BNP Off The BBC

October 21, 2009

The BBC has invited Nick Griffin, leader of the fascist BNP and a man with a criminal conviction for denying Hitler’s Holocaust, onto its Question Time in London.  Anti racism and anti fascism campaigners will be protesting outside BBC offices everywhere on the day the program goes out.  The broadcasting workers’ union BECTU has said that it backs the protests and that it will support any of its members who refuse to take part in making the show.

The BBC says the BNP should be treated as if it were a democratic party. But there is nothing democratic about the BNP. It is a racist and fascist organisation dedicated to kicking every single black and Asian person out of Britain.  Griffin himself wrote: “When the crunch comes, power is the product of force and will, not of rational debate.” He isn’t interested in impressing people with his arguments – he wants to back up the BNP’s slogans with “well-directed boots and fists”.

This is not an issue of free speech.  This is an issue of the BBC bending over backwards to give publicity and therefore credibility to an avowed fascist organisation who would try to deny even the most basic rights to those who are black, Muslim, gay etc.

If you’re disgusted by Nick Griffin and appalled by the BBC’s decision to host him, come join the protest outside the BBC on Thursday 22 October.  Please bring friends, family & workmates.

Please pass this message on to everyone in your address book and download the poster to print and display in your workplace or college.

Hope to see you this Thursday at 5pm.
