....you're being very restrained Ms Zoom - very impressive

 

[Del Boy]

I have just read the whole of this thread (I know I need a life ) and I am delighted to read the wide ranging themes and discussions by members of this forum many of whom obviously do not agree with each other.

But isn't that exactly what this country is all about? The ability to discuss, argue and analyse without fear of retribution or recrimination?

Personally I would never vote for the BNP (my reasons are not important) but I would never stop any other person in this country from voting for them either. That their entry is even on the voting form speaks volumes in itself.

What I am annoyed at is not the BNP (or the people who voted for them) but the other parties on the voting form who did not listen to the electorate and go off on their own crusades ignoring what really concerns people and adapting their policies to give the electorate an outlet to express their views without having to turn to the BNP.

The other area that really annoyed me was the 60%+ who are now complaining about the results and sat on their fat arses and didn't bother to vote.

In the North West if 2,900 more people had voted for UKIP or 5,000 more voted for The Green Party the BNP would not have got in.

So who is to blame for the seats the BNP got?

BNP? No - they have a right to stand
BNP voters? No - they have a right to vote for whoever they want

Non-voters that is who!

Nail on the head was hit there
