BNP Nick Griffin British Legion poppy row
Nick Griffin has responded to critics about the continual and out-of-season use of the British Legion’s poppy.
In the past the Royal British Legion have asked Griffin to stop wearing the symbol of sacrifice because they are fearful of it becoming associated with fascism.
But according to Griffin’s Euro blog, he wears a poppy because it draws attention from journalists and allows him the chance to “tell them the reason.” The BNP leader said that he wears the poppy in solidarity to a group of supporters that help homeless British army veterans.
Griffin said he is angry about the way servicemen are allegedly charged to watch televison and would stop wearing his poppy once the government ends its “disgraceful” treatment of British servicemen.
We believe that the BNP are cynically using the poppy to help promote their nasty brand of politics, that they are exploiting the warm feelings that the public have for our brave members of the Armed Forces and that politicians of all parties should celebrate their pride in Britain’s military with a bit more gusto so the BNP can’t corner the market in patriotism.

Baroness Scotland, the left and illegal immigration
One of the arguments used by the Left is that discussions about immigration are cooked up by a xenophobic right-wing press and ambitious politicians blowing a racist dog-whistle.
Is that really plausible when the Attorney General employs an illegal immigrant as housekeeper who used a simple paper-work trick to fool the very person who enacted legislation supposed to strengthen immigration controls?
We give extremists like the BNP and the English Defence League an open goal when we refuse to discuss these problems.

A BNP councillor has been made vice-chair of committe at Redbridge Town Hall.
Other councillors are furious about the decision to make BNP member Julian Leppert deputy chairman of the “Cycling Liason Committee”.
A tiny example of how the BNP are weaving their way into the fabric of British political life.

Sam Pauli – Would you mind explaining how Nick Griffin is being hypocritical by wearing a poppy?
The article is shallow propagandist crap. Is it suggested that Nick Griffin refrains from wearing the poppy? Do people actually think Tory, Labour and Liberal politicians wear poppies because they actually care about soldiers? If they did care then they wouldn’t send them on un-winnable imperialist wars. At least Griffin is consistent in that he and the BNP are demanding an immediate withdrawal from the Middle East and no more indulging in foreign wars with which we have no business. It’s highly suspicious how the Left are not attacking the government for it’s disasterous military interventions.

Well as long as Nick paid for his poppy & doesn’t cheat by using the same one year after year!
The Red Nose lot change their design every year to stop that sort of showboating but you still get some car owners who have it on the front of their cars for months on end.

“BNP Councillor made vice-chair of Cycling Liason Committee”.
I feel sure he won’t make a demand for all white bicycles or discriminate against uni-cycles or tricycles.
But if he does I am sure you will let us know.

Funny you should say that, as down here they paint white lines on the roads for cycle lanes but that doesn’t just apply to Redbridge.
