BNP de-registered -- cannot stand for elections

Forgot, or just didn't bother?

Only fielded eight candidates last year. Hardly worth bothering. Especially now Fascism is represented by Corbyn's Labour Party.

Party collapsed a long time ago. I reckon the second option is the more likely one.

The BNP lost most of their loons to UKIP.

Considering a large plank of the BNP's philosophy was virulent hatred of Jews, their loons, as I said above, will now be more at home in Jeremy's tent.

Amazing isn't it?

Apparently 'they only stood for what everyone really thought', yet in the privacy of a voting booth, with no one putting a gun to their heads, the electorate consistently failed to vote for them.

Democracy eh?

The BNP lost most of their loons to UKIP.

The rest went back to the labour party.

Well over half a million people voted for them in 2010 rtb. Quite extraordinary, when their public face was a one-eyed loonbox and every single media outlet span against them vigorously.

Not amazing at all rogerthebutler.

All people knew them for was their racist stance over immigrants.
How many people vote for a party over one issue?
And don't forget, immigration wasn't in the spotlight hardly as much as it is now when they were getting votes.

They have consistently failed to register in any meaningful way with the British electorate, spin it how you like.

They've generated plenty of hot air, not least in this place, but that's all they ever were - an utter political irrelevance, thank God.

Single issue party? Independent Kidderminster Hospital and Health Concern did okay. Media spin against them? Hasn't affected George Galloway and Respect much.

Paid up members 500
Votes last year 1,667

There's no way of spinning such a set of pathetic results.

They got one thing right,they highlighted the problem in Rotherham when Labour were covering it up.
