British National Party

The British National Party (BNP) is the most popular extreme right wing political party in existence in Britain today.

The BNP was first founded in 1982 as a combination of members from the National Front and the British Movement - older extreme right wing political parties. It's current leader is tub-o'-lard Nick Griffin, former member of the National Front, who became party leader in 1999.

The BNP has seen increased popularity throughout the 21st century so far, due mainly to their preying on people's fear and the exploiting of tragedies. For example, following the 2005 July bombings of London, the BNP exploited the deaths of the 52 people and injuries of 700 more by printing leaflets of the carnage with the slogan; "Maybe now it's time to start listening to the BNP."

Policies
From it's founding in 1982 right up until Griffin's leadership began in 1999, the BNP was openly racist. Top party officials even go as far as to call Hitler's biography Mein Kampf their "bible."

When Nick Griffin took over in 1999, he turned the focus away from racism and to what he calls "ethno-nationalism" which is basically the same thing. This is all just a cover to get more votes, as Griffin is just as much an intolerant extremist as the rest of them, having been involved with white power marches in the early 1980s as well as being the editor of  anti-Semitic magazine The Rune.

In short, the BNP wants to:
 * Reintroduce capital punishment for paedos, terrorists and murderers,
 * Allow British citizens guns in their homes,
 * Stop mixed-race relationships, children, and happy families,
 * Make homosexuality punishable by law, putting it "back in the closet where it belongs",
 * Put a reversal on all non-white immigration into the United Kingdom.

The British National Party is also anti-Islam and against homosexuality. It's basically a neo-Nazi party, merely downplaying this in the public eye.

Hypocrisy
As with all right wing political parties, the BNP has its share of  hypocrisy.


 * The BNP is not openly anti-Semitic, although leader Nick Griffin enjoys playing the game Holocaust denial. Several members of the BNP are of Jewish ancestry.


 * The BNP is firmly set against homosexuality, yet Richard Barnbrook, the BNP representative in the London Assembly made some homoerotic porn in 1989!


 * BNP leader Nick Griffin vehemently denies any gay relationships with fellow BNP members. However, this is a lie, and he's a closet gay, just like Hitler.


 * Richard Barnbrook's fiancé was in a former relationship with some Asian guy, with whom she had a daughter. Barnbrook, previously saying that mixed-race children were "washing out the identity of this country's indigenous people" NOW says that if he and his girlfriend get married "her child will be my child." That's right. He's going to STEAL HER CHILD!

London Mayoral election, 2008
In the race for the London Mayoral election of 2008, the British National Party put forward Richard Barnbrook for election.

Campaign fliers included showing the number 30 bus from the 2005 July 7th London bombings after being blown to smithereens with the slogan "Maybe it's time to start listening to the BNP." Another popular flier had two pictures on the front, one of Britain in 1950-something with an all-white population, and another underneath with three Muslims swearing at the camera, with the slogan along the lines of "Is this what you really want?"

Unfortunately, people in the UK were stupid enough to buy into this right-wing horseshit propaganda and rather worryingly, BNP candidate Barnbrook got 5.23%, exceeding the 5% required for a candidate to sit on the London Assembly. This means that Barnbrook holds 1 of 25 seats in the London Assembly, which allows him and other members of the Assembly to scrutinise the actions of the Mayor.

It's not all bad though, when Barnbrook stood up to speak at results announcement, all the other candidates walked offstage, leaving him there by himself looking like a jackass.
