I wonder how the fascists of the UAF will manifest their nasty, authoritarian, and elitist attitudes and behaviours if the BNP folds.
The people of the UK never needed the UAF's violence, intolerance and anti-free speech arrogance to protect them from the BNP. I've no idea why the BNP's vote has collapsed and I couldn't care less about it, but one thing is for sure - the UAF had nothing to do with it. If anything the UAF's antics probably helped the BNP with publicity.
I expect that the UAF rentamob will now concentrate on demanding our obedience on other pet issues so beloved of their type of person - for example anti-Israel posturing and panic-mongering about things like the climate and nuclear power.
