Just been watching the BBC news coverage of the demo, and a thing that stuck in my mind was the presumably deliberate and considered insertion of a sentence about how television programmes don't give politicians power, but voters do. Could that be part of what this current BNP question time thing is about? Is it some attempt to use the BBC to frighten people to get out and voting? Or is that just a bit of a cop out for the beeb to be able to say 'Well you viewers are the ones who voted him in, not us...'.

Personally, I'd have liked to have been able to ask him if, as the leader of a party whose campaign literature in my neck of the woods included plans to effect the removal of funding and consideration for disabled children, he recognises that the holocaust he likes to deny was heralded by the removal of the right to life from the same set of children his party wishes to marginalise.

Next time the twisted cowardly shits stand here, I'd love to think I could get out there and find ways to discredit them in the eyes of their target voters. I mean really, targetting disabled kids as a scapegoats. How low is that?

So if nothing else, thanks BBC for reminding me how much I despise the BNP.

Good man, being Scottish I always found it strange that the BNP candidates try to win votes up here (they have some influence with the Casuals and Rangers fans, Orange Lodge etc..). More bizarrely and embarassingly their leader in Scotland, Gary Raikes stays in the same town as myself, Salmond is our MSP/MP. Needless to say I'm pleased to say the he hates my guts and Aberdeenshire/Grampian/Moray almost completely ignores his comments except for the "minus a brain crowd".
