Nick Griffin, hobgoblin of no substance..
The BBC spends bucket loads of money on digital services each year and yet access to its online content via I-Player is ridiculously restricted to the UK. Anyone overseas interested in anything shown recently on one of the BBC's channels has to hope that what you are looking for has been posted on YouTube, where it will always be broken up into 10 minute chunks. Its a big shame because Auntie could in fact take a bold step away from charging tax-payers in the UK the licence fee and make way more money from opening up its archives to corporations, institutions and individuals around the world. The planetary market place is several billion strong, with hundreds of millions of people willing to pay for content. Most people who are avid consumers of online news have already asked themselves the question, "what would I pay for online?" and many would include BBC content in their answer.

22 percent of the country might consider voting for him, according to ugov poll
that tells you they the bnp is thriving on genuine unhappyness felt by the working class
thats what the tory govt coming ins should address
Racism begins with our families, parents, brothers and sisters, aunts and uncles, grandparents, people we admire, respect and love. However, as we grow and mature we come to the realization that what we were told by of family when we were children were slanted lies base on their prejudices. We realize that most people are more alike than different and want the same things, like a home, steady work, a Medicare plan and schools for our children (if you travel you will see this).
We realize that most people are of good hearts and goodwill.
This current climate of blaming others for our woes is not new. We have had this before and we have conquered it .
Remember “Evil flourishes when good men (and women) do nothing”. Raise your voices with those of us who believe we are equal and we can again win this battle.
The bit I love most was where Bonnie Greer gave him a lecture.It was so good..Nick Griffin is now screaming blue murder about BBC after all they went through to put him on the show.
The days are gone when we standby and watch few individuals determine the course of living of the majority.
There are no rooms for Racism these days, and those who still mentioning that obnoxious are still leaving in stone age.
By art of civilization and the global village occasioned by the cyberspace technology, we don`t talk about racism these days, rather we talk about front with which to solve global issues.
but aren't you guys being a bit too harsh? personally i believe the BBC messed up and made themselves and the public in the audience look stupid and idiotic. It felt like a crowd baying for mr griffin's blood.
I personally abhor what he stands for,but you do have to agree with his stance on immigration and 'indigenous' white people. I can imagine if a wave of immigrants (legal or illegal)flooded nigeria and the nigerian government panders to their evey demand, 'neglecting' somewhat the majority of the indigenous nigerian black population, communities changing overnight at an alarming rate and becoming unrecognisable to what you know nigeria to be all in the name of multiculturalism et al... i doubt seriously if we nigerian with our very wicked ways and wicked hearts would be as tolerant. I hope you all remember GHANA MUST GO. and the ghanaians were people whom were very similar backgrounds to us in looks, culture and history.
A vast majority of us are uncomfortable with the way expartes live in nigeria- we were very unhappy by the fact that there was an advert stating 'whites only' for apaprtments in one of the okoya's estates, and felt that nigerians were being treated as second class citizens, a view of which i support wholeheartedly.
Now in the UK Tony Blair in his time as PM took political correctness to a whole new level, and as a result made the white majority in the uk feel less proud to be english, white etc They have bent way backwards to overcompensate for their past maybe or is it trying too hard to appear non racist. I think it is a shame that white people are made to feel uncomfortable about their whiteness and the ethnic minority mouth off freely displaying their own ignorance and racist views.
If the govt be it tory or labour does not tackle this immigration problem quickly and efficiently, unfortunately support for Mr Griffin would rising as a result of the disgruntled majority.
i know that there is an overwhelming majority of white people who support him not because they are racits, but because they don't want to be treated as second class citizens in their country.
Aide from that, he is clearly a loose cannon and he is gaining momentum and forcing the govt to listen.
SAY NO TO RACISM, SAY NO TO FASCISM and more importantly SAY NO TO TRIBALISM!!! Nigerians take note
Anon 8.25am you rock! So pure in heart and innocent in mind....
Thanks for posting the link(s) Jeremy.
obviously this guy is from another planet, but even as a mixed race British citizen, I can understand why his policies resonate with the disenfranchised, poorly educated, jobless, hopeless white members of British society. The make up of the UK has changed dramatically over the last few years due to Labours ridiculous immigration policies, and understandably they feel alienated, scared and powerless over the radical change in the landscape. It is inevitable however that the chickens have come home to roost following Britains 'Great Empire' building that destroyed nations worldwide.
Soon, metropolitan cities in the UK will be completed dominated by other cultures (some already are).Britain is a tiny island, there is nowhere for BNP members left to go and continue their 'indiginous population'.
I recently visited Liverpool after a 4 year break and was astonished by the numbers of Polish and Somalian communities which seem to have sprung up overnight.
What really struck me in the debate was the statistic that 1 out of every 2 african-caribbean children is born to a mixed race relationship. This says 2 things to me: people are mixing just fine to the chagrin of Nick and his gang and why aren't Black british people hooking up with each other??
Interesting debate - Question time is not as erudite as it once was - I blame it on the declining education standards, there were a lot of inarticulate people there. Also what was the point of Bonnie? She had nothing of value to add, why is an American on a show about British identity, pride and heritage?
