BNP scum take seat on barking & Dagenham Council
The openly-racist British National party last night won its first council seat in the capital since 1993, with a landslide victory in an east London borough.
In a byelection last night, the far-right party's candidate, Daniel Kelley, gained from Labour with a 470 majority at Barking and Dagenham Council's Goresbrook ward. The BNP had not fought the seat in the borough's last polls in 2002.

Remember, you don't get to pick what issues voters care about, they do. It doesn't matter one iota your judgement about where their true interests lie, they get to decide that. So better find out, what are these people concerned about, what problems do they want solved, and what are YOUR solutions.
And those of you who imagine that you should just go in there and "do something" -- you mean you DON'T believe those voters have the right to make their own (perhaps stupid) decisions? Well you better drop that attitude fast if you expect them to listen to you. Anybody came around me all high and mighty like he knew best what was in my own interest, he knew better than I did what I wanted, and I'd be mighty quick to tell that person to go jump in a lake. Wouldn't you? Well why do you expect these folks who chose a BNP rep to be any different.

Providing they do not involve pandering to the Nazis own agenda I am prepared to give them a go, but I think you need to be a bit more specific.
