Does the BNP even differ much from the three main parties on its policies barring its pepperings of racism?Last edited by Zero Liability; 3 January 2014, 22:20.Comment

The BNP just want Britain to retain it's culture and identity, nothing wrong with that - anyway one of their policies is to provide a nationalised 100mb broadband service across the country, fantastic.
It's the EDL you have to worry about.Comment

So based upon this, you must think the EDL has more sound fiscal policy as their leader has not been made bankrupt?
Surely, most contractors must vote BNP for this one manifesto item alone: "The BNP will institute a policy of protectionism for the local IT industry and jobs."Comment

That was more of a jab than anything else. It is a rare politician who demonstrates much of a head for finances and economics, and isn't sold out to the point that they actually use it. Also, would one not expect an even stronger clamp down on contractors were the BNP to come to power? Labour is bad enough as it is, and the Conservatives are toothless (or very happy with the current situation, which is likelier.)
Also, regarding the stated objective of preserving Britain's identity and culture, that is all fine and good, but these are organic aspects of British society, and not something the government is really able of doing except in a very artificial sense. People have to like, want and live a particular culture for it to be preserved. Now, if you're referring to the policy of an open access welfare system with open borders not being very conducive to this, I can agree.
All political parties tout things that sound good in the abstract; it scarcely implies they possess or propose the means of actually achieving these.Last edited by Zero Liability; 3 January 2014, 23:15.Comment
