It is not enough not to be a racist you must also make very clear that
you do not welcome racists supporting or following you. By not declaring
his unease or concern about the openly hostile, racist and nasty attitudes
of many who supported him he sealed his fate. Why was it so hard for him
to say that racism and racial hatred were wrong? Or that intolerance was
a nasty vice and not a noble sentiment? That would have been enough. He
might not have escaped his sacking but he could have stayed in the Conservative
party, he could have remained within the pale, and he would have stood
an excellent chance of being its next leader instead of Margaret Thatcher.
It is a perfectly reasonable position to take to wish to limit immigration
to levels which will not be problematic and will not be likely to cause
or exacerbate tensions that already exist in a society. It is also perfectly
reasonable to declare that immigration has already exceeded prudent levels.
Such a position does not require anybody to be racist or to condone racism
it merely requires people to acknowledge that racial tension is something
which is best avoided and it has been known to exist in British society.
This is not scaremongering it is prudent statesmanship. This indeed is
the belief of many black and Asian people already in Britain, enough is
enough, if these levels are exceeded it will be difficult to prevent racist
sentiments spreading out from the hardcore of dyed-in-the-wool racists
to infect the wider community. Nobody benefits from heightened racial tension,
with the possible exception of emergency glaziers.
If Enoch Powell had declared his revulsion towards racism and intolerance
rather than seeming to suggest it was just one of those things, hey ho,
he could well have become the greatest Prime Minister Britain ever had.
Instead he allowed himself to be portrayed as a racist and a bigot and
he became the enemy of everybody who deplored racism, which included a
significant proportion of the establishment, media and political classes
of Britain.
I believe his own words, I do not think that Enoch Powell hated black
people or saw them as inferior in any way. But he pandered to racists and
did nothing to suggest that he felt disgust at their attitudes and neither
did he make any attempt to distance himself from their bigotry. Probably
his capacity to stomach bigotry and bigots played a large part in his subsequent
adoption by the Ulster Unionists. His presence on the Ulster Unionist benches
didn't do a great deal to preserve the union or the official Ulster Unionist
party but it did give Britain a chance to see his enormous intellect and
genuine passion on display on the greatest platform for political activity
known to man, the floor of the House of Commons.
he talked so much sense and look what happened to him.

Yes, he let people like you /gestures vaguely/ support him
and kissed goodbye to any chance to change anything. Racism is the kiss
of death to practical politics. You give in to racial hatred and you're
out in the wilderness for ever.
As the BNP is racist in its founding documents and constitution no other
party will ever share power with you. Ever. You're wasting your time. Racism
is a dead end.

We need immigrants who will integrate, immigrants who want to be a part
of this country not just a part of this economy.
Race is irrelevant. What matters is culture and culture need not be determined
by ancestry. I have no problem with most immigrants who have come here
but there are some who want to change this country to suit themselves
rather than finding a niche within our society. To point this out you
don't have to be racist or intolerant or illiberal. You just have to
be honest.
MartinJWillett
Black isn't British. This country is over-populated. Send 'em back!
tommytoxen
Bollocks. This country is not over-populated. The problem
is that the indigenous community has a birth rate which is too low and
a disturbingly high propensity to bugger off to live somewhere warmer (and
less Muslim) at the first opportunity they get.
Talk of sending them back or fighting them off is not
doing much to address this crisis of confidence in our own culture, values
and communities. We need to ensure that we don't surrender our land to
those who do have the desire to populate it.
MartinJWillett
We have a low birth rate because our women have the choice not only
when to have children but not to have them at all.A lower birth rate
is what the planet needs.Our island is over crowded and now multi national
not multi cultural.Every greens space,every plant and animal will be
dislodged FOREVER to house ungrateful immigrant vermin.We have to fight
and we have to fight now and I dont mean just voting BNP.
CHUNNELBOMBER
No of course you don't just mean voting BNP, you mean killing people
you don't like. I get that. I really do get that. It isn't necessary
to sugar-coat it for me, I understand that BNP supporters are vicious
psychotic bastards who are relishing the chance to kill people they hate.
At least many of them are. It's not a membership requirement as such,
you just have to be white, pay your subs and be stupid enough to want
to join. But who ever gets kicked out for being a violent racist bigot?
MartinJWillett
You could not be further from the truth.I am not a BNP member.I have
never met a BNP member yet who advocates use of extreme violence.Unlike
the ANC and Mandela who you no doubt regaurd as a hero.Did anyone criticise
Ken Livingstone for supporting terrorism?George Galloway?I bet you think
Gerry Adams and McGuiness are great?This is ethnic cleansing of the native
working class.What should we do?The Nazi's loved your sort in 1939.Have
you got a bedsheet for your window ready?
CHUNNELBOMBER
Did anybody criticize Ken Livingstone and
George Galloway for supporting terrorism? Errr. Yes. We certainly did.
Why on Earth would I support Adams or McGuinness? I'm English, not Irish
and I'm not some crazy lefty that thinks my country is by definition in
the wrong. Whether you are a paid up member of the BNP or not I don't care,
keep your money, the BNP is clearly your obsession, your trail is hardly
hidden or pretty. I don't think the Nazis did like antifascists much somehow.
MartinJWillett
More than one person uses this name.The BNP is no obsession.The
safety of myself my family and my nation is.The Nazi's like the far left
and Islam like people who wont fight.You are not a man.You dont have to
stand tall but you do have to stand to be a man.What are you going to do
white boy rely on white working class kids to protect you?You are not an
anti facist you are a collaborator.
CHUNNELBOMBER
Don't lecture me about being a man from behind a mask.
MartinJWillett
MartinJwillet.Look you fat traitorous cunt.The last thing this nation needs is faggots like you without a backbone.Now
fuck off and chatter while men do your dirty work for you!Thank fuck our
fathers where not like you or we would all be Nazi's now.Stick you head
up your arse and watch Big Brother!
CHUNNELBOMBER
People can see my face, hear my voice and read my name.
I don't talk big and hard behind a mask of anonymity.
To support the kids who used to try to beat me up as a child would
be the real treason. No Muslim has ever attacked me for being who I
am and trying to be better but people like you have: white, working
class, intolerant, envious, lacking in aspiration and vicious with
it. Any dirty "work" you do you do for your own nasty reasons,
not for me or for my causes.

You are inciting hatred by writing

Spamming BNP videos with rediculous unfounded arguments.Your personal

Any further anti-BNP comments from you on my videos will be deleted.
You are welcome to post positive comments about the BNP
It is you who is the uneducated one, by the way, not us.

Re: Sorry, wrong person, Ignore that last message
Anonymous masked one,
I'm offended. I have not been spreading malicious lies about the
BNP I have been saying the BNP is a party full of racist bigots who
will never win more than a handful of seats at an election and would
never be asked to be part of any coalition by any other party and
therefore it is a complete waste of time to vote for them. I wasn't
aware that there was such a thing as a malicious truth. Truth simply
is. That is my opinion and therefore is true, as a representation
of my opinion. What else can I offer? I am not a god.
When I say the BNP is full of racist bigots I mean that in the way
that Millwall's New Den might be said to be full of white working
class men, not suggesting that the BNP was full or that everybody
within it was a racist bigot just that if that was the kind of person
you wanted to find you could do a lot worse than look right there.
That's my opinion and I am entitled to it, this is a free country,
more or less.
No apoligy [sic] required.
Your claim that I was the uneducated one and not you would have been
significantly less amusing if you knew how to spell ridiculous.

Re: Sorry, wrong person, Ignore that last

To call all BNP supporters uneducated Thugs is an
insult.
The original message was intended at someone else, not you.
However after that shower of hate against the BNP, the same rule
applys to you; you are no longer welcome to comment on my videos and
any anti BNP comments /opinion WILL be deleted.
Your comments incite anger and racial hatred, as well as spreading
anti BNP lies.Such comments are not welcome, or civilised. You will
find that you will get the same response across the BNP community
as your sweeping anti white , predominantly anti BNP views are not
welcome nor accepted.
Your opinion isn't fact. Infact, your opinion is wrong.
Fact is, the BNP is on the rise.
Griffinite10
Can you show me where I said all BNP supporters were thugs? By the
way unless you are actually a devotee of the Thuggee cult the word
thug does not merit a capital letter.

Perhaps a course in logic would be useful to you, or critical thinking,
or indeed English. I am sure you will be able to find some courses
if you look hard. (You do at least look hard I take it, I guess I'll
just have to imagine you looking hard) I have never made any sweeping
judgements about all BNP members. None at all. Feel free to prove
me wrong.
I would also be obliged if you could indicate the shower of hate,
or even the odd isolated raindrop of hate aimed at the BNP. Disdain,
scorn and derision perhaps, but hate? No. You're not worth hate. Hate
leads to suffering. I'm sure some wrinkly coloured dude said that.
Gandhi or Yoda, some kind of alien anyway.
In what way has anything I have written, said or done been in any
way "anti white"? The interests of white people and the
BNP are not in the least bit identical. You don't get to tell me what
is or is not pro or anti white or to define the interests of the whites.
You are not in any sense a community leader still less a race leader.
As I explained in my last message my opinions are factually and truthfully
my opinions. I do not have the authority to declare opinions to be
facts. Neither do you.
If you have an imagination I ask you to try to imagine just how gutted
and ashamed I am to be banned by the BNP. It's been the highlight
of my day.
