On speaking to him, he frequently interupted with his 'manifesto'. His argument seemed largley around 'not being afraid to be English'.

Is this indicative of the times ahead?
Most people are keen to conform, and love to feel their views are in step with the majority. For now, liberals in places like the BBC and teachers in classroom can just about hold the line in claiming that extreme views are a minority.
But those liberals would be stupid to forget that a consensus can change like the weather, if conditions dictate, and most people aren't brave enough or in many cases satisfied enough with the status quo to resist a change even to extreme views, especially as it doesn't all happen at once and each step seems eminently sensible.
An awful lot of young people these days are getting very fed up and disillusioned at being unable to afford a house large enough to bring up a family, or even to find a job, and much of the reason for that is excessive immigration over the last ten years.
Look at how pissed off the public is with MPs expenses. But that's a trifling issue compared with Labour's deliberate gerrymandering policy of letting foreigners in literally by the million solely for their votes, and screwing up the prospects of millions of young people (indigenous and former immigrants) in the process. I'd hate to be around when the penny finally drops.Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ hereComment

Perhaps the BBC and liberals are right, according to the National Association of Muslim Police the biggest terrorist threat in the UK is not from Islamist terrorists but from right wing white supremacist terrorists like the BNP.

It could be the young man in Suityou's pub could pose a bigger threat to Britain than either Osama Bin Laden or Adolf Hitler.Comment
