| Re: BNP to appear on Question Time. BBC let facists take to the stage to answer questions but they wouldn't allow an appeal message for the genocide in Gaza to be shown. Quality.

| Re: BNP to appear on Question Time. Fuckin' hell. Do any of you regularly watch Question Time? Seriously. Past participants have included Paul Heaton (from The Beautiful South) and Davina McCall.
Anyone expecting Nick Griffin to come across as a Nazi, or anything close, will be sorely disappointed. The worst thing about his inclusion in this show is that he's more likely to attract members for his party than to lose any of the current members. If anyone needs to watch what they say on this show then it is those who oppose Griffin and the BNP. Anyone shouting at Griffin or calling him a Nazi will just give him the ability to play the victim, as he'll most likely remain calm and composed throughout. So anyone who loses their composure, even for a second, runs the risk of looking less rational than Griffin. |

| Re: BNP to appear on Question Time. Bump, this is tonight. Torn between laughter and tears at the protesters who have apparently never heard of freedom of speech. The News 24 reporters haven't directly accused them of this in their questioning, but it's clear that they're trying to/want to. |

| Re: BNP to appear on Question Time. It's not about freedom of speech.
They're free to speak, people are demonstrating at the fact that the BBC are giving them a national/multi-national platform.
Not that I give a fuck.
It's a TV show.

| Re: BNP to appear on Question Time. I think people are expecting Griffin to come jack-booting onto the stage flanked by 7 foot skinheads with swastikas tattoed on their foreheads screaming obscenities and making racist comments the way the media and the protestors are going on....might be worth a watch to see the disappointed faces when he doesnt. |

| Re: BNP to appear on Question Time. One of the protestors interviewed by 'PM' on Radio 4 was saying that the BNP shouldn't be allowed on Question Time because there was a "correlation between the BNP appearing on television and racist and homophobic attacks":
1: Correlation is not causation.
2: There are probably sufficient racist and homophobic attacks that one could draw correlations with other events, such as the vernal equinox, postal strikes, and Coronation Street.
I expect record viewing figures. I am right now cooking foreign muck to eat while playing this drinking game.

Oi!
Nineteen nineties and the nazis are back
Family burnt out in an arson attack
Children lying in hospital dying of their burns
It's about time that everyone learns (to)
BASH - BASH THE FASH!
Germany in the thirties was the same
A life or death struggle - not some kind of game
Learn at least the basics of some martial art
Then you'll be ready when the aggro starts
B.N.P. scum marching on your street
They even get elected when they should get beat
Beat off the streets that belong to us
You won't stop them with chants and placards so just
First they came for the Jews
And I did nothing to help them because I was not a Jew
Then they came for the communists
And I did nothing to help them because I was not a communist
Next they came for the trade unionists
And I did nothing to help them because I was not a trade unionist
And then they came for me
And there was no one left to help me
Adolf Hitler himself said that the only way the rise of the German nazi party could have been prevented was if its
enemies had recognised it for what it was right at the start and had smashed it in its infancy with utmost force.
For once we would agree with him - waving placards and chanting at fascists through megaphones
accomplishes absolutely nothing. The only way to stop nazi scum like the B.N.P. is by physically confronting
them and literally kicking them off our streets.
Nazi falls amidst a hall of fists and feet
Stomping out the rhythm of the cable street beat
With our boots on the scumbag's head
The only good nazi is one that's dead
A.F.A. girls and boys block the fash escape route
Now we've got them cornered and they're gonna eat boot
Trying to escape but they just can't manage
Our boots rain in wreaking terrible damage

What I find ironic is their cover of Tomorrow Belongs to me, as it was written by two Jews, and Johnny Joined the Klan is set to the tune of Johnny B. Goode. |

| Re: BNP to appear on Question Time. According to Richard Bacon, "They've just finished recording and most of the show is apparently about the BNP, he's REALLY pressed on his views. Towards the end (amazingly) they talk about the Jan Moir article. Twitter can take some credit for that."

| Re: BNP to appear on Question Time. They're showing clips on News 24 now.
Just seen him make a comparison between his father and Jack Straw's father "Mine was in the Second World War. Yours was in prison."
Pressed for the relevance of this point, he basically said he was entitled to attack Straw because of how much he'd been attacked during the show. |
