As the EDL/BFP merger of fascists gathers pace, does it spell the end for the decaying carcass of the BNP?The last week has been an interesting one for the far right. The EDL has merged (to a point) with the British Freedom Party. Whilst the idea of having a ‘street wing’ and a ‘political wing’ appeals to many EDL supporters, for some it is abhorrent. The far right blogs, discussion forums, and social networking sites have been a hotbed for debate and discussion about this issue over the last few days. Well, they start off that way, but the in a typically fascist fashion, people are blocked or thrown off forums for disagreeing.
The British Freedom Party is reporting that they are struggling to cope with sheer volume of membership applications they are receiving from EDL members. With the BNP’s plummeting membership, due to Nick Griffins idiocy, the watering down of their policies, and financial shenanigans, there really is a gap in the market for the BFP/EDL. I suspect that many BNP followers will now drift over to the BFP as they see numbers rising from EDL members having dual membership. Is it beyond the realms of possibility that in a year’s time it will be the BFP that is the leading far right group in the UK? With membership numbers going in polar opposite directions fast, the perilous financial situation at the BNP, as opposed to the very successful merchandise thievery by Robinson, anything is possible.
EDL members are viewing this as a direct challenge to the BNP, and therefore do not support it, whilst others are pleased because the see the BNP as finished, and are looking for something new.
One of the other big issues seems to be the concern that they will split the far right vote if the BNP and BFP stand in the same area. They should not be overly concerned with this, as they would only be splitting 1.8% two ways in each constituency.
Many are welcoming being part of a ‘legitimate’ political party whilst still being able to participate in their favourite pastime of getting full of ale and threatening people in the street. This is a pastime which the BNP have tried to move away from over the last decade.
I can imagine Fuhrer Griffin fuming at this. He has brought his party too close to the centre ground for most UK Nazi’s, and he may well pay with the death of his party. Or I may be wrong, and the BFP just turn out to be a flash in the pan. Either way, I will enjoy seeing them stabbing each other in the back as only fascists can.
As a side issue, have you noticed that as well as Pepsi, the BFP logo has striking similarities with that of the British Union of Fascists?

They will be called the English Nationalist Party (the ENP) shortly, as the SDL will not be involved!

The EDL sem to be fragmenting at a accelerating pace. I really dont see them as being rivals to the BNP. According to the electoral commission, the BP have 160 members, an increase of 50 would be overwhelming for them. If anything, i see this as the EDL imploding and its members drifting to other parties. The leadership of the EDL may have gone to the BFP but its members are not that political, all they want is a punch up. I think Robinson may have gone down a cul de sac
The EDL and the BFP have not merged, all the EDL are saying is that the BFP are their preffered party of choice.I dont thing it will amount to much, the average EDL member is not even registered to vote and show zero interest in politics. They are just football thugs who will when the EDL goes under will go back to chasing each other down the road. The EDL are falling to pieces,many will go back to the BNP, or which ever grouo they came from.
BREAKING NEWS: MORE CALLS FOR GILAD ATZMON CONCERT TO BE CANCELLED
http://www.thejc.com/news/uk-news/58942/more-calls-gilad-atzmon-concert-ban
The festival organisers stated this week that Gilad Atzmon's "philosophical and political writings stir up keen arguments about identity politics within the socialist movement, as well as a strong reaction from their main target, the Israeli government".
As a matter of fact the Raise Your Banners crew are wrong. The Israeli Government will welcome the opportunity to tarnish pro-Palestinian movement with real authentic anti-Semitism.
Gerry Sutcliffe, the Labour MP for Bradford South, said: "I am extremely concerned about Gilad Atzmon's presence at what should be a celebration of music and art. His previously stated views are extremely offensive and the organisers of the festival were wrong to invite him. It is not too late for them to rescind the invitation - and I would urge them to do so." He added that allowing Atzmon to perform would be a "stain" on the city's "long and proud tradition of fighting discrimination and extremism of all kinds".

The idea of having a street wing and a political wing stems from Osawld Mosley.
I really hope it doesn't mean the end of the BNP - not when they could limp along like a eunuch in a pissing contest and keep the FR divided.
So after spending years trying to disassociate itself from threatening street demonstrations and the resltant bad publicity, the far right is now courting the same - it's political suicide for any serious apsiring political party to be seen cosying up to such groups.
Nothing to worry about poll wise - but street wise thats a different story.
Their violent opposition to a United Kingdom, in every true sense of the word United - and their scary 'protests' that are nothing more than disruptive disturbance of the peace will mark the EDL/BFP out as not worthy of a vote (and give HnH/UAF plenty of ammo to use against them)
Black white and Asian UNITE, we are strong we are human and we are British and no fashman can take that away from us.
How about q sweepstake on how ;ong it will be before one of thier members is convivted of "kiddy fiddling"

Shouldn't the motto be something like 'In Vino Stupiditas'?
