It is no surprise that BNP leader Nick Griffin receiving an invitation to appear on Question Time has caused so much controversy and hate to be thrust at the BBC. Here we have the leader of the UK's leading fascist party being given truly invaluable airtime in which to preach his message and gain a new type of follower: the non extremist nationalist. Unfortunately for the man, he managed to make so much of an arse out of himself that this seemingly facile task turned full circle. Now it seems Mr Griffin is fighting to hold onto his own party. The word is that the party don't like the way their leader reinforced the widely held beliefs that they're no more than a bunch of paki-hating, nigger-lynching anti-semites.
And all this is the truth, but the truth wasn't the point of their appearance. He was meant to blame a disassociated white middle class for the country's recession, joblessness and immigrations in order to clinch the dumb fuck working class vote. This was a serious misjudging of Question Time's key demographic. It is watched by students and that 'disassociated' white middle class who were the target of this publicity stunt. If he had been able to open his mouth for one second without putting his foot into it, he would have further fucked himself by condemning the only people who have any interest in a current affairs debate-based television programme. Something tells me that the BNP need better researchers, maybe someone who isn't so absorbed in their own 'positive racist action' to recognise audience shares for their public appearance call for a different tactic.
Now Nick Griffin managed to shoot himself in both feet so he couldn't run from his own cranial cumshot as soon as it came time to confront the bombardment of his party's fascist policy. First shot was the ever popular, "my dad's better than your dad" approach aimed towards Jack Straw, the Minister of Defence, a man with a little more of a head on his shoulder. If Griffin hadn't shot himself, I'm sure Straw could have released his own culling blow to the back of Griffin's fat fucking neck. The second shot, this one to the right foot, came with the line "I can't explain why I said the holocaust was fabricated right now". If you can't explain why you said something as controversial as sticking your dick in a ten-foot shark tank filled with a hungry, cramped Great White then you need lobotomising. In fact, you deserve the impending slaughter that will come your way.
The shot of backed up spunk to the temple of this ball of questionable shit was without doubt shot at the moment the line, " Nowadays, the Klu Klux Klan are an almost entirely non-violent organisation" left his rotten little lips. Now, when sitting next to an African American playwright who is well educated in black history this one line is enough to stop you breathing permanently. Bonnie Greer could have easily rung this piggy's neck, but didn't for some reason. I can only assume she saw just how good a job he was doing himself.
So with the potential sacking of the man who has caused much anger throughout the United Kingdom, I have some posthumous words of advice for the next man who fancies this highly sniped job.
1. Pay your researchers with more than 'white pride'. You may be able to appear in National television with an idea of who you are trying to appeal to
2. Pretend you are really looking out for the greater good, not just the preservation of a pure skin tone.
3. Keep your extremist policy to yourself until you have the majority vote. This worked for old Adolf, so take a leaf out of the king of fascism's book and do it youself.
and finally, the most important part of your positive self image promotion:
Don't employ a gang of ex- National Front skinheads as your security team. Not only does this make you look like you're trawling the streets looking for trouble every time you get snapped on the streets, but it makes people really doubt your intelligence and motives. For an organisation that tries to convince people it has nothing to do with the pro-racism skinhead movement of the 80s, you appear to employ a hell of a lot of 'em.

Racism begins with our families, parents, brothers and sisters, aunts and uncles, grandparents, people we admire, respect and love.
However, as we grow and mature we come to the realization that what we were told by our family when we were children were slanted lies base on their prejudices. We realize that most people are like ourselves and not so different and want the same things, like a home, steady work, a Medicare plan and schools for our children (if you travel you will see this). We realize that most people are of good hearts and goodwill.
This reminds me of a parable from the good book where a Levite and Priest come upon a man who fell among thieves and they both individually passed by and didn’t stop to help him.
Finally a man of another race came by, he got down from his beast, decided not to be compassionate by proxy and got down with the injured man, administered first aid, and helped the man in need.
Jesus ended up saying, this was the good man, this was the great man, because he had the capacity to project the “I” into the “thou,” and to be concerned about his fellow man.
You see, the Levite and the Priest were afraid, they asked themselves, “If I stop to help this man, what will happen to me?”
But then the Good Samaritan came by. And he reversed the question: “If I do not stop to help this man, what will happen to him?”
That’s the question before us. The question is not, “If I stop to help our fellow man (immigrant) in need, what will happen to me?” The question is, “If I do not stop to help our fellow man, what will happen to him or her?” That’s the question.
This current climate of blaming others for our woes is not new. We have had this before and we have conquered it.
Remember “Evil flourishes when good men (and women) do nothing”. Raise your voices with those of us who believe we are equal and we can win this battle again.
