23 - The British National Party

A friend of mine living in Horsham, UK, was talking to me about the British National Party earlier today. I went online to find out more about the BNP and it is basically a whites-only political party in the United Kingdom. To learn about their opinions and beliefs, have a listen of what Phill Edwards, the Press Chief of the BNP, has to say in the video below:



Brites for whites! Brites for whites!

According to Edwards, "black kids are going to grow up dysfunctional, low IQ, low achievers that drain our welfare benefits and the prison system and probably go and mug you." What ridiculous bullshit. As the lady in the video pointed out, a white child is just as likely to grow up to be a criminal as a black child is. It's no wonder that the BNP have had their freedom of speech moderated carefully in the media.

Wikipedia says, "the BNP requires that all members must be members of the "Indigenous Caucasian" racial group." In addition to the blatantly obvious prejudice against blacks, the BNP also go against homosexuality, interracial marriages/babies, and the immigration of Indians, Hispanics and other people belonging to different racial groups. The BNP also oppose the immigration of Muslims into the UK, and the BNP also support antisemiticism (prejudice against Jews). They are in favor of corporal punishment, capital punishment and compulsory military service. Basically, they favor the pain and killing of people (but they spare animals as the BNP are supporters of animal rights). In all, I think the British National Party is quite a poor disgraceful excuse for a party. Perhaps it is just the Press Chief that is so rude, but the whole damn party sure sounds racist to me. My favorite line was: "I mean, for instance, to put it crudely, there's no black Mozart, is there? There's no black Dickens." Wow.

As my friend kindly point out for me, the BNP was just in the news today because a complete list of all the party's members was disclosed this morning by a former employee. The BNP see it as a violation of their human rights, and it has been told that should they get power in the future, they will attempt to gradually scrap the whole idea of human rights law, thus enabling them to unjustly deport all UK immigrants and put extreme pressure on racial/religious minorites to leave. Thankfully, they only receive around 1% of the votes in general elections, and now that the full membership list has been made public, it is highly likely that workers will lose their jobs for associating themselves with such backward politics, and therefore lose money to spend on impressing the people with their campaign.
