I think that was the reasonable expectation, that it would put a nice size dent in the BNP's attempt to seem a reasonable party and it did it.


Were people have said they were always against the BNP and Nick Griffon, but some of the things he said made them think.

The establishment are all patting themselves on the back saying job well done, but maybe David Aaronovitch (Times columnist)has actually realised something others have not:

"I wonder whether we see a different programme from the one that's being watched out in the country? The danger tonight was that the British people, famous for their fair-mindedness, saw one man being beaten up by five other people on the panel, including the presenter, and by an audience that was overwhelmingly hostile to him. "

And in the meantime this has allowed NIck to make a complaint to the BBC which will hog the headlines for days to come. He said he expected to be thrown to the bear pit, and he was, and you can bet this is all part of his post-QT plan.

Meanwhile the so called anti-facist protestors are shown up for the mindless thugs they are once again, and just as bad if not worse just now than those they claim to be against. And teh police take another battering in a situation they can do nothing about.

This whole thing now stinks. It's been an opportunity lost...for everyone but the BNP. And that is sad. :(
