Guest Hacienda Posted 26 November, 2008 Share Posted 26 November, 2008 I dislike the Liberals more than the Labour as at least the Labour lot have an opinion. Fair point and one I believe Bungle will be replying to later. I must ay though that Vince Cable makes the Labour and Tory finance teams look like a GCSE economics class.

Guest Hacienda Posted 26 November, 2008 Share Posted 26 November, 2008 and how many coloured people were in the Labour party at that time?

Guest Hacienda Posted 26 November, 2008 Share Posted 26 November, 2008 (edited) Nobody can question the BNP's rise in popularity However, I think the question why is very deep and not at all obvious I'm adamant we are not a racist country, yet the issues leading to their increased popularity appears to be one which many posters wish to avoid. It's easier just to dismiss people as racists Exactly. Too many don't want to look at the reasons why as it would mean accepting that the previously policies, that most of them would have endorsed, have failed.

It's easier just to dismiss people as racistsI dont believe we are a rascist country either. I think that anyone born in the country of any colour or creed is British and am proud of any person representing our country. The potential rise in the BNp is down to peoples frustration that they feel marginalised where our ways are seen as offensive and we have to let what we see as alienways being forced upon us. For christmas carols and cards being banned or poppies not allowed to be worn as they might offend seems to make people fear our culture being erased.

Wiltshire Saint Posted 26 November, 2008 Share Posted 26 November, 2008 Are white people welcome to perform at the MOBO awards, or welcome to join the black police officers federation? Imagine if we had a MOWO awards night on TV, or a white police officers federation. Robsk and his ilk would be in uproar. Yes they are, Amy Winehouse did this year. Although I don't agree with a single view you hold, you were at least posting some reasonable historical facts. The above post has shown you up. IMO I'll have to take your word on that as i'm sure you can appreciate it's not my kind of music. So you made the first comment (and please don't try to argue you were asking a question, we all know you weren't) without knowing? You have insinuated that white people were not welcome at the MOBO awards, it turns out, from J9's post that they are. Even then you say "I'll take your word for it" because you are unable to do a simple Google search. In fact, why not do that right at the beginning before making a tit out of yourself, peddling your racist sh*t. Not only did Winehouse appear, she won an award. My God! A white woman won an award at the Music of Black Origin ceremony!! You understand the term "origin". The ceremony is a celebration of music that has come from the black community. Why not celebrate that? The blues and R&B did originate from the black community in America...or do you deny that as well? In one of your posts you also mention the National Black Police Association and whether white people could join that. What a stupid thing to say. Again, I guess (feel free to correct me) that you are suggesting that this organisation is not needed and is racist in itself by it's mere existence. The point is, white police officers do not need an organisation to represent them. They are in the majority and as the Macpherson report said, the police force is “institutionally racist” (1998). By the way, from the NBPA website: The definition of "Black" does not refer to skin colour. The emphasis is on the common experience and determination of the people of African, African-Caribbean and Asian origin to oppose the effects of racism. Everyone within policing is eligible to join the NBPA (There is no barrier to membership) Maybe that also answers your other question? Please feel free to do a little research for yourself before spouting off, or alternatively, why let the truth get in the way of your racist agenda?

Maybe renaming the party, putting on a suit and tie and exploiting the populist issue of immigration to cover up the ever-present ultimate objective of an all-out race war would have got better results.
