Lets imagine the above is true, exactly how are a couple of BNP MPs (see Roger Philips Wales BNP organiser stating a couple of BNPs is what they are hoping for in the comments on this site: so direct from the BNP, not me making it up) will result in:
“this only leaves one party to get britain out of trouble,the B.N.P.”
How are a couple of BNP MPs going to get Britain out of trouble after the general election???
Do BNP MPs have super powers or something?
Even if your BNP organisers are wrong and the BNP do go from 0.7% of the popular vote in 2005 to enough to gain lots of MPs, they are probably only going to contest ~200 parliamentary seats out of ~650.
Roger have the BNP decided on the number of seats they’ll be contesting yet?
If the BNP won all 200 (which will NEVER happen) they still couldn’t form a government. In your wildest dreams the BNP can only become an opposition party with ZERO power to enact BNP policy. Actually at best they’d form a coalition government with Labour or Conservatives and I have a feeling neither of those parties would ever form a government with the BNP (if they did I’d never vote for Labour again)!
I’ll add IF the BNP had the widespread British support they say they do, why did they only manage 2 MEPs in the EU elections (with 6.2% of the popular vote) which uses proportional representation to decide who becomes an MEP?
With proportional representation you don’t need to gain most votes to gain some power, in theory under our general election first past the post voting system a party could have 49% of the vote and gain no MPs, under the EU elections using PR, 49% would get a party roughly half the power.
Some of you BNP supporters should buy a copy of Politics for Dummies as you haven’t got a clue how the system works.
