    IMO BNP might be scum of the earth but they are entitled to get their 1% of votes or whatever they get so long as they don't break the law. This country has got a much much bigger problem from another party called New Labour.

    I agree. Very amusing though.

    And ironic seeing how combat 18 who are to the BNP what IRA was to Sinn Fein, publish 'targets' addresses and photos

      Indeed, they are not an "illegal party" or anything like that.

      However, I can only guess that are posts on other forums from anti-bnp extremists who are sharpening their proverbial knives and getting ready to cause trouble, in whatever shape or form.
      Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

        No, it's not amusing at all.

        A while ago BBC undercover guy filmed one of BNP members saying some racist things, publishing that was certainly in the public interest, releasing a list of people who may or may not be members of a legal party is certainly not something that is in public interest - all this distract attention from Labour who are actually responsible for a lot of bad things, BNP has never done anywhere close to that and I doubt they ever will. It's like arresting small punk on a street of a city controlled by Al Capone, only in this case privacy of people breached for no good reason.

                  What's really amusing here is that you are okay with gross breach of privacy of lots of people who are legally entitled to it, yet you are not okay with me using 2 full sentences making up full first paragraph in your post? Frankly while BNP might be complete slimeballs whoever posted this information is not much better.

                  There is zero public interest in this action, I'd be suprised if they don't mount serious lawsuit and the worst of all they would be right - whoever leaked that list is an idiot because it actually makes BNP appear to be on the right side.

                    Sorry about that..I pressed "Submit" and nothing happened. So I pressed it again and some weird "Variable line not set" error message appeared, and then the post went, came back and went again...weiiiiiiird....

                      Dude, look

                      a) I am not in favour what has happened- but has happened and you may dig your head in the sand if you wish, BBC and GUARDIAN websites already carrying it and the whole UK press will tomorrow.Together they will let MILLIONS of people know. Me and the 100 or so views on here are not worth you moaning. Go write to your MP.

                      b) How on earth does a list help the BNP? was an ex-employee of theirs who they fell out with as opposed to an infiltration by AlQuaeeda
