I'm up to 6 or 7 viewings myself now.

Also, anyone watch HIGNFY tonight? I loved the quick dig at Nick Griffin that was on there. You have to remember of course that it was filmed before last night's question time.

Unfortunately as the crowd were really having a go at him, he can continue to argue that him and his party are being persecuted and demonized. Things like the "Dick Griffin" comment aren't going to make him look as bad as actually having a respectful discussion, where he would have to show his true colours instead of acting like he's just misunderstood.

I agree - it's too easy to shout and demonise. I also think the other parties do have a hell of a lot to answer for.

 

Having said that, hand me a gun and I'll deal with him.

seems a shame that all the 'have a go at Nick Griffin' agenda meant Jack Straw could get away with ignoring legitimate questions.

Up for a 'UK Govt persuaded BBC to allow BNP onto QT to give Labour an easy ride' conspiracy theory? :)

It would actually be interesting to see if there's a particlar party that tends to lose out more than others as people switch to the BNP.

hahaha - nah

I just noticed that, when someone directly asked Straw if uncontrolled immigration might not be the best idea in a recession with record unemployment, the question was unanswered.

Oh no. Jon's would be more along the lines of "Tony Blair personally rings the director general of the BBC in order to persuade the BBC to allow BNP onto QT to give Labour an easy ride".

It's just not a solid Labour conspiracy theory without TB grinning wildly in the background. :)

TB grins inanely more than wildly! :)

TB is keeping his head down until he gets the EU presidency, as predicted here about 4+ years ago

Heh! That about sums him up!
