Standing as a UKIP MP and standing as a BNP MP are

Comment on Reasons to Vote British National Party by David.

Standing as a UKIP MP and standing as a BNP MP are going to result in a different set of questions, I expect the media will work under the assumption you hold racist views and want to remove all non-whites from Britain.

Not suggesting that’s true of you, that’s the perception I get from the media when they engage with the BNP. It’s a shame as IMO it lets the BNP off the hook with some of their dumb policies like the national service policy and owning a rifle! I find it hard to believe an ex copper would support mass gun ownership!

Reading between the lines of what you’ve wrote in your comments I get the impression you are backing the BNP not because you agree with everything they stand for (your lack of knowledge on the BNP national service policy for example suggests you’ve not understood all their policies and plans), but because after turning your back on UKIP (for legitimate reasons I’ll add) there’s only one other party that’s Eurosceptic and you can only support a Eurosceptic party.

If getting us out of Europe is your thing and you see UKIP as corrupt, BNP are your only choice, there is no other Eurosceptic party. If you’ve read my reasons for voting Labour we are to some degree in the same boat. I don’t agree with everything Labour does/plans to do, (government weakness really irritates me for example) but I agree with more of the important things to me from Labour than the other parties (I also like the Lib Dems, but they are unlikely to gain power).

So if I’m reading things correctly I do understand where you are coming from.

Maybe a discussion on Europe would be more to your strengths?

Ignoring that you appear to be planning on becoming a BNP candidate at this general election for a minute, do you agree with the BNP plan to stop immigration completely (sounds like forever) or do you prefer the UKIP plan of halting immigration for 5 years, whilst allowing in workers we need (not foreign workers to pick fruit, but doctors, dentists etc…) before considering whether to restart immigration into Britain?

Do you accept like UKIP accepts that some immigration is not only needed (skilled workers), but is also good for the country economically?

In a nutshell should we stop immigration completely (forever?) or have MUCH, MUCH better controls on who enters Britain and have it that those who do enter actually benefit the country?

I agree with the latter, we need to tighten the rules and have a system where immigration benefits the country far more than it damages it. Yes, I accept the levels of recent immigration is unsustainable and dumb, I can not understand why we need foreign workers to do menial jobs when we have 2.5 million unemployed!!!
