    It needs to be discussed. The rise of the BNP and thier ilk is frightening. Their support is based on ignorance (in the true sense of the word).

    We beat them in the seventies and we will do it again.

    I have often challenged people when they come out with racist remarks. The funniest was a gay man in work who was bemoaning the fact that the council was slow in processing his claim for rent allowance and he came out with the old chestnut 'if I was an immigrant they would give me everything'

    I pointed out that perhaps a a member of a persecuted minority he may like to think about how another persecuted minority would feel, ie immigrants.

    He just mumbled and walked away.

    The BNP and their ilk are not the only ones who concern me.

    Radical religous group of all persuassions and im sure other groups with a dodgy agenda will be concoted to take advantage of the issue.

    Which will have got worse particulalrly in London when all the big London Councils will not be able to care for those suffering hardship

    Remeber if people cant get help in London they will move to other areas to try and get help. Which will burden other smaller councills.
