BNP party political broadcast..

hampden98 we have had the same old tosh from them for years so what’s the point?

I’m not a BNP voter. For some reason racist fascism doesn’t appeal. Can’t think why?
I may vote UKIP in the European election but that’s because it’s just farce. No one can be bothered including the mainstream parties.
Who will I vote for in the next general election, hmm, lets see.
Lib Dems. Week, gutless and lying. Nope. They shot their bolt in the last general election.
Labour. Ran us into the ground and didn’t see the crash looming. Nope.
Conservative. No idea about the working man. Nope again.

Can always vote UKIP and see what being out of Europe is actually like?

To be honest I have no idea who to vote for. No one party stands out as being worthy of my vote.
I may just spoil my paper. A mute protest.

BNP and UKIP, but not many threads on Labour, Lib Dems or Conservative. I think that’s the problem.
Everyone is bored with the mainstream.

I still have the file with the list of members(BNP),browse it from time to time but do not recognize anyone I know!!

Haha!;)

You’ll be facing demands to wash your mouth out with soap, at this rate.

I know, I know but at least Key gives us all the freedom to choose who we read and who we don’t…..:dev2:

Charlie, Charlie, how dare you address the Great Panjandrum of Key Publishing in such a disrespectful way? You know that he is permitted to shout and swear as much as he likes, while the rest of the peasantry are required to “play nicely.”
Anyway, I was only allowed out of my cell to refresh my sackcloth and ashes, and clean the rust from my chains, so I’d better get back to my treadwheel.

Go and shout somewhere else Snafu – it’s not appreciated here!:(

BUT THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING OUT THERE THAT SAYS THEY HAVE BEEN CENSORED!
DON’T YOU THINK THAT IF THEY HAD BEEN CENSORED THEY WOULD HAVE RAISED HELL ABOUT IT – UNLESS THAT IS BEING CENSORED TOO, IN WHICH CASE EXPECT THIS THREAD TO BE MYSTERIOUSLY REMOVED WITHOUT EXPLANATION!

WHY DON’T YOU LOT LISTEN?

Ah yes that even handed and ultra credible publication LOL ; )

Like I said, nothing except from the Huffington Post (which isn’t a patch on how it used to be, and that’s what I told their survey – now sponsored by a bloody tea company for pity’s sake!).

Nothing!

As I’ve said often enough, free speech has never meant that that you can say what you like. The laws of libel and incitment to racial or religious hatred make sure of that.

Should the BNP broadcast have been censored? Probably not but I didn’t watch it and nor am I likely to either. Their leaflet with some rather dubious imagery was enough proof to me of their intentions. Let’s face it if the BNP ever got anywhere near the handles of power, censoring party political broadcasts would be the least of our problems.

Of course UKIP aren’t too keen on this freedom of speech thing either as events in Cambridge showed last week.

All good free publicity for the BNP, this thread. Wonder how much longer it wil run……..

The Huffington Post UK

Ah yes that even handed and ultra credible publication LOL ; )

RE 14

“enlighten – you ? In your case, waste of time !

Thank you. I trust that other observers might notice that you ignored the argument and attacked the postee.

What does that say about you and your argument if you’d rather not defend it?

Re 12

It certainly doesn’t mean ‘consequence free’. That is the problem. Now, there is always someone, somewhere, who will manufacture offence. You can absolutely rely on it.

Tony, we do not have ‘free speech’ in this country. We have conditional free speech. If you say something which a vociferous minority finds offensive, a tide of hate will surge your way. Ironic really, when one considers that a perceived ‘hate crime’ was the trigger !

Charlie @ 8 hits the bullseye.

Just because a majority believe something to be right does not make it, necessarily, right.

If over half the population said that Danny Dyer (bad British ‘action’ actor) should be strung up in Parliament Square for crimes against acting, no matter how deserved it was, should that be permitted?
And if somebody finds something offensive should you be permitted to rubbish their reasons just because you don’t take offense? Who’s ‘offensive’ do you take notice of, and whose do you rubbish? If your mother found something offended her but you don’t, do you tell her to suck it in and grow a pair, or do you take note even though your own mother is in the minority?

Do enlighten us with your wisdom, please…

I haven’t watched any of the broadcasts, I won’t be voting in the EU elections as there are no political parties that I agree with. The BNP broadcasts that I have seen before have always been crap.

‘Free speech’ does not mean ‘consequence-free speech’
