  This is a serious problem and one created by our politicians. As well as the obvious corrupt claims of elected members of parliament, there is the added feeling that there is really very little difference between the two major parties. Sadly this disenfranchisement with political parties leads to people losing faith in what democratic powers we have. As a result many will vote tactically, not vote at all or in the worst case scenario vote for extreme groups.
  
  Let them have their stand (albeit with their diluted facade) but let the church and all the rest of us make our views known as well. Rattle on about freedom of speech and the right to stand but let's be clear that ignorant supremacist attitude is actually in conflict with what makes this country great. The incorporation of other cultures, languages, and customs is what has made us British, not insulation and bigotry. I saw a member of the 'Youth BNP' (a bit too close to the 'Hitler Youth' for me!) bang on about being 'Anglo-Saxon'. He clearly didn't realise the significance of the hyphen or the fact that neither where indigenous to this island!
  
  Allow them to operate and express their ignorance, better this than force them underground. But we should all strive to keep extreme views them in their place (that place being ignorance and intolerance). I think the BNP used this ad campaign with Jesus to get back at the church. It's just plain stupid "what would Jesus do?" Well firstly I don't think he's on the voting register and secondly, I don't think he'd be voting BNP.
