We mustn't allow the BNP to take part in elections - they might win a seat or two.

We mustn't have free speech - the BNP might say something to offend some other fascists

"There's an amazing paranoia over it all.".

"We mustn't have free speech - the BNP might say something to offend some other fascists".

UAF would be lost if the BNP shut up shop tomorrow.

Their Yorkshire MEP, Mr Brons, actually was a member of a group that labelled itself as Nazi, the National Socialist Movement. Griffin's past as a holocaust denier is also a matter of record.
