Re: BNP 'may appear on Question Time'
I'm no expert, but as far as I can understand it, the fact that the court was adjourned to give the BNP time to implement changes, and the court did not specify that the BNP wasn't a legal political party, then at least until the 28th January (when the court reconvenes), then the BNP has all the rights and privileges of any political party. Including the right to airtime.
I would be surprised if Mr Hain didn't actually realise that.

All this debate does tend to raise one question though .If the BNP is forced to allow non indigenous races then what is the point of the party?

He was ordered to sign an undertaking that he would propose the amendment. As far as I am aware he hasn't done that yet.
The undertaking was an agreement with the high court that he would put the proposal before the EGM. As far as I am aware, as he hasn't signed the undertaking, he has not committed to do anything.

So he's not just a racist, he's a very slippery racist. I don't think that's a surprise to many people. What relevance, if any, does this have to his appearance on QT this week?

Re: BNP 'may appear on Question Time'
Only time nick griffin comes off remotely reasonable is when he is allowed to dominate and be unchallenged. Everytime he is challenged and is not able to dominate he comes across very badly and thats exactly how i expect him to come across this week on QT. Lets remember this is not a case of nick griffin being some kind of genius in a panel of idiots there will be plenty of people there to push him and expose him and if the past is anything to go by it won't be that hard.
We have to get out of this mindset that seems to have set in in this country that by banning\ignoring something it goes away or ceases to be a problem because that clearly doesn't work. Also i do not believe most who voted for the bnp are beyond reason in fact i think they feel seperated ad desperate in this country and what they want is to feel they are being listened too and taken heed of and that is something the bnp have made them feel they are capable of doing.
For too long in this country a large and growing section of our society has felt disenfranchised from the country and no longer feel part of it and that is a problem that has to be addressed by whoever wins the next election. Also those people have to realise that the bnp is merely playing on that feeling and were it to get power would do nothing beyond the cosmetic to remove the problem in fact they wouold become the most insular and non listening government the UK had ever had.
Bring the bnp out from the shadows let everyone see them and get to know them and then you will see people turn away from them because despite what they claim they do not represent the values that the people of this country hold dear and never will do.

The leader of the British National Party launched into an extraordinary tirade today against four top generals after they published an open letter warning that the good named of the Armed Forces was being "hijacked" by racist extremists.
Stung by the attack from the retired generals, including the past two heads of the Army, Nick Griffin used his party's website to accuse them of conducting illegal wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and comparing them with the German commanders tried at Nuremberg after the Second World War.
"Those Tory generals who today attacked the British National Party should remember that at the Nuremburg [sic] Trials, the politicians and generals accused of waging illegal aggressive wars were all charged — and hanged — together," he wrote.
<snip>
In his response, Mr Griffin dismissed the complaints about the use of the Spitfire as sour grapes and said that the BNP was now the party of the British squaddie.
"The Spitfire represents the British fighting spirit against Continental totalitarianism. Winston Churchill’s comments on Islam, the European Union and unrestricted Third World immigration are the same as BNP policy, and he would have been expelled from today’s Tories for those views," he said.

Re: BNP 'may appear on Question Time'
As there are claims that the latest leaked list is not genuine, the list supposedly comprises of parts of the original leaked list and new names that Griffin claims are not members.
It would be a shame if someone on the list was not a member and lost their job as a result.

Interesting, one listed 385 yards from me. He is a local business proprietor, I believe also a member of the Rotary club.
