I don't always agree with what Muriel Grey has to say but just sometimes what she has to say is worth contemplating on. Quote," What would it be like if your local council was run by the British National Party? Let's say you have a complaint about inferior schooling, poor refuse collection services or pot-holed pavements, and then let's imagine that your black,Asian,Jewish or gay.How is your local councillor,a man or woman whose polices are actively and publicly against you having the right to live in your country at all,never mind enjoying equal rights,going to react to your request for help? " Unquote.

About the same as the apparatchnics do now, Muriel. Mind you aren't the BNP complaining about poor refugee collection services as well? The lady has a good point though. History has taught us that totalitarian regimes whether extreme right or left wing first deal with people whom they consider a threat to themselves like non conformist intellectuals,Kulaks or members of a racially inferior race.They then deal with the weak,mentally deficient,physically handicapped ect, ect; all in the name of nationalism and in the people's name of course.Can't see the English going down that road somehow.Mind you,look at the choice presently available in England. The old Tory party, the present new Tory party or the maybe aye,maybe naw party.Not much of a choice, is it? Maybe they should form a tripartite coalition and call themselves the Whit's in it fer me party and do away with all those expensive,not fer profit,elections?

That's why, if I lived in England, the only party I would vote for would be the Lib Dems. For no other reason than their policy on electoral reform.
