..and that's how you hand your freedom and soul over to those who are just as truly evil. It is the proverbial making a deal with the devil.

I would rather see the BNP gain control than a bunch of Islamists. Given a choice, I regard the Left and the Islamists as being more evil than the BNP.

This is the only way to get the "Conservatives" in the UK to actually start being conservative, namely the threat of being replaced.

Principles of Individual Rights like free speech and private property owe no allegiance to political boundaries or to temporary occupants of an office. The BNP gets the microphone. Period.

Otherwise those who decide what is and isn’t “allowed” come after me next.

Or you.

I suppose the difference is that with the BBC, since it is run by the government with money from the taxpayers, would you want your tax dollars to have these people on?.

Which is of course the problem with having government owned/operated means of information distribution.

and, as you pointed out, the government controls the media. - thusly, you have to fight harder for your voice

Right. The Left-wing, "anti-racist" Labour Party controls the government and thus the BBC. The Left's voice has no trouble being heard 24/7. This issue here is their attempt to SILENCE dissent from their agenda.

The anti-facists and anti-racists in the UK are facists and racists.

So then, step one, you see all the Islamists removed from the country. You are happy. Step two, suddenly, your Indian neighbor is deported. You are indifferent because you never really talked to him. Step three, your Jamacian neighbor is deported. Now you are getting kind of concerned because you liked watching football with him. Step four, you go to work one morning and find all your Jewish co-workers are gone.. now you are starting to worry..

..Step five, you get a knock at your door one morning from the heritage police checking on something they found in your ancestry...

You think this is extreme? It is EXACTLY what the BNP is calling for. As I said, it is selling your soul to the devil.

anti-fascist is usually their code for Muslims.

It's probably a rainbow gathering of balaclava-wearing anarchists and assorted hoodlums. The same sort we see at all the WTO protests and G8 summits.

They also lump Jews, anyone from Africa, India, Asia, or Eastern Europe in the same camp as Islam.. so yea, they are evil.

Agreed. The Labour Party and Lib Dems pander and promote Islam. The Tories are only marginally better.

The BBC is the government approved/operated/subsidized broadcasting agency in the UK.

Most definitely not government operated! Ever since Reith, successive governments (of both parties) have been irritated by the BBC's independence and have sought, mostly unsuccessfully, to curb it. The most obvious recent case was the BBC coverage of the causes of the Iraq war, particularly the David Kelly affair.

Name one other party of politician who has the guts to even talk about it in the UK?

They have a right to speak, but that doesn’t give them a right to use someone else’s microphone. Freedom of speech doesn’t automatically give you the soapbox or stage.

Bingo! How did the Nazis gain power. From exploiting the fear of Bolshevism, as justified as such fear certainly was. The anti-semitism was there, but most of the Nazi campaigns focused on eradicating Bolshevism, and since many felt that the Nazis were the only alternative to Bolshevism, that is what drove their support.
