Exactly Enough Rope to Hang Themselves
Seems like BNP MEP Andrew Brons has been using his new-found airtime and media presence to help shine a light on the BNP’s entirely not racist attitudes…
Asked about someone like Dame Kelly [Holmes], who was born in Kent of a white English mother and Jamaican father, and served for several years in the Army before becoming one of this country’s most successful athletes, he said: ‘Kelly Holmes is only partially from this country, even if she is an integrated member of the community.’
Yep, Dame Kelly can win Olympic Gold medals for Britain if she wants, but she’s not really British. Not really. Because, you know, well… She’s black.
It’s not racism. No. It’s common sense.
Duh.

What’s his take on Prince Charles? Just asking, since I’ve got as much English lineage as him.
Good point, LT. The entire Royal Family is hardly of pure English descent, so are they in trouble too?
Idiot.
It’s laughable, isn’t it. Here in – ahem – black and white: the reason why racism doesn’t “work”. How stupid do you have to be to confuse race and nationality?
