As Nick Griffin talks about the betrayal of the people by the political class tonight, about expense abuses and the way people have been let down by politicians, bear in mind that it is nothing more than a deliberate ploy to deceive.
For the last nine years Griffin’s calculated strategy has been to deliberately manipulate his party’s image to appear electable – but never to actually eschew the party’s aims of “racial purity”.
In 2000, Griffin spoke alongside Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke and white supremacist James von Brunn, who murdered a secuirty guard in a shootout at Washington’s Holocaust museum just this year. At that meeting Griffin outlined his plans for making his party palatable to the electorate, saying:
“The BNP isn’t selling out its ideas, but we are determined to sell them…so, instead of talking about racial purity, we talk about identity.”
But this strategy is nothing more than how the BNP intends to reach its ultimate aim:
“To control of the British broadcasting media, then perhaps one day the British people might change their mind and say ‘yes, every last one must go’.”
Watch the video of that meeting below, and pass it along to your friends.
