Artist's Comments

Okay, so what has this got to do with what I put up here?

Well, as anyone who lives in the UK knows, this is a SIMILARlogo to the British National Party's logo. Now I hope I won't get flack for this, but I doubt it.

The BNP are nothing but the british version of 'The National German Workers Socialist Party'-google it. But why is it here, well in my area we've recently had council elections and the BNP got in second to Labour and that disturbs me.

So I've stuck my neck out here, I 'DO NOT' approve or agree with this group and their ethics. What is happening in the UK right now is what happened in the 1930's Germany, but instead of it being the Jewish people who take the blame, it's imigrants. I'm a nationally born british citizen and I've lived my whole life in this country and don't want to see Fascism rear its head here.

I agree though the general census points towards them coming into some form of power soon if the economy subsides any further.

Yep. And that scares the shit out of me.

If they were Nazis, they'd hate Jews instead of the muslims - there are actually Jews who are members of the BNP, so how can they be Nazis?

That aside, I still don't agree with their political aims

read up on the tactics that the National Socialist German Workers Party used to get in power. Then compare that with the way the British National Party work, there's a hell of a lot of similarities.

Oh and btw, Nick Griffin was a member and former leader of the Nationa Front, which if you look into them hated Jews, Blacks and everything that wasn't a White British Person. Yes, they are Nazi's... they just disguise it better than the regular fascists out there.

Nick Griffin could have changed his mind *chuckles* but probably not. Still, even if they did get into power, if they started doing extreme acts, it would cause public outroar, and they'd never get away with it - and if they started introducing full-blown fasism, then America would get involved (As they always like to do :P) Overall, I don't realy fear the BNP, though I still hope they don't do as well in the general election than they did in the euro one

First of all, it's the "National Socialist German Workers Party". National+Socailst is where the nickname "Nazi" comes from. Get it straight.

Second, read the BNP manifesto before you spout out more of the shit you heard from the television.

For the BNP then?
Um, before you run your mouth off about what I said, the Nazi party's actual name was that, I was making a point. And I don't need to read a manifesto to know what Nick Griffin wants, he was a member and eventual leader of the National Front, a 'White Power' group, which tends to show it's eligence to nazi themes.

Don't try chatting shit with me on the BNP.

You don't have a point- only slander.
Read the actual words of these men from THEIR mouths, before you go making assumptions. And the National Front split a long time ago. One faction stayed with the more skinhead-esque NF, and the non-nazi normal patriotic members joined the BNP. And the BNP was made completely non-militaristic under Nick Griffin, eliminating any remaining memories of the NF.

And who says "chatting shit"?
