Lebanon voted against their fascists; Britain elected a few

Would like to point out though, that this was a PR election (proportional representation). They actually polled fewer votes in this election than they did in the last European elections in 2004. Approximately 6000 fewer votes this time; but because turnout was very low that meant they were a higher proportion of the vote.

You're kidding. There is actually a racist party there where people get elected? WTF?

Yes. Their rules state that only indigenous white britons can join. They believe in 'voluntary' repatriation of non-indigenous people and I believe they want 'peace walls' (like in Northern Ireland duringthe troubles) to separate those who don't want to go 'back' from us whiteys.

They are generally very careful about how racist their material is. There are laws about inciting racial hatred. Occasionally they breach them and one of them is prosecuted. They also have a 'youth' movement., Yep, with camps and education programmes and all.

Theyre actually a softened down version of the old National Front party. And one of the new MEPs was prosecuted for holocaust denial (as indeed was their leader, Griffin) and racist violence.
