When Violence Is Permissable

It seems really idiotic that in one of the biggest cities in the country, a city that hosts the world's best football teams, has given birth to some of the best rock and pop acts ever, that's probably one of the most liberal and tolerant and has such a multifaceted identity, that the BNP can claim to represent us. They only won because people were registering their anger at a stagnant incumbent government and because a few skinheads who can't spell "ballot" managed to find their way into a polling station. I wish someone would voluntarily repatriate Nick Griffin's head to a lightning rod.

Let's suspend disbelief though, over the fact that a guy sent to prison for inciting racial hatred has been sent to legislate with people from other countries and that a former member of the British arm of the Nazi party has been elected. Maybe once they come face to face with their demons they'll become traumatised or something. Hopefully a cat burglar or international assassin just passing by will violently murder Griffin in an ironic fashion. I mean, these people can't even string a sentence together without it sounding like pub-talk. In fact I'm pretty sure they wrote their shoddy manifesto on the back of a beer coaster in a suitably British pub, called something like "The White Heart" where about fifteen unemployed 50-somethings spend their days looking trying to glance down the barmaid's top.

I mean, they're like children, with Griffin as their teacher. he's constantly having to restrain them from shouting old policies in case they get arrested. Doesen't sound very organised to me. They can't exactly claim to be sticking to their ideals any more than Labour or Conservative because just a few years ago they patronised involuntarily repatriation, that is, deporting people. The hypocrisy is ridiculously obvious.

Let's think about nicer things though. I ordered a bunch of books so once I've finished Tony Benn's excellent but seemingly endless collection of diaries I'll be nerded up to the max on such jewels as Heart of Darkness and Brave New World. However, I have lost my little diary thing so I have therefore misplaced my ability to remember anything. Anyway, I'm going to go before my computer's astoundingly frustrating slowness destroys me. Au revoir.
