Comment on BNP Manifesto 2010 : British National Party Key Pledges by stuart.

Hi,

In my post I didn’t mention a single bnp policy. So which policy in particular was I defending?

The BNP though have stated how they will pay for it. I think they had worked out savings of 80billion pounds.

That’s what they say, can any of us disprove it? and is that any different from any other party saying… yeah we’re going to do this..that…this etc.

You may not agree with their policies, but are their maths any different from any other political party (when coming up with figures etc)

You said that the BNP have no ideas about economics. How does that differ from any political party?

1. The BNP want to give £150 pw to pensioners, they have no idea how much this is going to cost or where the money is coming from to pay for it, by lower estimate of the cost of this is £10 billion per year (we have a higher population of pensioners than anyone else), then you have to consider the already black hole we have in the pension pot, the BNP will be adding to it.

have to be honest – if I was a pensioner. I’d be voting for the BNP cause of a couple of things.
1. I might not live long, so lets enjoy life.

2. Maglev trains, this is going to cost an estimated £2 billion, and we will need to buy the tech from China who the BNP want to restrict trade with.

is this any different from the high speed network the other parties are saying they are going to build. Where are they going to get the money from? If you restrict certain goods doesn’t mean that the Chinese would not want to sell their tech?? after all its money to them….and if they didn’t then somebody else in the world would? Supply and Demand I guess….

3. The BNP claim to want to create local government, yet the manifesto is full of a bigger state and a bigger cost to run that state.

I’ll have a look through that one…

4. The BNP defence policy will also cost a few 100 million to impliment, i.e. the closing of Germany, the costs involved are as follows:
a. Relocation of all the troops (housing/schooling etc)
b. Replacing all the training facilities that Germany has.

1. how many soldiers do we have in Germany? you do realise that the germans do not want us there.We already have bases in this country with houses… so they would relocate here? I know this cause my dad was in the RAF for years.
Finally, How much money is it costing us to keep our soldiers there?

5. Setting up the ‘Penal’ Colony, the islands are virtually un inhabitable, so we need to move all the materials required to build it, then build it, then staff it, then all the costs of shipping the Prisoners back and forth, we are talking a shit load of money.

Use the prisoners to build it. better than having them stuck in a cell doing nothing.
The prisoners could then learn a trade…
If its on a island then I guess they have no chance of escaping. We all ready have open prisons… so it could work well..
