Right.
The BNP stands for British National Party.
They are a political party in the UK.
They have been in the news recently because they made gains in local council elections and in elections for the european parliament.
If you are a BNP supporter, you will say that the BNP stands for getting illegal immigrants out of Britain, getting Britain out of the European Union, and generally doing more to help what they would term the 'indigenous people of Britain'.
If you are opposed to the BNP, you will say that they are a racist, whites only party - determined to see Britain as a whites only country, and sympathetic to other facist and nazi organisations around europe.
Take your pick.

The UAF fulfill a want of the mainstream events in keeping the BNP far off from the universal public rostrum. Bit like the customer/hooker venture. Politicians could desire to hold out their "democratic" credentials like a load of washing yet do no longer recommendations making use of the UAF for the grimy paintings. The Police are controlled via the Politicians so there is little hazard of UAF contributors certainly being arrested or of Police intervention. what's certainly irritating the political hierarchy and agencies like the UAF is that, even with their ultimate efforts at vilifying the BNP over the years, they have nonetheless controlled to benefit 2 MEP's. hence the gathering %. of the UAF's campaign born out of desperation. there is an previous asserting "you may no longer fool each and all the folk each and all the time" because of the fact the left wing in this united states of america is now realising.

The BNP are a party that wants to bring in national service and remove our rights to vote unless we complete it.
My Mum has worked as a nurse for years and would not be able to complete national service. It is right that the BNP would stop her from voting?
Click the links, read about the BNP and then decide for yourself.

BNP = British National Party: a far-right party that only allows white people into membership and seeks a white-only Britain, where only those of Anglo-Saxon, Celtic and Norse ancestry will be allowed to remain. Anyone not conforming to this definition of national identity will be 'voluntarily' repatriated to their country of origin.
Mainly plays on people's fears about immigration, cultural differences, economic depression and hard-line anti-Europe (having attacked MEPs of all parties for jumping on the 'gravy train', two BNP members have just got themselves elected to the European Parliament).
History of violent racist and anti-left attacks, from which the current leadership try to distance themselves.

They are the British National Party. I have not read their policies but they are a right wing party who belive that the British people born in Britain should have more rights over those who were not born in Britain. The media says they are racist and would send black and Asian people back to their own country. You can read their policies presuming they have a website. Two of them were voted in as Members of European Parliament, but this was seen as a protest vote against Labour and Conservative parties, because of the Expenses Fiddle. I would not touch the BNP with a forty foot barge pole, that said it is interesting at present because in a democratic country ther is a lot of pressure to stop them having their say, which i disagree with.
They should be allowed to speak out and be properly challenged by the rest. Blair bombed Iraq despite millions protesting, this is the double standards i despise.

It's a political party that other political parties in power right now like to smear and demonise via the media of which they have control over.
But the BNP do seem a little severe and extreme.

BNP stands for Britain for British people, anyone who is here illegally should go and anyone who is a threat should go, that to anyone is common sense? unless you like the idea of terror attacks? they have been banned from speaking their mind because the government only allows freedom of speech to minorites now and not the average joe

Think about this. We saw 60+ years ago the development of a party who wanted to racially cleanse the whole of society to make it a little more paler. They were not ashamed of their blatantly racist platform and when it power executed it with pure brutality.
Now, imagine a high ranking Nazi official was frozen, put into a cryogenic frozen block and taken by British troops back home only to thaw in 2009. He would vote for the BNP.
