The War on terror has provided an excuse for those in power to
use extremist rhetoric in order to feed prejudice and create / justify
BNP heartlands
The postal vote was set up in areas of potential BNP wins
The rigging of the vote is happening to convince the public that a greater good
can be acheived by means of 'stopping fascism'
it is cognitive dissonance: People automatically move to the less of the two evils
and then that situation becomes normality.
People are being encouraged to accept a 'managed democracy'
over fascism...
Putin has done this in Russia - using Oligarchs...Bombs, Chechyna
Blair is a Stalin
The use of fear of terrorism to justify blatent racism is a crime...
Blair and this system of government should GO!
he is a tyrant.

What they don't seem to have grasped is that the BNP would never have the power to introduce the tyrannical policies that Labour have and no doubt will continue to.
They make me think of King Canute sitting in Morecambe Bay.
