is why there are different political parties. If we could pick and choose the best bits from all parties, wouldn't life be grand. I have been involved in politics for long enough to know that everything the other lot are saying is not a total load of rubbish, but that is how it is portrayed, this is more common place in local politics, there are good councillors as well as poor councillors in all parties, but one thing I do know councillors earn every penny they are paid because they are delling with the general public, and you can't keep all of the people all of the time happy, you kick one and some one else limps.

People vote for the BNP for one simple reason, the main parties don't listen and have long since lost touch with the man in the street. Nobody would vote for the BNP otherwise. You can take with a pinch of salt a few votes but when they are winning council seats then you know that people are dissatisified with being ignored. No doubt some would say it's racists but there are too many voting for it to be simply dismissed like that.

I can agree with that. I was at the Area Council meeting last night and one of the Councillors had been on Council work all day from 9ish in the morning till about 9 at night when the lights went out. She told me she had nipped home for half an hour for some tea before last nights meeting.
