Kev P says..“ Any suggestion that the BNP are a legitimate political party is absurd.
They sow hatred and division wherever they go, preaching a racist, homophobic and fascist agenda.
They claim to have solutions to the problems faced by the people of this country but the truth is they rely on such problems to further their own aims and without them they would have nothing to prey on.
I understand that people are feeling let down by Labour but despite the setbacks we currently face because of this global economic crisis and a never ending barrage of negative media coverage, a lot has been achieved over the last 12 years. None more so than by our fantastic Labour MEPs in the European Parliament who have been a strong voice for the people of this region and have consistently delivered on many fronts.
I urge everyone to stand up to hatred on June 4th and vote for the party that has always been and will continue to be on the side of the working people of Liverpool and our region. The BNP do not have the answers to your problems.
Don't vote for the wrong Griffin. Make sure you vote for Theresa on June 4th.”

So I'll be voting Labour and I hope people will turn out on the day to show the BNP there's no place for them in the North West. We all need to spread the word to stop the BNP. Thanks to LC and Larry for pointing all of this out to us.”

UKIP Swindon says..“ European says..“ Oh please, I've seen some of the statements UKIP MEPs have made in Parliament, they make me ashamed to be British.” You clearly are already given your posting name. UKIP are the only moderate main stream party who are offering what 55%; of UK citizens want and that is to be out of the EU. Given the BNP's links with European Neo-Nazi groups their claims about Britain being for Britain's seems somewhat at odds with reality. Vote UKIP for a free, democratic Britain.”

That is the payback for the capitalist system that you have bought into. That was your free market choice.”

Eric The Fish says..“ 1. The BNP relies upon the old divide-and-rule tactics whilst trying to reinvent itself as no longer racist. This is why it has in the last few days amended its Discipline Manual (which was covered in the press recently). They have removed Rule #15 which states:

"BNP activists and writers should never refer to ‘black Britons’ or ‘Asian Britons’ etc, for the simple reason that such persons do not exist. These people are ‘black residents’ of the UK etc, and are no more British than an Englishman living in Hong Kong is Chinese. Collectively, foreign residents of other races should be referred to as ‘racial foreigners’, a non-pejorative term that makes clear the distinction needing to be drawn. The key in such matters is above all to maintain necessary distinctions while avoiding provocation and insult. [RULE #15]"

2. The Merseyside BNP website has links to a 'Patriot Bookstore' which has such delights as 'White Power' by George Rockwell (who was the leader of the American Nazi Party in 1950s ). The recent White History Month campaign recommended a book by the revisionist Arthur Kemp. Yes, books saying Hitler wasn't all bad should be given to our children!

3. There are considerable links between the BNP and neo-Nazi groups in Europe (e.g. NPD in Germany and Le Pen in France). Amongst such groups - as with the BNP - there are Holocaust deniers.

4. The BNP continually lie about asylum matters, giving the impression that all you need to do is land at Dover and get a free house, car and mobile phone, when this is clearly not the case. I might add that they are aided and abetted by certain tabloids.

5. The greatest threat is voter apathy as this will reduce the threshold needed by Griffin to take a seat. The major parties have, unfortunately, not helped matters. The Government's handling of the Gurkhas has been a propaganda coup for the BNP.

6. The BNP attitude towards our Capital of Culture year tells us all we need to know about the kind of society they would want and no amount of watering down of their immigration policy can hide how they would try to achieve that.

Fortunately, the BNP are not in any danger of power but they will have a platform (and funding) if they elect MEPs.

I get the sense that they will not do so well in this area but may do better in other pockets of the NW.

Stanley Street says..“ The reason there is such a low turnout in European elections here is because our U.S.-obsessed media barely bothers to even mention what is in fact a rather important event in which we Britons have VOTES that COUNT. Even the B.B.C., our state-funded “public service” broadcaster prefers to masturbate itself into a frenzy over irrelevant foreign elections (i.e., the months of hysterical coverage of every U.S. election) in which we Britons have no vote, rather than give appropriate coverage to OUR ballot to elect OUR M.E.P.s to run a world economic power with more than TWICE the population of the U.S. If for no other reason than to keep the B.N.P. Fascists and the U.K.I.P. lunatics out of power, VOTE! (Preferably for the Labour M.E.P.s who have shown their worth in office.) ”

Chris Paul says..“ Did you actually check the order the seats were won last time before writing this Larry? It cuts both ways. For BNP supporters and possible dabblers this story suggests a real prospect of victory for these Nazi-alike race-led fascists. I presume that is not the intention? And for all who are against them it is of course a call to get the vote out for any and all parties - particularly Labour and (ugh) Tory. But AFAIK Labour's third seat was not either the 8th or 9th to be allocated, AND had there been a 10th seat that too would have gone to Labour ahead of the BNP. They would have probably got the 11th seat. So if it's the same as last time they will miss getting a seat by even more. Turnout is key. We should be trying to crush them not just pip them for the 8th seat. IMO. No near misses. Crush them. ”

In the days of my youth I was a card carrying member of the Communist Party of Great Britain, in the days when Sid French was Secretary of the Surrey section of the Party, based in Colliers Wood. Later, family commitments and life in general distracted me from hardline politics and my views matured towards Social Democracy, roughly on the basis of Winston Churchill’s dictum that “Democracy is the worst form of government except for all those others that have been tried”. My hope being that we might, in our little island, manage to muddle through and have a decent life. But I had not counted on the machinations of my erstwhile comrades who have been very busy indeed. We used to talk about clandestine infiltration as being a preoccupation of the Trotskyists, but it seems the main body of the UK communist movement must have been thinking along similar lines all the while.

Have you ever wondered why the policies of the three main political parties seem to be so similar? Why when one replaces the other there is only tinkering with the system, never any really radical changes? Have you ever considered why mass immigration into this country was started in the first place, without so much as a by your leave, much less a referendum. Or why it continues unabated despite the undertakings that are given to stop to it? Do you really believe that this is down to mere ineptitude or stupidity on the part of our senior politicians? What, all of them? Because all the major politicians major parties go along with it. I think it was President Roosevelt who remarked “There are no accidents in politics”. In other words in politics everything is mapped out in advance with the most meticulous care, leaving very little to chance.

The motive is not money. At a certain level money ceases to have meaning. No, the name of the game is Power and Control. It was clear that Economic Marxism was not going to succeed in the hoped for way. So Marxist academics established “The Frankfurt School” and brainstormed the problem. What they came up with is now labelled Social Marxism. Fundamentally, the idea is to utterly smash the social and cultural fabric of a country and then rebuild it as you would like it to be. A major tool in this is immigration. Yes, a tool. I’m afraid that’s all the immigrants are. A tool to be used in what Marxists see as a higher purpose. One tool among many. Mostly, changes are achieved unnoticed, over long periods of time. The noose of control tightens around the neck of the population in tiny increments, getting them used to being obedient. Everything from traffic regulations to modification of Habeus Corpus. In Germany there is official promotion of incestuous paedophilic behaviour. In Sweden, when challenged about outrageous preferential treatment given to muslims, the Prime Minister of Sweden publicly announced that they were being very kind to muslims now in hopes that when they took control of Sweden by means of their prodigious birthrate that the muslims would be kind to the indigenous population. Eventually all this is expected to lead to civil war. It is at this point that the Marxists expect to be able to seize control.

What, you say, let a load of grubby commies seize control?! These are not the Bolshevik carpenters and plumbers of the Russian Revolution. We are talking about people who are used to wielding power and money. The Bilderberg Group and the various offshoots it has spawned, such as the Common Purpose organisation, which even has members inside our military.

And don’t think that this kind of thing is happening to the UK in isolation. It is happening all over Europe and even in America, because we are the most worthwhile targets. If they wanted easy targets they would have much less trouble with the 3rd world. Type numbersusa.org into Google and have a look at Roy Becks presentation on immigration numbers and get the flavour of how the USA is affected, and while you are watching it you might reflect upon how many parallels can be drawn for the UK.

You can now go back to being a couch potato and just put up with what life brings you, but it may be unpleasant. Or do as I am doing. I have come about a complete 180 degrees. I am a BNP member and doing what I can to stop all this stuff. I have become what my ‘Comrades’ in the old days would have called a Renegade Communist, the most hated and reviled of creatures in their book because I understand how they think and how they operate. Did I hear you say “But I’ve heard the BNP are fascists!”? Believe me, the fascists are elsewhere, these days - more like 10 Downing Street to my way of thinking! But then, it’s good Dr Goebbels style propaganda to incessantly hammer away accusing your opponent of the very kind of behaviour you are in fact guilty of yourself. If you want a very contemporary example just take a look at what Gordon Brown had the Anti-Terrorist state Police do to Damian Green, MP, because he embarrassed the government. ”

0151omski says..“ Noone has mentioned the Hope Not Hate campaign yet. Take a look online at: http://www.hopenothate.org.uk/blog/ There's a day of action planned for 16 May with both Liverpool and Manchester being centres for the campaign in the region. I'll be doing my bit along with my partner and kids as it makes my skin crawl knowing that two houses in our road displayed BNP posters during the local elections. I always remember the poem that used to be on the wall of the Trade Union Centre on Hardman Street about when they came for the Jews i said nothing, when they came for the gypsies, the Jehovah's Witnesses etc etc and when they came for me there was noone left to speak. Doing nothing is not an option. Get out there and make sure as many people as possible vote. If the turnout from the last European election is anything to go by - 13%; in Liverpool - then the BNP will only need 90,000 votes to get a seat. ”

use your vote says..“ A high turnout is likely to ensure the Bnp do not get a seat; so use your vote. However tactical anti racist voting will also keep them out. Relying on the red, yellow and blue parties to produce the right combination of votes to keep out the bnp is like rolling three dice and hoping for a double six. But if the bnp finish fifth instead of fourth then it really does make it far more likely that Nicholas Griffin will NOT be elected to the euro parliament. Go to www.stopnickgriffin.org.uk for more info.”

Kev P says..“ Because of the daft system we've lumbered ourselves with to elect our European MPs the maths works out to mean that it really will be a head to head between Theresa and Nasty Nick. For any rational person it shouldn't even be a choice.

Fat Cat says..“ If it is Essays then, here is mine. Anonymous, the former card carrying member of the Communist Party and now a BNP member presents a personal case for his about face and raises the activities of Common Purpose, the Bildeberg group and of course immigration. UKIP amongst others have a swarm of bees in their bonnets about common purpose and I think this demonstrates the ever-closer ties between the two parties over a number of issues. The popular line seems to be that Common Purpose is a communist front.

The problem with the people who present these arguments is that they are unable to differentiate between communism, fascism and capitalism. Communism is about replacing capitalism by the overthrow of the state through socialist revolution and not by peacefully voting it into office as the old Communist Party of “great” Britain believed. We know you cannot vote in a Marxist style government or the Americans will assist in your slaughter as they did in Chile (more successfully than they did in Korea and Viet Nam etc.) But you can vote in a fascist government quite easily when the capitalists decide that there is a sufficient crisis or risk. They will promote it and assist the conditions to ripen and provide you with whatever scapegoat you need to take your mind of the fact that it is their corruption, greed and desperation to deal with the crisis of production that gives rise to almost every misery during the systems inevitable periods of crisis. As each crisis becomes more severe then the severity of the way in which they rule the people is likely to increase as the periods of crisis become more frequent and intense. The polarisation of the classes. Disguised these days by pseudo Marxists as the growing underclass, where we seek sociological solutions to those pushed towards a lumpen lifestyle, surplus to requirements largely destroying themselves, and their neighbours but providing a common threat for the working people to rally together with the state machine and cheer for more repression and surveillance that will be turned upon them should they later become dispossessed, redundant or surplus to capitalisms requirements.

As we have seen, since the first Socialist revolution in 1917- and all of those that followed - as a system it has failed. It has failed in the sense that it had as it’s fundamental principal, the dictatorship of the proletariat and the revolutions began and continued in countries without a proletariat either ready for revolution or in a system that was in chaos but not ripe for a socialist revolution. Many skipped the democratic stage. After the war a pseudo socialist revolution was exported around Europe and doomed to failure amidst the inability to properly industrialise and a people who were crying out for liberation and democracy and not at that time for the ownership or control of production. These were revolutions without class-consciousness but they are now labelled and accepted by the establishment as the result of Socialism and Communism in control and as an ideology. They arose as a direct result of the various capitalists and industrialists and financial oligarchy of the world, financing and creating the conditions for Fascism and Nazism to take control and to protect their interests against the Bolshevik menace.

As there was genuine fear in Germany of a socialist uprising amongst the people after the desperate situation they were left in following the 14-18 war when the crowned heads of Europe and the Industrial Capitalists of the world set out to seize and divide between them new world markets, to break the overproduction crisis that was hurting their growing wealth and a threat to their power. To gain markets they were happy to commence the greatest bloodbath in history and those decedents who sent young boys to foreign lands to be slaughtered today still lead the tears for us each Remembrance Day. At the same time they are ready to send people to slaughter and be slaughtered for the sake of greed and the rich at any time. The troops and soldiers whom we honour and remember who are there to protect our borders and nation as they did in 1939, will happily be sacrificed by the rich to protect their greed and power and lust for increasing wealth amongst shrinking elite of key people who in reality run the world and decide upon the political process of each nation.

Why has there been no progress in the stability of capitalism since the great depression? The reason is because we in the industrialised west, most of whom no longer have any industries, have been bought off and fooled into believing that our status as workers has improved, that class is a thing of the passed. It is only a life style that has improved not your actual position and vulnerability to the system that governs us. As we know styles come and go. Our life style of consumerism and credit appears to have just gone out of fashion overnight but it was inevitable and unsustainable from the day it started. We have been bought off with free false teeth, mobile phones, plasma telly, Cable TV, designer clothes and dining out and holidays abroad. But the reality is when the crisis of capitalism re- occurs, as it inevitably must, and then this exposes the true nature of our class position. Your life and everything you have including the future of your children is at the mercy of a bankers pen. Not the MP not the prime minister but the un-elected the financial oligarchy who actually decide upon the political direction of the world by their actions in maintaining and protecting their personal acquisition of wealth form the labour you or other working people provide.

This is the failure of capitalism and it is the failure of political democracy within capitalism. Yes for long periods many can enjoy prosperity but the prosperity we enjoy in any period is at the expense of another person or nation or so-called third world. As they rise up, often into war torn unstable and despotic regimes (Mugabe being a case in point) or they grow in power to rival the west or take control of the resources we once owned. Then we either suffer as a result of no longer being able to loot their economy and enslave their people, or we destabilise those nations, arm the rival factions and sit back waiting to go in as their saviours. We create common enemies, demonise nations and peoples or religions whip up hostility and intolerance create a fear and scapegoat around immigration in preparation of going to war with those people or with our own workers if they resist. Whilst this continues, so the repression is increased at home to deal with the effects of this activity, dressed up as in the nations interest to protect us against those who mean us harm, who would destroy our way of life. A way of life that when the milk and honey is flowing, it is generally milk and honey taken from the mouths of those around the world who endure poverty and famine as their way of life.

So when groups like the BNP and other fascist organisation speak or have been given power, they are speaking on behalf of capitalism with the gloves off. They use the arguments and fears placed in our heads through the daily tabloid diet of bile and hatred to distract from the reality of a decaying crisis ridden system and steer us towards a direction that will only assist those who have created our problems being maintained in power.

What is the alternative? Better-managed Social Democracy? As we have seen, the most powerful politicians in the world are helpless in the face of the greed of the financial oligarchy. Obama, Brown, the heads of the European States, the entire world political leadership are at the mercy of the market desperate for any sign of hope. None of them have an answer. There is no answer to the crisis of capitalism, but nor is there a readiness or a desire for Socialism or Communism, certainly not at this time and certainly not in relation to any model we have seen before who described themselves as Socialist. The reality is we have reached stagnation point and this is a time of great danger, where extremes of political ideology may win the day in what are now termed western democracies. There is no organised workers movement to catch the freefall of the market or take the opportunity to make social progress. We will continue to freefall until we hit the bottom and either crawl back up leaving the dead and injured behind, whilst the survivors congratulate themselves that their house price has risen again or at some point, we will engage in direct confrontation with those who threaten our share of the world market. We will go to war.

In Britain we are still obsessed with the political posturing of our three party system and the too and fro blame for this or that policy. Wilson Social Contract Callaghan Winter of discontent, Thatcher, destruction of industry and the free market, and now New Labours failure to live up to courting business as providing a safe pair of hands for the economy. But of course, this situation was not in their hands, nor in the hands of any elected politician. The politicians at cabinet and grandee level are the servants not of the people who elected them but of the rich and powerful. Thatcher didn’t give reign to the total deregulation of financial markets on her own and it is yet another smokescreen to blame individuals, no matter how repugnant they were in the attitude. But new Labour has failed as it always would when dressing itself up in the Tory clothes. They have lost any direction they ever had and any potential for a change in the lives of ordinary people in this country was swept away when Blair took us into his murderous alliance with Bush and the interests of US capitalists.

Unfortunately we now how a three party system where you couldn’t get a razorblade between their policies as they scramble to find anything that will get a vote, and as usual in times of crisis play and foment the immigration issue. Always a winner with the ignorant and easily distracted. Where the Liberal Democrats are still just a yapping poodle with no hope of power and Cameron sounds more socialist than Brown as he attempts to get the support of the workers and middle England back on board. And he will as job losses start to grow.

This will unbelievably, almost inevitably now lead Cameron and the Conservatives into office for the next 10 years at least. In a way this is probably and tragically the only protection in terms of political democracy that we have against the far right or nazi groups growing in strength at this time, while the state still believes it can and probably will get through the immediate crisis and people will acclimatise to the daily announcement of business going to the wall and people losing their homes and livelihoods as at least it isn’t them just yet. This is also the failure of the labour movement. It is a fact that with every labour government, fascist or extreme right wing groups go on the rise. There are many reasons for this.

The perceived alienation of white working class people, the major let down of the promises broken, the failure to deliver wealth and security to the working people and the adoption of policies and activities that seek to control the workers or confine them to just the annual crumbs thrown to the Trades Unions with each wage round bargaining. In Liverpool we still have small divisions over the Hatton era and the Militant Trotskyites taking over the council back in those heady days. Those who defend the many good things that the 47 tried to do and those that condemn them as infiltrators, extremists and quite possibly, the catalyst for the rise of New Labour. But those who seek to change Labour back to what we pretend it once was a Socialist Party – clause 4 – nationalisation and the rest or who would like to see it act with the same bravado as the 47 and set about a programme that attempts to appeal to many of those who voted them in, probably delude themselves.

The 47 in a local municipality were surcharged and demonised. In a national context, on the world stage, the reality is that they would firstly never have been allowed to get into office and if they had and attempted to behave like that they would have been probably murdered by security services or the CIA. Mountbatten is alleged to have had discussions about a potential coup against the Wilson government. Does anyone out there really believe that the political democracy we live under and that we rightly cherish for the many freedoms we enjoy as a result would, when it really comes down to it allow the will of the people to elect any form of government that actually challenged the wealth of the country being owned by 1%; of the population? That the 1%; would not use their power, strength and control of the forces of repression to crush any genuine challenge.

This is why we are seeing the erosion of civil liberties, the increase in surveillance, the laughable nanny state, Jamie’s school dinners, the smoking ban, all of the attacks on the protections afforded to us by common law. It is the fascisation of the state as an alternative to open Hitlerite fascism. Creeping across the country and the western democracies due to the failure of the International Labour movements, the reactionary leadership who are the vital requirement to keep the workers away form any real class consciousness developing and to maintain the pretence that political progress and the solution to all of our problems can be delivered by career politicians who have failed to ever fundamentally challenge the real source of inequality, poverty, wage slavery and oppression, because without pools of this existing where at best we manipulate the levels of suffering. The existance of these pools is a prerequisite for the system to continue and a weapon to maintain social control or maximise profit.

It is about time that we admit the education system is flawed; degrees are worthless when anyone can pass them. The health service is creaking because our angelic nurses are starving on a fraction of American wages. Our soldiers are continually abandoned to police actions in support of corporate greed. Immigration is out of control as we accept the sick, criminal and deported elements of our laughing european neighbours. The news is full of murders of policemen, pensioners and children (often the victims of pampered paedophile monsters). Capital punishment is more than ever necessary to prevent a slide into chaos.
