Did Nick Griffin have a chance on Questiontime?
He is just totally the wrong person for lead and be spokesperson for the BNP. The BDL will gain power before him.

superhappy.
they've only said that to annoy people in the vain hope that people are going to believe them. i'll believe they've got a good membership come the general election next year.
no they didn't give him a chance
err the reason most people know about them now is because they've done well in other "elections" or whatever so i guess they already do .. i know in this area and around about the support has been growing

But he didn't get torn to shreds :S when he was actually allowed to answer the questions given to him he did so articulately and politically, and if what he said about his policies on the show is true then there's no reason to attack him. He's said practising homosexuality in your own home (rather than publically) is fine with him, he said he doesn't want to kick anyone out of the country that are already here legally, he explained how he's severed the BNPs ties with the KKK and other such groups and aims to get rid of the racist tagline that they have. The only times he came off poorly is when he either wasn't allowed to retort or when he had to try explaining his dubious past - something which he himself admitted was a terrible thing quite early on in the show, claiming that he's changed his views quite a lot since his earliest statements years ago.
lol@Jack Straw telling the black man that he "may or may not be" descended from immigrants
Also, was alot/most of the audience of some ethic race? I was feeling bad for him. Except I thought in some cases he was fine with it.
That Asian woman on the panel didn't do much. She just said that everything Nick Griffin said was horrid, dispicable and how inpolitically correct he was. ;l
superhappy.
But he was being a lieing ****! If he told more ********, then he would of been a bit of **** himself. I mean come off it. Everytime he did say something everyone booed and laughed at him. It was ridiculous, and if his racist, pathetic party got in, I for one (and I know my parents would) leave this country. The one thing we do not need, is **** like him coming into power.But he didn't get torn to shreds :S when he was actually allowed to answer the questions given to him he did so articulately and politically, and if what he said about his policies on the show is true then there's no reason to attack him.

It was the same thing with Hitler. His ideas at the time were fantastic, when he got into power he had the plans to get Germany out of the trouble they were in. He got into power as he was a VERY good speaker, whatever **** he may have been, there is no denying he KNEW how to get the crowd with him. He KNEW how to speak, and that got him power. Not long after he got into power suddenly he went back to what he always believed.
And let's look what happened thanks to him shall we? MILLIONS of deaths, MILLIONS of casualties.
If you can honestly think that someone like Griffin knows and BELIEVES what he says, then you need to think again.
They've done better. They haven't done well by any stretch of the imagination.
But he did. Which is exactly why he's suing the BBC. I know he wasn't given the chance and to be quite frank, I'm glad. It was entertaining seeing him being bullied and not given the opportunity to speak. When he did speak numerous time people just laughed at him and his stupidity, thus torn to shreds.But he didn't get torn to shreds :S when he was actually allowed to answer the questions given to him he did so articulately and politically, and if what he said about his policies on the show is true then there's no reason to attack him.

I did say "if what he said about his policies on the show is true". I don't know because I haven't read the BNP manifesto but he can't lie on TV about actual policies, I believe that's illegal for a man in his position
Because he's already got a negative image, which is difficult to shift
They're not going to get into power, and as he's said he wants to get rid of the racist view of his party. People can change and I'm not voting for him but I'd like to give him the benefit of the doubt that he wasn't lying
Actually Hitler never abandoned his racist policies and always planned to do away with the Communists and Jews. He got into power because of great unrest, getting people fired up and quite literally tricking his way into seats of power - something Griffin hasn't a hope in hell of doing.It was the same thing with Hitler.

So you disagree that homosexuals should be allowed to show their affection for each other in their own home and that something needs to be done about immigration levels (something that was agreed by all on the panel except for Jack Straw)?
Congrats on completely ignoring the policies and just going on about his personal natureBut he did. Which is exactly why he's suing the BBC.
