A YouGov survey suggests that 22% of people would consider voting for the BNP.

The Welsh secretary [Peter Hain] said: "The BBC has handed the BNP the gift of the century on a plate and now we see the consequences. I'm very angry.


This was always the risk, and Diane Abbot said that the programme may well be seen differently outside of London (which Griffin does not class as a British city because it’s full of “darkies”, no doubt).

The sample size for the survey was 1,314 - any statisticians like to explain how such a small number can be trusted to indicate a national picture of several million voters?

Quote:
The poll did not ask whether their views were affected as a result of Mr Griffin's appearance on Question Time.


Quote:
The BNP claims 3,000 people registered to join the party during and after the broadcast.


So, the debate rumbles on. Has the BBC cocked up here?

EDIT: I have copied this over to the other thread. Can a mod lock this one as it’s a dupe? Ta.
