People are twats. Put a member of the BNP on Question Time and there's protesters everywhere. Why? Because the BNP are racist. Put a cabinet minister on the panel and there's?...nothing. Yet this current Government are responsible for literally hundreds of thousands of deaths from fighting two illegal wars and have caused more pain, suffering and general chaos than the BNP could every hope to aspire to.
Nick Griffin is a horrible bigot, of that there is no doubt. But in terms of British politics, he is also irrelevant...he is not capable of causing even a fraction of the damage and loss of life our current Government can achieve in a single week. Racial bigotry is abhorrent, irrational and dangerous and Nick Griffin is someone who needs to be criticised and exposed, but let's have some perspective here. That Jack Straw will no doubt attempt to claim the moral high ground over Griffin tonight is far more repulsive to me than anything you'll find in the BNP's manifesto.
