Jesus. A fascist party won seats?--KDP3 (talk) 13:06, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Frightening. Especially that the EU will now be giving money to these morons. --24.19.50.1 (talk) 19:00, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hell must have frozen because some idiots out there gave the BNP power. These people shouldn't be allowed to vote if they are going to vote for the likes of BNP. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.147.61.24 (talkcontribs)

Almost a million people voted for them. I have lost so much faith in this country. --128.243.253.102 (talk) 20:57, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, there have been communists in the European Parliament since 1995 ... is this so much worse? --67.87.220.246 (talk) 21:06, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Do you really see no distinction between the relative moral positions of communism and fascism? --128.243.253.113 (talk) 22:12, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The difference is that those parties openly proclaim their communism. The BNP's "fascism" is a tag solely placed on them by their most intractable foes, who are, shall we say, less-than-reliable sources on such matters. 206.74.5.136 (talk) 13:48, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In the western world males are treated like second class people, that's why the BNP got in...[edit]

So we add misogynist to the derogatory labels affixed to BNP supporters? --Brian McNeil / talk 22:46, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see the reasoning here...neo-Nazis are voted in and this is related to sexism because...?--Bisected8 (talk) 22:53, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There's not much to worry about[edit]

The BNP only got in because everyone decided not to vote because of the recent scandal. They haven't really gain much more support, its just that a lot of people some how decided not voting was a valid protest (in other news, maybe I'll leave my union over my employers not giving me a pay rise)--Bisected8 (talk) 22:57, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
