for the bnp member:
any claim you have of being a 'working class party' is total bullshit. your leader's a millionaire who started out in politics as a member of the young conservatives. you have a few other millionaire members as well, who probably made their money out of exploiting workers (like all capitalists). one of your main sources of recruitment is the conservative party (one of your councillors in huddersfield defected from the tories), the traditional enemy of the working class.
Nick Griffin is an Cambridge-educated son of a millionaire. He studied Law at Downing College, Cambridge. Nationalists often have a cursory preference for the Conservative Party, because at least the Con Party have worked to keep Britain's financial services industry a British concern. The Labour Party have more foreign donors than the Con Party, and that, in a way, illustrates the preference which nationalists sometimes have for the Cons, but both are, from the nationalist point of view, a con.
I associated with the Conservative Party for a short time, believing that they would stand up for freedom of speech more than the Labour Party. I left in 2005, disgusted by their current attitudes towards political freedom, their lack of vision and their apathy, and total adherence to free market principles. Many divergent views are still tolerated within the Con Party, and they are, in my view, less statist than the Labour Party, but that is where the appeal ends.
Why would a nationalist wish to be involved with the Con Party when all they would do is tolerate one's views and bring everything back to economics? No, there is such a thing as society and, it matters.
The days when keeping Britain's financial services industry British was a major issue are now over, because Britain will suffer with the Cons or Labour-Cons in power.
you don't recognise that the majority of immigrants and descendants of immigrants in the UK are also working class, and are being screwed by politicians and bosses, whether right or left.
Yes, I do, and so does my party. We consider this to be exploitation. Migrant workers who work for a lower wage than native-born workers to send money home are being exploited. This is very clear. We do not want British workers to have to compete with this, nor do we wish British workers to have compete with imports produced by child, prison or slave labour.
The Austrian FPOe campaigned for a total ban on imports produced by such means and do so is a nationalist policy.
those of similar ideology have, in the past, been pretty vocal about their hatred of disabled people, whether physical or mental (also see UKIP, who are like the bnp in faux-libertarian clothing).
I disagree. I believe that UKIP are a faux-nationalist grouping set up by left-wing Max Clifford, former Labour man Robert Kilroy Silk and other interest groups to split the nationalist vote. UKIP have worked hand-in-hand with the Stalinist/Zionist group 'Searchlight' to monitor potential nationalist dissent by turning over UKIP membership lists.
As for disabled people, I think that migrant workers are more important to the current crop of parties. The BNP ideal is a society like Bali, Indonesia where the infirm are not discarded into 'homes' but looked after by their local communities.
as for your politicians, they're no better than the lib-lab-con ones. in burnley, they didn't turn up to local council meetings. in calderdale, they abstained in a vote to close a school, even after promising to vote against the closure. in barking and dagenham, a couple have been committing benefit fraud, and the bnp group are on the verge of collapse.
Perhaps not better but certainly not worse! Why do you suppose that the Lib-Lab-Con are better? Democracy is a sham in this country, but we will work to improve it.

Our economic policies are a threat to the press and the establishment. This is why they show a preference for the far-left who unionise and cause rather minimal disruption to the banking system.
In the final analysis, a communist country can be bankrolled by a capitalist system anyway.
your claim that the bnp are about 'worker ownership' is balls, as they really mean 'state control', with no input form the workers. setting up your own trade union (which is flagging due to undemocratic activity on behalf of griffin and his supporters) is exactly what the nazis did, in order to give them an excuse for ostracising those in traditional and revolutionary unions.
The setting up of Credit Unions and LETS schemes is BNP local policy.
This is a possible precursor to co-operativisation of the retail and agricultural sectors and one which can be achieved by the BNP on a local level (or indeed by socialists/anarchists). The Lib-Lab-Con will never do this because they work for big business and big banking.
I sincerely believe in worker ownership, and would only work as part of a co-operative, as self-employed or in a state-owned industry (for those which require such for economy of scale or which are of particular national importance)
The BNP has a programme for this:

So, you can read all about it.
I also am hoping that the setting up of community buying co-operatives will become part of BNP local policy.
What is your view on intentional communities?
