The leader of the B.N.P. is due to appear on tonight's Question Time, and is facing protests from those who think he shouldn't be given a platform to air his views, and the policies of his party.

As much as I detest and abhor everything the B.N.P. stand for, and for what they really stand for, under their new glossy veneer of respectabilty, if they are allowed to hold public office, and aren't an illegal political party, then I believe they should be free to appear on programmes like this.

I still hold the B.N.P. wouldn't have the growing suppport it sadly seems to have, if our mainstream political parties were seen to be tough on immigration, and addressed people's fears, which according to a recent MORI poll published on Sunday, puts immigration second only to job security, in things that worries the electorate.

( Note to mods, please don't move this to the television section. This is about the issues surrounding tonight's Question Time, not the programme itself.)
