I got home from work after a typical day. It was OK, and I got home in a pretty good mood. We had a barbecue, since the sun was out and it was warm. The food was delicious and I stuffed myself before crashing on the sofa to do a little digesting, while reading my newest book. This evening I have an acoustic gig in Warwick, so I needed to get myself fed early, and then I quickly came upstairs to see the news for the day on the internet and then I remembered.... the election results...

BNP Wins First Ever County Council Seats as Chairman Cautions against Over-Optimism

BNP Take Third County Council Seat

I feel physically sick.

Now that the BNP have started to focus their campaign on a simple image of "British Jobs for British Workers" with pictures of regular working men with smiling faces in front of a giant Union Jack, people are being STUPID enough to believe that this isn't a fascist party with a vicious, racist core.

If you are unaware of some of the details of the BNPs policies, here is BNP leader Nick Griffin to describe in his own words exactly what he wants.

It is SCARY because they look, speak and sound human.... OK now I am being just as bad! There is something just not quite right about their website, then I spotted it, EVERYONE is white in the group photographs, you can just feel the underlying racism and it's CREEPY!

I do not know how to combat this, in that the kind of people who are gonna vote for BNP surely are inherently unreasonable people, I do not know how to argue with someone who is a racist! As finlay said, it seems localised and I hope this is the case, but you have inspired me to go trawl the internet for some data.

Hope the gig went well smile

We have so much of the same over here. Racists, bigots, scum and criminals are rising to power in local and national elections. American voters are mainly apathetic - our voter turn-out percentages are disgraceful. Many of those who do vote just don't take the time to properly and fully examine their choices - they are sucked in by soundbites and slogans.

I hope that this terrifying trend can be reversed - on both sides of the pond.
