Its easy for you to say that we should not generalise, I assume you are not part of the minority the BNP would prefer to expel from the UK. Can you imagine how that might feel to someone who is a second/ third generation immigrant who has always felt British and contributed postively to this society throughout their lives. Dont you think this policy sends out a negative message to them that they are not wanted here, just because of who their grandfather happened to be?
You also mention there are some mixed race members in the party. No 100% blacks, or asians? Why not? Did you know they are not allowed to be in the party?
Please do not say I am generalising, I know exactly what they are about, and you should too.
I did not say there are mixed race people in the bnp (although lawrence rustem is half turkish) but i was responding to you saying that bnp members are sending the message that non whites are not welcome here, what i was saying in response is that there are bnp members with mixed race children and spouses etc, do you think they want their spouses/children to feel not welcome in britain? Their own spouses and children?
Anyway, i understand why you would take this personally, but in my opinion you have mistaken this policy for something else. I was telling you not to generalise because there are many decent members who are decent people, i assume you believe (given your name) that islam as a religion isnt a great thing, does that mean every muslim is a bad person? same thing, most of the members they have now joined recently, ie when they "reformed" ie are less likely to be "bad" or "racist" people.
thats what im saying
the policy is a financial incentive to anyone who wants to leave, if this was forcible i would be at the front condemning it, but i dont see anything wrong with this. they want to try and address uk overpopulation and also the issue some immigrants might have of loyalty and identity and this is a decent way. the japanese government recently adopted the same exact measure, are they a fascist, racist body now? will you boycott japan and the japanese? I dont think this policy is ideal, but I dont think it's evil or unwelcoming.
My qualms with the bnp is that I think they are still the same they were but hiding behind this facadical reform image, ie they are lying about their policies and once in power they would change face. i might be wrong, i cant prove that im right because its an opinion. also, this helps prove my point above of many bnp members being nice but decieved people, because they like the post reform "nice" policies.
thats why you shouldnt generalise.
by the way, i know every single policy of theirs ,i have been studying their manifestos so closely over the last 5 years
also, one thing you are forgetting is that people sometimes choose the bnp out of last resort, labour/tory/lib dem look exactly the same, greens are some global green loonies, ukip are a bunch of champaign tory posh twats who have been done for corruption like the rest of them. who else is there?
again, i am not a bnp supporter, but i can empathise.
