Re: [Update] BNP on Question Time this week
Maybe another voting poll would be a good idea?

Re: [Update] BNP on Question Time this week
If you take fascism more generally (authortarian, forcibly suppressing opposition etc) it does apply to a few people I know on the left of the political spectrum.

Communist states certainly have a penchant for totalitarianism...

Re: [Update] BNP on Question Time this week
BNP could be on Question Time every year and may be asked on BBC's other top political shows

Mark Thompson said that the level of public support for the far-right party meant that it was entitled to appear on a regular basis.

Best not to take it so generally and use the actual definition of the political ideology instead then. Otherwise its just akin to calling your annoying boss at work a little nazi. If you're trying to have a serious political debate, it doesn't bode well for your argument.

Re: [Update] BNP on Question Time this week
Nick has decided that he really doesn't want to be an MEP for the North-West, after his long service in that post.

BNP leader Nick Griffin has said he is going to stand in the Westminster constituency of Barking, east London, in the next general election.

Re: [Update] BNP on Question Time this week
I am not sure that is against the rules, however inadvisable that maybe, to sit in both chambers. I think he is just after the double salary and double expenses.

Re: [Update] BNP on Question Time this week
Is it possible to donate directly to a MP's campaign? Say I don't want to donate to Labour in any way but do want to donate to their candidate in Barking?

Re: [Update] BNP on Question Time this week
I would have thought that would be achievable.

They do this for leadership campaigns (remember Peter Hain?) so maybe they'll do it for elections as well. Any money left over would probably end up going to Labour.
I would suggest if you're trying to prevent Griffin from being elected, you'd be better off donating time (canvassing etc). Although bare in mind Barking/Dagenham/etc is quite BNP-sympathetic so you'll have a bit of a job convincing them otherwise.
