m.c.hamster said:Don't treat this with any flippancy! 880,000 supporters managed to put an x in the box at the European elections. They will probably get about 40 seats. Bearing in mind they were a fringe party with none six years ago.
It's worrying.
Dandyman said:It's worrying in that it may "legitimise" their agenda and push the established parties even further to the right on civil liberties and the way immigration and asylum are handled. On the other hand I am confident that the sumbags will never control any Councils or achieve real political power.
looney said:"Legitimise" their agenda? Wind your neck in,Are you trying to say immigration controll is not a legitimate issue?
If they win a load of seats its a relfection of a Democratic failure of other parties to either properly debate said issues or represent what people want.
Dont know about controlling councils, as for power it depends how they get on.

Dandyman said:Their agenda is built on hatred for non-whites/"Aryans" rather than a legitimate debate about immigration in the context of both EU expansion and global markets. Equally I happy to have a debate about how asylum is handled provided it is not premised on the basis of "if their black, send 'em back" and deals with facts rather than tabloid fantasies.
