I know a few BNP members, all of whom are nothing like Nick Griffin. I despise Griffin and think that the party would be a lot better off without him. The BNP definitely does have an element of racist idiots in its midst, and he's one of them. He's tarring every single member of that party with the same brush every time he opens his mouth, and like I said, the few members I know are all thoroughly decent people who aren't racist.
But 1 other point. When that far-right Dutch guy came over here recently and there were the Islamic protesters against him, 1 of them held up a sign that read "Sharia is the solution, freedom go to hell". It was quoted in an article about the protest. Yet that flies under the radar. Why isn't there the same level of opposition to statements like that? Just asking, because both Griffin's views and that banner are extremist views.
EDIT:
