Before I start, let me just say that the fuck-minded knuckle-draggers who occasionally post racist drivel on this site will find nothing of interest here. It has too many words in it for a start. Some of them prolix, pleonastic and sesquipedalean. Please go back to pursing your face up like a cow and let the smart folks deal with this stuff.




"The Way to Deal With Racism is to Clamp Down on its Victims."


Michael Howard blasted the BNP today in a devastating speech to Burnley residents, who were no doubt sitting in rapt attention. He announced:

"The BNP preaches a message of racism, intolerance and brutality that flies in the face of this country's history and heritage."

Before adding:

"And what's more, they're a bunch of fucking foreigners!"

Okay, he didn't say that, but his speech was pretty boring you know. I'm trying to make it more interesting for you. The trouble is that the BNP message does not "fly in the face" of Britain's heritage, it amplifies and distorts and exaggerates the worst elements of it. What, we never kicked out our Jews? We never tried to burn them, stone them, convert them? We never locked the Jews up in camps?

Howard attacks the BNP only to steal some of their clothing:

"He reiterated his call for a two-year moratorium on the freedom of workers to come to the UK from the 10 EU accession countries without a work permit, and repeated his insistence that all asylum seekers should have their claims assessed before they reach Britain."

Unsurprisingly, Nick Griffin was able to retort that Howard was stealing the rhetoric but not the substance. In other words, racist voters would go for the real Armani, not some pale, wishy-washy impersonation. Which is exactly why Howard's argument that the answer is "managing migration and asylum to stop extremists making capital out of the issues" is such unmitigated crap.
