About Page
At the last election the BNP won 1 million voters and 2 MEPs. With more economic difficulties looming and a General Election in a matter of weeks, the BNP are confident of future success. The time is now to make a stand for true British values of tolerance and decency, and against the BNP’s extremism and bigotry.
The Nothing British campaign gives people that chance. Nothing British is a campaign against the politics of hate which aims to promote the British values of democracy, tolerance, fair-play and respect for one another.
We hope you will join.
What do we believe?
- We believe in standing up to the BNP’s politics of racism and intimidation. This means providing fair and balanced rebuttal of the BNP’s message, and looking at the disastrous effects their policies would have on this country
- We believe in addressing the concerns of those people who feel alienated from their society by government failures on issues like job insecurity, immigration, Europe, and religious extremism.
- We believe in reaching out to the kinds of people who are thinking of voting BNP, whether they are fed up, worried about their country or they just want to throw a stone at the government. This means explaining to people in a language they understand why Nick Griffin’s BNP stands for a nasty neo-facist ideology that has no place in modern Britain.
Failure to deal with this issue of a rise of British Nationalism could lead to racism and intolerance becoming part of the fabric of British society.
