[Closed] The BNP's ironic use of Sptifire

The "master race" seem to have been using this image for several months despite it being widely publicised:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/4935429/BNP-uses-Polish-Spitfire-in-anti-immigration-poster.html

Nick Griffin and his idiot chums aren't fit to lick the boots of the [url= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/303_Polish_Squadron ]Free Polish[/url], let alone understand their history.

I like to think some downtrodden graphic designer commissioned to produce the poster sneaked it in as a protest.

It says they (the Polish 303 squadron) were the RAF squadron which scored the highest number of kills in the Battle of Britian.

The Polish thing is irrelevant.
[i]As I am sure some of you may know the BNP has taken great pride in using a photo a Spitfire in its recent literature. However they seem to have chosen the wrong plane[/i] as the Spitfire was used in the fight [b]against[/b] fascism.

also the spitfire aided in the defeat of fascism and aren't they fascists? 😀

Spitfire was used in the fight against fascism.

My thoughts exactly, although I dont think they proclaim to be the brightest, do they?

Wish someone would gatling gun that Racist cretin using a modern A10

Bloody lefty do gooders having a go at the BNP.Political correctness gone mad I tell you.

I mean when a rabidly zenophobic /racist party can't use a foreign force fighting to defend our country from fascists as a reason to vote for them then what is the world coming to?

Outraged of Englandshire

It all makes me laugh - you could also say the Spitfire was used to keep foreigners out of the country. Thereby suiting the BNP's manifesto.

lol @ junkyard

Nick Griffin and his idiot chums aren't fit to lick the boots of the Free Polish, let alone understand their history.

Just read through that link. Stunning stuff. Thanks for the link. 🙂

The BBC could be a bit cleverer in the way they handle BNP. They could, for example, invite Nick Griffin to trace his family history on 'Who Do You Think You Are?'... I'd have a small wager that somewhere in the not too distance past he is somehow related to Jonney Foreigner. Or get Paxmen to ask Griffin if he wants to extradite the Queen back to Germany... Doesn't take much to find flaw in their ill-conceived 'policy'.

[i]Or get Paxmen to ask Griffin if he wants to extradite the Queen back to Germany...[/i]
quality idea. That'd get my vote.

Even if Griffen is anglo saxon they are german invaders displacing the indigenous peoples of Britain. Probably a ruddy Norman tho. Bleeding frenchies

i remember a dna trace programme on bbc2 a while back

they took a mix of people one west indian guy was upset to find he had white ancestors but some fat bnp esque biker woman was absolutely horrified to find she had romany genes and wasnt the pure blood anglo saxon she claimed to be - she threatened to sue the show

even griffin would never be stupid enough to put himself in that position

Good old Daily Mash comes up with another angle [url= http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/news/war/racists-undermining-army%27s-mission-to-kill-brown-people-200910202151/ ]here[/url]

Did you guys see the BBC programme a few weeks ago about the migration of homo sapiens out of Africa? Seems all of us outside of sub-Saharan Africa are descended from about 100 brave souls who made it across the Red Sea together.

Now THAT is bloody interesting and is what I'm going to tell my kids is important. Puts all this Anglo-Saxon-Celt stuff in perspective. I think Fat Nick and his pals are just a bit thick, despite him going to Cambridge.

Probably a ruddy Norman tho

According to the BNP constitution membership is restricted to "indigenous British ethnic groups" including the "Anglo-Saxon folk community" and the "Celtic Scottish folk community".

No mention of the Normans then. So if Griffin's ancestors came over with the Normans, he shouldn't be in the party.

Quite what the BNP have against the Normans, I don't really know ......you would have thought that after more than a thousand years it would be alright for them to stay 😕

Do the BNP really use the term 'Celtic Scottish' in their s**t?
Leaving aside the fact that 'Celtic' is only a term to describe some linked cultures/ language groups, they certainly were not a defined racial group- there would have been Celts of all colours due to their widespread trading and migration.
Though you wouldn't expect idiots like griffin to appreciate that.

Even a 12 year old kid know that is a polish squadron.
at least i learned when i was 12 and having that exact plane as an airfix model.

I was just thinking of that very same programme. The woman was the funniest - I remember the look on her face. You knew it was coming though. "I believe I'll be shown to be white anglo saxon as far back as you can look...."...Hmmm, really love?

Do the BNP really use the term 'Celtic Scottish' in their s**t?

Actually they do. But I appear to have done the BNP a disservice by grossly oversimplifying the requirements for BNP membership. The details apparently are as follows :

[i]"The indigenous British ethnic groups deriving from the class of "Indigenous Caucasian" consist of members of: i) The Anglo-Saxon Folk Community; ii) The Celtic Scottish Folk Community; iii) The Scots-Northern Irish Folk Community; iv) The Celtic Welsh Folk Community; v) The Celtic Irish Folk Community; vi) The Celtish Cornish Folk Community; vii) The Anglo-Saxon-Celtic Folk Community; viii) The Celtic-Norse Folk Community; ix) The Anglo-Saxon-Norse Folk Community; x) The Anglo-Saxon-Indigenous European Folk Community; xi) Members of these ethnic groups who reside either within or outside Europe but ethnically derive from them."[/i]

I have no idea what the "Celtic-Norse Folk Community" and the "Anglo-Saxon-Norse Folk Community" are, but that presumably covers the Normans then.

Still, it's nice to see that the BNP membership requirements covers a whole range of racial groups.
No one can accuse them of being racist........ that's for sure.

also the spitfire aided in the defeat of fascism and aren't they fascists?

If they were proper fascists, you'd think they'd do the decent thing and get themselves dressed a bit better than they do currently. That Griffin chap always seems to be wearing ill fitting suits. His tie/shirt combinations never work for me. And the lack of headwear and armbands is a dead giveaway that they're merely trying hard but not hard enough.

No chance you'd ever catch Benito, Adolf or Oswald ever going out dressed so shabbily.

[i]The Celtic Irish Folk Community[/i]

C'mon! 😀

I'm in then...I thought I'd be for the (jack)boot!

EDIT: Just realised, I'm not much into folk...will that we a problem. I played the tin whistle for a few years when I was a kid.

Unfortunately my Frankish ancestry doesn't appear to allow me BNP membership .........so they can't expect to count on my support then.

Bearing in mind that potential BNP members are not always the sharpest pencils in the box, I wonder if any struggle when filling in their membership forms as they try to figure out whether they are Anglo-Saxon-Celtic Folk Community or Anglo-Saxon-Norse Folk Community ?

Or even more perplexing, Anglo-Saxon-Indigenous European Folk Community ?

Of course it would be a lot easier if they just said, "whites".

.....but then of course, people might think that they were racists 😐

Just realised, I'm not much into folk...will that we a problem.

Nah.......just sew some bells on your shoes and skip as you flick your handkerchief
......I'm sure the BNP will welcome you like the prodigal son 8)

That list of people who are allowed to join must be really difficult for them to put together. I bet they wished they were allowed to just write 'white people'. What a bunch of eff heads though, it's so sad they've got a lot of other eff heads voting for them but that's democracy, you can vote no matter how thick you are.

I don't think the normans are included in that lot are they? Not anglo saxon, not norse, not celts. However the peoples from the Indian subcontinent are Caucasians.( in most classifications)

the whole classification of people into races is a bit flawed - even anthropologists can't agree how many there are and who fits into what group. I suspect the original britons were short dark and hairy types
