I would not be surprised to see a similar uprising against the White House.

I give up. Are the protesters for or against more government involvement?

Usually with the MSM - ANTI-FASCIST PROTESTERS equals marxists and communists protesting against people who want less government and less taxes.

It’s what you get when government controls the distribution of information.

UK’s BBC defends TV platform for right-wing BNP
Thu Oct 22, 2009 2:15pm IST

By Keith Weir

LONDON (Reuters) - The BBC defended its decision to allow the leader of the right-wing British National Party (BNP) to appear on a flagship current affairs programme on Thursday, despite criticism from anti-racism groups and politicians.

Anti-racism groups were planning protests against the invitation to BNP leader Nick Griffin at the BBC’s headquarters in west London throughout the day and two senior government ministers have also criticised the appearance.

Mark Thompson, director-general of the publicly funded BBC, said the invitation to appear on the Question Time show was based on the level of support the BNP gained in the European and local elections.

Am reminded of the Monty Python sketch where John Cleese plays a BBC “newsreader”, Michael Queen. He starts his newscast and it goes on without him noticing that gunmen have broken in and kidnapped him, and his desk, and both are put into a truck which speeds along the “motorways”. At one point a woman is listening to a small transistor radio to his broadcast and looks up in surprise, as she sees the newsreader, at his desk, in the back of the truck (lorry,
as the Brits say) going by her.

Finally he gets to the “sport” results and weather and the newsreader, and his desk, are dumped off a pier into the water. “And that is the end of the news.”

I didn’t say they weren’t racist in the BNP, I said those coming out to violent attack them for their views are usually Islamic fascists

Or Communists.

I mean I hate fascism as much as anyone, but people that go around defining themselves as "anti-fascist" generally are just the other side of the same coin.

"According to its constitution, the BNP is "committed to stemming and reversing the tide of non-white immigration and to restoring, by legal changes, negotiation and consent the overwhelmingly white makeup of the British population that existed in Britain prior to 1948".[18] The BNP proposes "firm but voluntary incentives for immigrants and their descendants to return home".[19] The party also advocates the repeal of all anti-discrimination legislation, and restricts party membership to "indigenous British ethnic groups deriving from the class of ‘Indigenous Caucasian’". The BNP also accepts white immigrants that are assimilated into one of those ethnicities.[18] The BNP asserts that there are biological racial differences that determine the behaviour and character of individuals of different races, although it claims that it does not regard whites as superior to other ethnic groups,[20] and that preference for one's own ethnicity is a part of human nature.[19] Historically the BNP (including Nick Griffin) was overtly anti-Semitic; in recent history the BNP has instead focused on Islam.[21]"

I think everyone there hates the BNP, from the little old Tory church lady to a Muslim Imam to a Labor Manchester soccer player.

No anti-fascist is code for anti-muslim and anti-fascist. As in anti-government, the British government is fascist.

This sound a lot like putting a pedophile in a position of debating school policy.

Oh wait, that’s just the Obama Administration.
