vee70 who were you before the ban?![]()
Sorry I think you've misunderstood my question because of my typo.
Here it is again:
Immigration can be past, present and future. Do you think all the BNP protest votes were about future immigration only?
Odd- the cut and paste shows "votes" not "vos".
If I rephrase, do you think that all the people who voted for BNP voted that way because they were angry about possible future immigration only?
The conservative are only looking at future controls. Indeed I don't think any parties barring the BNP have any manifesto pledges about resolving the current state of immigration.
Which brings me back to "who should those who are angry about immigration (past, present and future) vote for?
No, I fully understood your post.
I think you do not understand what immigration means. Immigration is NOT the same as ethnic cleansing.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration
"Immigration is the arrival of new individuals into a habitat or population".
This has nothing to do with the control of people who already live and reside within a country. An immigration policy controls the inflow of people into a country. Again, the conservatives are not in power so cannot change current immigration policy.
The BNP wants to ethnically cleanse Britain and form some kind of white supremacist Aryan race, the dream of Hitler. Thereby, people who immigrated in the past, how ever long ago, who do not conform do the white ideal are selectively prejudiced and forcible eliminated from the country. This is not an immigration policy, even if it only concerns people who immigrated to Britain in the last 500 years.

We call for an immediate halt to all further immigration, the immediate deportation of criminal and illegal immigrants, and the introduction of a system of voluntary resettlement whereby those immigrants who are legally here will be afforded the opportunity to return to their lands of ethnic origin assisted by a generous financial incentives both for individuals and for the countries in question.
As far as I'm aware the BNP view anyone who came here legally; waited the 8 odd years and got their British passport as British and are only interested to deport all the people who do not hold British Citizenship (or asylum seekers who were given it).
But they undeniably want to ethnically cleanse the UK as far as legally possible which is why they are offering financial incentives to encourage people to go back to the countries that they originated from.
If there were stronger measures available to them such as forced repatriation then it is possible that they would use it. So I don't think that they only want to deport non citizens, they seem to want to deport citizens as well.
They are offering people the option of taking the money and going back ... they are not forcing anyone.
Some might chose that option
BTW, before I get flamed ... I do not support the BNP; but I do see a few decent policies amongst all the other useless stuff.
Do you want your taxes spent on helping people leave the UK?
Do you want to have areas of city look like you are visiting Pakistan, or India (South Hall until a few years back, parts of Leeds) or Poland or China?
I would not be opposed to voluntary removal of people who refuse to integrate into the wider British society or of Chavs (even if they are British).

Where would they go? Who would take them? If they didn't want to be here, wouldn't they leave without prompting?
So what is an immigrant and what is an immigrant population? A policy on immigration can certainly include future immigrants as well as current immigration populations.
If you read the remainder of the wiki article and not just the first line you'll find:
The modern concept of immigration is related to the development of nation-states and nationality law and/or citizenship law. Citizenship in a nation-state confers an inalienable right of residence in that state, but residency of non-citizens is subject to conditions set by immigration law. The emergence of modern nation-states made immigration a political issue: by imagining its populations, in violation of multi-ethnic, multi-'racial', multi-cultural realities 'on the ground', as homogenous blocks, constituting a nation defined by shared, single ethnicity, 'race' and/or culture. Legal and political restrictions on the presence of foreigners is a highly controversial political theme because such restrictions are introduced and maintained by states whose citizens have had a major, sustained and deeply consequential presence in states other than their own.
It certainly seems to deal with people who "have a presence in states other than their own"........ It also seems that non-citizens (current immigrants) are subject to immigration policy. After all not everyone who emigrates becomes a citizen and has a right to remain......
So in summary I guess you either don't understand the question or don't understand "immigration".
vee70 what about people who do work and pay their tax but chose to not integrate into the British society and culture?
Because a vast majority of people like different cultures. Indeed, it is a major reason people go on holiday to foreign countries - to get emmersed in the cultures of other peoples. Thats why I love the work place I'm at now, 14 diverse cultures in 18/20 people.
Different languages, different cuisine, different music, arts, movies, different traditions. Its all fascinating. Besides which I love eating
pizza or curries!
You argument is a completely circular childish argument over semantics, trying to flee the real racial reality of your argument.
Cuttig the cow excrement:
1) The conservatives and no other mainstream party have a policy for the forced removal of non-whites from Britain.
2) The BNP support the removal of non-whites living in the UK.
If you want a party that will eradicate and evict non-whites then your only option is to vote for BNP.
If you are concerned over general immigration issues then there are plenty of choices. If you don't like th available choices then you can be pro-active within your local politics. Perhaps attend local Labour/Lib Dem/Torie meetings and discuss with them.
Precisely, for many people -and doubtless for some BNP voters it is about sheer numbers of people coming here rather than their racial origins...As an aside, in some ways it's not an entirely bad thing that the BNP are around. At least this way the racist bigoted morons make themselves known and are a more quantifiable factor in British society. Better the devil you know...
In seriousness I think that the problems with employment and the like in this country is a numbers game
For the benefit of D.P. could you confirm that you are an immigrant and that changes in immigration policy could affect you even though you already live here?and something does need to be done about the immigration (I have to be careful here as I'm a Kiwi living here on a visa) and the BNP have a certain point about the current EU situation with having to allow anyone else from the EU into the country.
That in itself needs to be addressed if only in a manner that stops Britian from being a target for benefit bludgers.
I work hard and both myself and my fiance had to qualify under a very stringent points system to get into the country and we have no recourse to public funds as stipulated on our Visas. I personally think that immigration within the EU should be approached in this way (or similar). People going to New Zealand have to deal with the same system as we had to - it means that we can't just turn up and expect to exist on the back of the working public and I agree that this needs to be sorted, i.e. the system needs to be fixed but it should NEVER be on the basis of racial accounting.
I wonder if the queen will be repatriated.
